If I want to use Shaw's *version* of the character, of course, then it's quite clear I'm borrowing. :) That publishing in the U.S. clarity is very helpful, though, so I'll feel safe as I'm writing and see if the idea even pans out. (It was a brainstorm I had on the edge of sleep last night, so who knows whether or not it will work when I get it onto paper. *g*)

Thanks again for all the advice!
