[ A day when Subaki admits that he didn't do something perfectly? Is the world ending? She's worried about Corrin, of course—even more worried now, after hearing that he was crying—but this is a rare moment. She likes it when Subaki lets his guard down a little around her. ]
If... If he was that upset, then maybe there was very little you could say to make things better. He probably just needed someone to talk to who would listen to his troubles.
Even in that state, you were the first person Big Brother thought of.
I think it's more likely that he didn't want to worry you or Takumi about it, the others are untrustworthy Nohrians, and it's not as though Felicia is ever much help in anything.
[ He'd be surprised if she can even work her carrier without somehow breaking it. Him being chosen for this comforting session was only a matter of sheer logic. Now, if only he hadn't failed so reprehensibly. He still can't forgive himself for it.
That reminds him-! Something he and Lord Corrin had spoken of... ]
-But please rest assured that should you have arrived here as a man, I would have still happily served you, my lady. You would still be you, and I could see myself serving no other but you.
[ ...OK. He said something weird just now, didn't he? He probably shouldn't have brought that up at all. ]
...Ah, it was nothing. Nothing at all. What were we talking about? I remember! Your hair looks especially lovely today, Lady Sakura. Did you do it yourself?

You're more optimistic than I about this... I seemed to have failed him on many levels. He was crying, of all things. I made him cry.
[ He doesn't even understand how. Only that he hates having such a blow to his otherwise flawless record. ]
How could he not have accepted my perfectly comforting words?

Um... m-me... a man? Subaki...?
