May the force be with you!
Professors who want to have a movie-like romance are invariably creepy.

"Um, Professor, I have something I'd like to consult you about, is that okay?"

A student at the university

called out to the professor timidly.

The professor was in front of the blackboard in the large lecture hall,

for some reason humming a tune

and lightly stepping to the beat.

"Oh, what's the matter?"

"Do you have about 10 minutes right now?"

"For you, I'll take 15 minutes."

(What a pain...)

"I-is that so... my family runs a farm, but it's tough for just my mother to handle."

"That's a line from 'Spider-Man', isn't it... but when I think about the future, I get kind of scared."

"Well, "}, {There's nothing to fear. Things that are far away just look big, and things that are close look small."

"What is that supposed to mean..."

"That's what that cat-like doll thing said in 'Whisper of the Heart'. I'm pretty sure the director wasn't Hayao Miyazaki, though."

"O-oh, I see."

"And also, "}, {Fear is not real. It is a product of thoughts you create. Do not misunderstand me. Danger is very real. But fear is a choice."

(So long... I want to go home already.)

"What movie was that from, and who said it?"

"I forgot the title, but it was in that movie Will Smith starred in with his son that flopped at the box office."

"That's a bad omen!"

"True, that was probably just my ego as a parent coming out."

"I don't really care about that, but... it's just that we're only taking classes online because of COVID, yet the tuition hasn't changed... when are you going to start regular in-person lectures, Professor?"

"No, well, that's... not yet... well, to put it in one word... "}, {Do or do not. There is no try."

W-wait a second!

I'll wait for you in the future...

"Gross!"

"That ending in 'The Girl Who Leapt Through Time' is just so emotional, isn't it... How about we go together sometime..."
