It was a bit of a bear to work out (pun unintentional) and in the end it was Vladimir who was the key, as I had suspected he would be. I'm very glad you singled out the Vladdie/David interaction; rereading it, it's my favorite part too - there's a real sort of yearning, longing spark between them that makes it work, IMHO.
And oh, poor Savvy. I have to admit the thought of him in a free-for-all with three guys 10 years younger is pretty damn funny.
