This similarity or coincidence interests me,
particularly the part of me that likes
journey-as-a-group/team-of-adventurers -themed stories,
mythologies, and movies such as
Lord of the Rings, X-Men, Star Wars, Star Trek,
Fanboys, Avengers, Voltron, Captain Planet, Mighty Ducks, and more.
I feel as if the individuals of these mall-visiting groups
individually entered the mall from its different main entrances
(like, each of them are representatives/leaders
hailing from different kingdoms or different fields of study
or each of them have a very unique skill-set or ability)
and they’re all meeting and banding together at the mall
in order to address and face a threat so big
that it requires them to put aside their differences and join forces.
Or maybe they all entered the mall together,
and they eventually split up (and plan to reunite
at the end of their journey) in order to respond to different
unexpected dangers located near or from the different main entrances,
and each danger or obstacle is somehow specific enough
for a particular individual member of the group to handle.
