    This document outlines the setup and rules for a roleplaying game where two players take on characters and have a fictional argument by taking turns stating grievances they have with the other character. The players first agree on boundaries for the game and decide on their characters and setting. They each privately write down a few mundane or unreasonable grievances. Players then take turns stating a grievance from their list and writing down the other player's responses. This builds up tension as the argument escalates over several turns. Once one player runs out of grievances, the characters discuss resolving the short-term conflict and predicting long-term fallout before checking in with how the roleplay made each player feel.

    The Setup

    ● Agree that this isn’t intended to be real


    world personal, and to what extent this
    draws on your real relationship.

    I’m Just Fed ● Decide on lines you will not cross, as


    players.

    Up With You ● Decide on subject matter you will not


    play with.
    By David Bell
    ● Agree that grievances can be rescinded
    outright, and that play can stop AT ANY
    A game about a fight that’s been brewing TIME.
    that needs to happen. ● Agree upon a setting and who your
    ● Take turns describing a grievance characters are.
    ● Take turns putting it out on the table ○ Are you on a space station?
    ● Roll (six sided die) to see who talks next Are you on a farm? Do you
    ● If on Crit - You get to pull something work shifts at a record store?
    back from the list to use again. It's the
    ○ Pick a place where two people
    worst. (“I just can’t get over this”/”Again,
    will exist close enough to
    this just bothers me SO MUCH”/”I just
    gather a list of grievances and
    can’t believe you…”)
    pet peeves about each other.

    1 Crit and Switch


    The Build Up
    2 Switch player
    1. Decide who goes first, and have that
    3. Switch player
    player describe a grievance, and add it to
    4 Keep going their list. Let this be something mundane
    5 Keep going and easily noticed, already public, or
    maybe even a completely reasonable
    6 Crit and keep going quibble. Say it out loud, and write it
    down on your own list.
    ○ Surely they aren’t going to
    have a problem here, it’s just
    how your character feels!
    2. While the other person is talking, write
    down your own grievance. It does not
    even need to be related. Just start
    thinking and writing. Do not say this one
    aloud, and maybe even make this one
    disputable, scandalous, or otherwise
    unreasonable.
    ○ Their character isn’t going to
    listen anyway, right?
    3. Do this for just a few turns, maybe 3, or
    more. But, about 6 grievances should
    give you enough to play with. Take
    however long to get your lists ready.

    The Argument
    Roll a die and whomever rolls highest gets to
    set the setting and take the first turn. Pick
    something from your list, and put it out there.
    Let your character speak it into the air. Make
    your point. Let either of you speak on it, or
    not. Then roll again, taking your queue from
    the outcomes above.
    The argument is over when one person has
    exhausted their list of grievances.
    How do the player characters move on from
    here? Discuss how this resolves in the short
    term. Predict the fallout in the long term.

    Ending Play, Checking In


    Check in with each other before leaving the
    table. Nothing needs to be taken personally.
    But if so, address it!
