dozens of council meetings, and there was yet to be a single topic that interested him.

most of the time jax lost an hour of his life to watching five old, rich vampires bicker with each other, something he hadn’t expected when he’d agreed to take the vacant seat. he’d thought these meetings would have more… direction, at the very least, especially given what’d happened to all of them just a few short months ago.

written for the final day of @rodappreciationweek 2021. here i’ll be discussing ride or die’s use of the image of the mirror and the use of the narrative foil trope, specifically with mc versus five characters: logan, colt, mona, jason, and ingrid.

ride or die arguably is one of the best choices stories which make use of the narrative foil trope. others that come to mind are blades of light and shadow and surprisingly, foreign affairs (which i’ve touched a bit on here, but it’s executed far more weakly than blades or rod, mostly due to the storyline being a standalone when it was obviously planned to not be).
