Let a shared scene move on without waiting for a player who walked away

A scene waits until everyone presses continue, and one person has gone to make tea. Here is the rule for when the group may go on, why a scene must never run on with nobody there, and what the waiting player sees.

Why this works

A group should wait for people who are there, not for people who are gone. Telling the two apart by recent activity keeps the story moving, while requiring at least one ready person means a scene never plays out to an empty room.

When not to use it

Skip it when the scene is a deliberate pause the whole group must see, such as a vital clue or a sad farewell. There wait for everyone, and let the others see who is still missing.
