You know...I really don't like the idea of Charlie being dead. I'm fond of him as a character (kudos to the actor who played him for making me feel that way about a relatively small part). But I needed someone who was chummy with Bodie and not at all scary as a character. I toyed around with Marikka, but she threw off the B/D dynamic, so Charlie got the nod. I'm so glad you had fun with this!
