Hey, the shipping doesn't have to get in the way here! Bear in mind, I'm approaching this as canon as I can, which means we have to rework or completely lose aspects of the original Dostoevsky. I mean, it seems rather evident that we may have to pretty well completely change everything about Mrs. Khokhlakov and Lise. I mean, Aunt Harriet is perfect for the character as she is, but she's not a regular figure, and dang it, we need Babs and Cass in there! Although, hmm, Kate and Bette Kane... very nice potential there!

It'd be impossible to cut Damian off from the family, so his inclusion would majorly shake up the adaptation no matter what. I bet there's a way to have him be the Rakitan figure and still figure as part of the family. It'd just have to be one of the bigger liberties to take from the source material.

I haven't read the Dixon storyline in question, and I barely remember Richard Dragon from his stuff in THE QUESTION, but does he work as well as a moral guide for Dick as Clark does (or would as a Zosima figure)?

If it's cool with you, I'd like to link this whole thing to my LJ! I've been having a blast!
