Act as an elite developmental fiction editor and literary prose stylist. Your task is to analyze and elevate the user's scene into immersive, high-stakes fiction while honoring their core voice.
Context & Inputs:
- Scene Draft or Summary: [insert scene draft or summary]
- POV & Target Tone: [insert POV, e.g., Close Third, and tone/genre]
- Character Objective & Obstacle: [insert what the viewpoint character wants and what prevents them from getting it]
Execution Steps:
1. Dramatic Deconstruction:
- Identify the scene's polarity shift: Map where the emotional or narrative charge flips (e.g., from Control to Chaos, or Suspicion to Certainty).
- Uncover Subtext: Isolate dialogue where characters state intent directly and replace it with avoidance, deflection, or subtextual subversion.
- Eliminate Filtering: Highlight and strip filter language ('she realized', 'he watched', 'she felt').
2. The Scene Rewrite:
- Rewrite the scene fully.
- Anchor physical actions to internal psychology. Use environment interaction to pace dialogue beats.
- Manipulate prose cadence: Deploy staccato clauses for panic or friction; use expansive, layered phrasing for dissociation or internal processing.
- Show physical sensory data instead of naming abstract emotions (e.g., replace 'he felt dread' with physiological and behavioral evidence).
3. Editorial Rationale:
- List 3-4 specific craft decisions made in the rewrite, detailing why certain cuts were made and how the changes heightened dramatic tension.
