[case in point, white gets the gentle, annoying pinch of a memory: he's floating above a chaise in a huge marble and stone building. there's no natural light, but there are candles, and braziers, and--ghostly apparitions? coming and going, standing in groups, spirits.
in front of him is a handsome young man with flaming feet, and another grey-skinned man in a hood with white hair and a large scythe.
in a familiar voice, white is saying, "Oh, I love making my lists... I always illustrate the edges, each one is unique! That way anyone who gets to review the work, it's a whole experience, you know? But... I guess it does take up a lot of time."
the man with the scythe says coolly, "You'll have to work around the constraints of your responsibilities. You do take breaks, don't you? Before and after each break, maybe that's a time to make sure your own list of priorities is up-to-date."
and white responds, "Wait, my own list of priorities...? But, you're saying I can just go and make a list... for me? Huh. Whoa. Whoa..."

sloth doesn't seem distraught over this really. they sort of thoughtfully hover, and then shake their head.]
