If you were genuinely disinterested, you would as like as not simply not show up for play. If you were truly indifferent, it wouldn't matter that the players decide to concoct a ritual to transport themselves to a magical land of hope and wonder where everyone is some variation of a beautiful, majestic small horse, and where the affection that arises between close associates is itself a form of powerful (even sometimes dangerous) sorcerous energies. It wouldn't matter if the players decide not to adventure at all, but to set up a small curio shop together with their initial money and exclusively do money-trading. Etc.The DM is not disinterested. The DM is outright interested; they WANT to see adventure, and even the most sandbox DM wants the players to play in the sandbox rather than ignoring it entirely.</blockquote>
