When you write a scene, make sure you've thought about what each character wants from that life moment. Do this and you're characters will seem alive and real, and so will the scene. Fail to do it and you may end up with passive, background dead-weights, who make the reader unconsciously wonder if you've forgotten about those other characters, or lost interest in them.
If you've written someone into a scene, make sure they're there for a reason. Give them something they want.
