If I am the acting methuselah, I usually ask "So the action is over?"
before moving on to my next action. Stops them saying 'oops, i meant to
play Cat's Guidance (now that i see you're playing Force of Will
there....)', but the phrasing also helps to not give then outright
prompts, the way asking something like "Any reaction cards at the end of
the action?" tends to do.
