Once dia left for the moon bortz realized that their battle maniac ways led to dia wanting to leave for the moon on their own. Notice after the night raid they were suddenly much more mellow? the reason they fought so hard left for the moon and then after phos was taken out the lunarians stopped attacking. So they realized that they dont need to be the battle maniac anymore and turned to what they liked (jellyfish farming/breeding) and let their feelings for Dia become distant since he confirmed that Dia did leave on their own. Bortz has been shown to be very perceptive with psychological issues with the other gems with regards to combat (told zircon about how their constant worry about yellow makes them a weaker fighter) so they would be able to analyze the best way to handle dia. Now with dia on the lunarians side attacking them bortz is telling them the truth and provoking them to draw them into a protracted battle to give the other gems time to prepare. So its not that they never cared but they didnt know how to handle it until it was too late and they found their own purpose.
You know it occurs to me that bortz became like this because they cared about dia. They were a battle maniac since thats what they needed to be to keep the gems that were important to them (dia) from being taken. Now this had the issue of causing dia to feel horrible since bortz was able to stand out and be the best at literally everything. I think that bortz may have internalized the issue and not know how to handle it since well.....they are the problem and fighting is necessary since the lunarians keep attacking.it's disheartening to see that dia is still hung up on bortz but bortz seemed to have never cared. at first a battle maniac, now they're content with a peaceful life and looks so apathetic towards dia while gently gazing at cinnabar, it makes me frustrated for dia
