Relating and Connecting to Others

In many a story, there comes a time when the hero or heroine relates to or connects to another person or living thing. This usually happens under these circumstances: Forming a friendship, sharing experiences, and especially allowing others to understand their problems, often leading to some advice or compassion.

Examples

 * Harry Potter finds a connection with a snake at the London Zoo, sharing his troubles with it.
 * Aladdin and Jasmine form a bond when they explain their troubling circumstances with each other.
 * Lucky Prescott forms a bond with Spirit when she explains her troubles and experiences.

Quotes
"(Aladdin, showing Jasmine the palace: Wow, the place looks amazing, huh?) (Jasmine, disappointed: Oh. It's wonderful.) (Aladdin: I wonder what it would be like to live there. And have servants and valets...) (Jasmine: Oh, sure, people who tell you where to go and how to dress...) (Aladdin. That's better than here. You're always scraping for food and ducking the guards.) (Jasmine: You're not free to make your own choices.) (Aladdin: Sometimes you feel so...) (Jasmine: You're just...) (Both: ...trapped.)"

(Dudley, impatient: Make him move.) (Uncle Vernon raps on the glass with his hand.) (Uncle Vernon: Move!) (Dudley also bangs on the glass.) (Dudley: MOVE!) He's asleep! (Dudley, with a sigh: He's boring.) (As the Dursleys walk away, Harry turns to the poor snake.) Sorry about him. He doesn't understand what it's like, lying there day after day, watching people press their ugly faces at you. (The python raises its head.) Can you hear me? (The snake nods.) It's just...I've never talked to a snake before. Do you, I mean, do you talk to people often? (The snake shakes its head.) You're from Burma, aren't you? Was it nice there? Do you miss your family? (The python gestures with its head to a sign that says "Bred in Captivity.") I see. That's me as well. I never knew MY parents, either."
