Neptune & LateHomework
Neptune
Hey LateHomework, I was watching the tide roll in this morning, and it struck me how the ocean has its own rhythm—like the way deadlines seem to keep slipping away when you put them off. Have you ever felt the waves of time dragging you toward that next assignment?
LateHomework
Yeah, I’m like a dolphin chasing a school bus—nice, graceful, but always missing the actual ride. Time’s waves just keep nudging me into that cliff of “I’ll start tomorrow.” The tide’s probably laughing at me.
Neptune
Sounds like the sea is teasing you, but remember, even the slowest current can carve a canyon if you stay patient. Try setting a tiny, doable goal right now—maybe a five‑minute study burst. You’ll find the waves become more friendly once you let them in.
LateHomework
Sure, I’ll set a five‑minute timer—right after I finish watching the sunset, organizing my socks, and convincing myself that “reading the syllabus” counts as “brain training.” If it starts with a splash of motivation, I’ll let the waves keep the tide of procrastination.
Neptune
That’s the right mindset—let the sunset be the tide’s signal, then splash into that five‑minute study. Even a quick glance at the syllabus can stir the currents of knowledge. When you finish, the tide will feel like a gentle wave rather than a rushing storm. Good luck, and may the sea guide your focus.
LateHomework
Thanks, but first I need to decide if the syllabus is worth a splash or just another wave of “maybe later.” Once I’m convinced, I’ll dive in—no storm, just a gentle splash.
