According to
http://www.dictionary.com , "pathos" is nearer to "compassion" than "sympathetic". At least, that's how I feel it

Sympathetic is good enough, implying a sharing of emotion.[/quote]"Sympa" has a nuance with conviviality that miss "sympathique" and its exact synonymous "sympathetic".
Well... as you said, it is good enough even it it doesn't exactly fit the context
