[ It's not as if Setsuna can't relate to that. No, it is because he can that it angers him so. But it's not an excuse to lose sight of one's self. He stares for a while longer; although his lips remain as flat as ever, they might be a little more curled down today. Although he lost his Innovator senses, they were still replaced by a Knight's senses. He can clearly see the waning mana within the King and that displeases him. This person wants to escape... This really feels like a repeat of Graupera, and he's already made himself clear back then. He doesn't want to do it all over again. So he won't.
Instead, Setsuna lets the King settle the moment alone — to recall and piece himself together without the young Meister to handhold him through it. Although it may seem cold, it's the opposite. It is due to this Knight's intense faith in his King that allows him to do so. Gilgamesh is stronger than this, so he will let him regain his own strength with his own power. Didn't they assert that to each other face to face? ]
Do not jest yourself. If you truly wish to honor him, then you know what you must do.
[ Hallucinating over Enkidu's memory wouldn't do that, but instead cherishing the real memories of him would. To never forget what that person told him and would wish for him...
Setsuna isn't looking for excuses either, so he won't ask Gilgamesh to explain himself. After saying those words, he seats himself beside the pitiful King. This is the most that he can offer him, for now... ]
