Here are some examples of what does and does not count for this event!
Yes: Ian's voice was heard, though the image was hard to see. There were two people sort of visible, one seemed to be Ian but flickering in and out. The other seemed to be changing rapidly between two different people, making it hard to make out the features of either.
"Ben?" Came Ian's voice. "Ben! Y-you're alive!"
The flickering man spoke. "Barely. Where have you been? And why didn't I leap home? Why do you look so different? W-why are you looking at me like that?"
The scene faded out.
Yes:
Ian with hair a mix of red and blond, a dark haired woman, a blond woman, and a dark haired man stood in a room full of computer equipment. With a sudden almost panicked look, Ian started counting.
"One two three! ROCK PAPER SCISSORS!" As they counted, Ian and the dark haired woman threw rock paper scissors.
Ian threw rock, the woman threw paper.
"GODS! DANG IT!" Ian said, clearly upset. "Why do I keep losing?"
"Ian," the blond woman said, as the dark haired woman smiled, "always go paper."
"That's not how statistical probability works."
The scene faded out.
Please note this is right at the upper edge for how detailed and how long a snippet should be.
No: Ian walked into a red lit room where many people were playing poker. A dark haired woman at one end of the table seemed to be enjoying herself immensely. Until she saw Ian. Then she looked like someone pretending to be having fun, but the tension was visible in her face.
It was visible in Ian's.
"Hey," Ian said softly. "It's turtle time," the words were said with weight, gravitas.
All traces of amusement left the woman's face. Ian nodded.
The woman leaned forward to the others at the poker table. "If you had pocket kings, you would have raised pre-flop.
One of the other players, a man with a cigar gave her an intrigued look, neither confirming nor denying.
"I call," she added, putting her chips in.
"Dang it," the man with the cigar said, throwing in his cards. A seven and a five, both red.
The woman gave a feline smile as she dropped a pair of queens face up. "Cash me out," she said to another person at the table, "and put it on my tab."
"We just got started!" the man with the cigar protested.
"Hey," the woman said, smiling at him, "At least now you got a shot at winning."
Ian opened the door and nodded out to the hall. The woman drew close and dropped her voice to something hardly more than a whisper. "Tell me you're not about to say what you're about to say."
The scene faded.
Basically, it should not be a whole scene, even if the scene in canon cuts away at an odd point. And it should not be super detailed. The more people the less detail. But even if it is only your character alone, unless the detail makes things confusing or can be fun to play off of, err on the side of less detail.
Also please remember to spoiler tag.
Oh, hey, why not one more example?
Let's take one from Xion this time!
Yes
A small figure in a dark cloak, hood hiding the face stood. In the figure's gloved hand was a Keyblade that looked just like Xion's. And it was pointed... At Lea. He looked either pained or scared or worried. Hard to tell.
Examples!
