[Rejection, as ever, flows straight off Gilgamesh's back, harmless as a stream. If anything, the reaction brings with it a pleasant rush of nostalgia. For all the world has taken from her, his proud, upright Artoria remains, bold enough to challenge her fellow crown and threaten him in the same breath. He peers after her, and says nothing, because he doesn't have to. They know the score. Adra's just getting a front row seat to arguably the most one-sided romance in history.
The King orders move on, so they move on. However, he thought he'd heard the trace of something in her tone, something odd... something like I expected more, but should've known better. It bothers him for reasons he can't quite explain and doesn't care to dwell upon for more than a moment.
Gilgamesh brushes it off and follows Adra's line of sight to the mural. Pushing foliage out of the way, he reveals what it depicts in full: a dragon locked in some sort of mating ritual with a harpy. Or it appeared as much, as they were posed sensually together, gazing at one another as Gilgamesh had been not moments ago with Saber.
Ordinarily, he wouldn't pay it much mind, but the presence of a door nearby makes him suspicious.]
I wonder...
[Wonder along with him, comrades. Possibly stop him before he gets any worse ideas.]
