AND AGAIN!
If the reader feels that the other VUX are in the wrong, that's their interpretation of the events. As for the Beast, I don't think ZEX was in the wrong for endangering his people because I don't think he knew that was going to happen. Given how extensive and how long ZEX has worked on his menagerie, I believe he would have the strongest containment units possible and, up to that point, have been able to safely contain any creature that he wanted, since he's still alive when we meet him. Since he's never had something break free before, he has no reason to think that it will this time. I don't think he was ever willfully, knowingly endangering anyone with the Beast, and I don't think he was in the wrong for wanting it.
There's also this one (http://www.ashido.com/sc2/ZEXCaptainbadtiming1.GIF). Why would he flirt euphemistically with the Captain if he didn't at the least consider him an equal? That seems pointless and random (if not just for unsettling straight male players). If he wanted the Captain, why not just take him like he takes everything else, instead of playing coy and flirting with you? Trying desperately to make you feel sympathetic towards him, appeal to you as an intelligent being, refer to the two of you as being the same?
I don't see the entire thing as being quite so premeditated... rather a decision he came to while you were gone getting the Beast, realizing that this might be his only chance to have a human and that he should take advantage of it, so he prepared accordingly. It's a slight difference, but it's still there, you know what I mean? I think we just fundamentally view him in a different way, which is fine, but I don't think I leatherpants him. I put a lot of thought into all of this.
I wanted the ZEX-gets-attacked storyline to show that there would be consequences for what they were doing, and to get an outsider opinion on the entire thing, rather than tragic noble ZEX, so it's interesting that it came off that way to you. The problem with doing the caps is that you only tend to hear things from ZEX's viewpoint, and as a result you tend to sympathize with him while being completely unaware of what might be going on that he's not telling you, thus the sidefic exploring that where he's being completely irresponsible and selfish about it. It's hard in the context of a one-on-one conversation with someone to tell the reader something that ZEX would lie about or simply omit. That's part of why I had DAX come in to try and explain to you that the entire thing was dangerous and that ZEX was being shortsighted and selfish, and that he just views you as another member of his menagerie in a free-roaming kind of way.
