## Event Details

LAUGH-LAST refused to hear out the Pact unless THEE-I-DARE complied with a set of demands. He wanted THEE-I-DARE to come "crawling back to him" and insisted he knew what he did, saying THEE-I-DARE was a "born liar and a dirtbag."  DIE-FOR-YOU doubted that THEE-I-DARE would bow to LAUGH-LAST's demands, and since THE-MEASURE-CUTS joined, he believed LAUGH-LAST would hate being left out. THEE-I-DARE commented that LAUGH-LAST was "dangerously lonely." THEE-I-DARE was initially hesitant to give an apology, stating that he was the one that deserved the apology, due to LAUGH-LAST selling him out to SPEAK-AS-ONE and getting his hosts killed in the Cull that followed.[*citation needed*] However, as time went on, he acknowledged that he played a role in how bitter and vindictive LAUGH-LAST had become, due to shunning him in times following the split of the First Tribe when perhaps all he wanted was to be applauded. THEE-I-DARE wanted to apologize to him in order for him to agree to join the Pact, even at the cost of his pride.

THEE-I-DARE's offer of an apology was met with silence. Instead, LAUGH-LAST expressed interest in allying with HUNT-THE-STRONG, despite being fearful of him and laying on thick compliments about him whenever HUNT-THE-STRONG's name was invoked. He stated self-preservation was his priority, despite pleas for him to join the Pact. HUNT-THE-STRONG acknowledged LAUGH-LAST's interest to join him but believed he wasn't strong enough to be of interest. However, he said "if LAUGH-LAST would like to talk, he knows what to do."

THE-MEASURE-CUTS had his own message to send to LAUGH-LAST. He stated that he would ensure LAUGH-LAST's safety should he join the Pact, and said he would be welcomed in. LAUGH-LAST brushed it off after being told of it due to only hearing the offer secondhand and not "straight from the horse's mouth." However, he acknowledged that THE-MEASURE-CUTS was not one to "make up bullshit."  LAUGH-LAST continued to be uninterested in joining the Pact unless THEE-I-DARE made a public apology, but after being convinced that "the show might end" if he became a victim of HUNT-THE-STRONG, he agreed to hear out the Pact, if only to have the chance to make THE-MEASURE-CUTS laugh. THEE-I-DARE hoped his only motive was not to lust after SEED-THE-GRUDGE, and encouraged LAUGH-LAST's Chosen to convince him to not attempt to woo her. LAUGH-LAST knows he is in a strong position, and wants the Pact to make offers in addition to THEE-I-DARE's apology. THEE-I-DARE requested suggestions for what SEED-THE-GRUDGE can offer him, warning that she will tear apart LAUGH-LAST otherwise, and the Pact will lose his hosts.

LAUGH-LAST feared a trick, but the vouching of others helped and he agreed to meet. THEE-I-DARE believed LAUGH-LAST wants an apology for two things. First, an apology for being shunned by THEE-I-DARE’s hosts during the time of the First Tribe. LAUGH-LAST used the Word to make jokes and TID saw that as a threat. Second, an apology for THEE-I-DARE coming to Redacre and demanding war, when LAUGH-LAST just wanted to have fun and twist SPEAK-AS-ONE’s hosts and be a subtle trickster. LAUGH-LAST responded by setting THEE-I-DARE up and forcing him to use poor tactics.
