There is, however, an implied set of "normal" activities. If you're doing anything extreme or outside of the norm, for example, using toys or hitting someone you should ask for consent. Most people aren't going to ask for consent, for example, between sexual positions. Generally, inviting your buddies into the room to participate is very far outside of the realm of normal activities and 100% an act that would require additional consent ahead of time.
Also, you should be in tune with your sexual partner and give them enough space to be able to say no at any time, as initial consent doesn't mean ongoing consent. You also shouldn't be putting people in situations where they are too afraid, pressured or intoxicated to say no.

Essentially this. If your partner suddenly doesn’t seem into whatever you’re doing, I feel like this obvious just from the change in body language, becoming tense, no emotion. Unless you’re really unable to get a read on people, this is when you should back up and reevaluate everything going on.
