No in-fiction tools, but get a good handle of where the tense situation ends up: My bear winds up in the boat shed, so naturally my bear partner-in-crime should fall out of the event specifically *in the next room.*
In-fiction way to handle the tension: "Eve, you've successfully gotten the nuke away from the terrorists and behind that pillar. They've got you pinned down with gunfire. ..... Flynn, which weird spot do you suddenly fall out of, and how do you look doing it?"
