As anyone who sees this knows, I've been in a reading frenzy since the beginning of the year. With the writers strike, you'd have thought I'd have gotten caught up on my TiVo (Ugly Betty, nip/tuck, & Heroes are the three main ones, haven't watched any episodes this year), but I've been deep in another obsession, and voraciously reading the Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter series.
But I was thinking just last night, that one of the characters Narcissus in Chains seemed to have no real purpose in the story to me, or maybe I'm just reading so fast that I missed it.
What purpose/part did Gil the werefox have to do with anything? He seemed to just spend his time terrified, huddling in a corner, or wherever he was. I don't even remember anything being mentioned about what happened to him at the end of the story.
What was the point of that? *confused* Most of the characters I can remember being introduced before either played some integral part to the fic, or if it seemed slight, their part was at least wrapped up.
Or did I just miss something?
