How are Harry Potter and Bruce Wayne connected?
What is the connection between Harry Potter and Bruce Wayne? Although at first glance they are from completely different genres, one fantasy, the other superhero, without any magical ability. Potter being quintessentially British, while Gotham is set in America. There are more similarities to these two characters than there are differences.

Fight Or Flight
I heard the distant mumble of words in the distance. I couldn’t tell what the words meant. In front, it was as though a mosquito net obscured my vision, and as I began focusing on the shapes, the greens, and browns, I realised I was outside.

30 - Hold
30 - Hold Everything about her was miniature. Her tiny fingers and nails, her mouth, and eyes. She stared back at me like a lost lamb looking for comfort. Her head feeling warm and fuzzy. She was a pink ball of skin wrapped around me, looking for some comfort in her crying need. Her eyes started welling up, water droplets dropped, bouncing on my shirt.

29 - Dig She fell over something squelchy. Mud covered her clothes down to her hair and her boots, which she didn’t mind getting dirty, as that’s the reason they were made. She picked herself up, luckily, she was on her own and nobody else seemed to be around her in the forest she was walking.

27 - Stranger Entry One - I start this journal, yes, a journal, [because diary makes me sound like a little girl] as I start my new life in the country away from the traffic and fumes of the city. Somewhere new to call home, where everything is slower and calmer. I’ll have time to think!

25 - BITE
26 - BITE I bit into Satans fruit. Unlike the fairytales were beautiful Princess suck their teeth into the voluptuous taste, it’s juices pouring down the throat turning any feeling into luxury before gracefully falling on the floor, something soft to break their fall, I didn’t.

23 - Catch
23- CATCH I’ve always felt left out, like the odd one out in a pair of socks. Something that is here but really shouldn’t be. In school, being an outsider isn’t the best thing to decide to be and it’s not as if you have a choice. You just roll up on your first day acting just the way you are and before you know it you have been sorted into a category.
