Shrug. "It's still--most people wouldn't do that? Like, yeah, it's less fair, but it's also safer if fewer people know. And, um, you told them when you still thought we were--" good people. "--on your side? I think? Whereas you told me after--everything."

"You apologised."

"I guess, yeah." Zam rubs behind Guenhwyvar's ears.

Guenhwyvar rolls over onto her back to show her belly.

Very tentative belly rub? 

Guenhwyvar is melting and kneading the air.

Drizzt is looking on affectionately.

Guenhwyvar is so good?? Drizzt is so good???? What did Zam ever do to deserve this. 

Sorry Zam, he's interacting with people (and cats) who are trusting and starved for interaction.

Zam will just...continue petting Guenhwyvar until she decides to move off his feet.

When she does: "I think I'm gonna go now, if that's okay--? Um, unless you had anything else you wanted to tell me."

"This is all I needed to tell you."

"Okay. Cool. Cool cool cool. Bye!"

Time to leave. ...And by "leave" he means "walk for a while in a random direction, find another hole to hide in, and wait for Drizzt's second layer to turn off before actually heading back to his base".

Drizzt spends some time with just him and Guenhwyvar, and heads back to his makeshift base. 

Once Zam is confident that Drizzt is no longer in the area, he puts his crown back on and heads back to his own base. There's a small shack on the surface like a villager house, but the real base is at the bedrock layer under a lush cave. Not impossible to find, by any means, but it's small and the world is big and he'd rather not lead Drizzt straight there.

He paces, talking to himself as he does. He messages Mapicc and Ro. They confirm that they've known for a couple weeks and they were planning to tell him if it became relevant but Drizzt wasn't doing much after Medusa so it slipped their minds. He tries not to wonder what else they're not telling him and fails. He tries not to think about what he just saw and fails. He opens his DMs with Parrot, once, and then immediately closes it and hates himself for even considering it. He paces.

The rest of the evening at spawn is quiet. Leowook finishes constructing the dome; nothing much else happens. 

Drizzt checks if the dome, for example, has doors. 

Where the path leads in and out of the spawn chunks, there's an arched opening that lets you go in and out, yes; it's not even symbolically closed off. As far as non-symbolically, it's not a cube of obsidian, it's made of glass on top of dirt; it's trivial to get in and out wherever you want.

So he's a little less concerned than he was, but he still very much does not like it. It would be trivial to block the archways in a fight, for example. 

drizzt whispers to princezam: the dome is done. 

PrinceZam whispers to Drizzt: ok

It's obviously a power grab but Zam's not really that worried about it, especially since he's an APO member and presumably in Leo's good graces. He passes the message on to Mapicc anyway.

Drizzt goes to kill some spiders (he still feels weird about doing that) so he has webs in case of a future confrontation with the APO.
