Somebody Else's Space Program

Lost and Found Four
Notes on what is missing:
Early on, the hruss are in exile. I need a palace coup where the royal family is restored. This might be after Jheraind is killed, and if so, Ross's rockets might play a significant part.
I really ought to have forced Ricky into an unhappy marriage, from which Worrell rescues her. Or at least have her have to fight to get a career other than as an heiress. I might change this in the re-write.
Ricky and Worrell's experiments. And demonstrations to the admirals.
Russian equivalents. They're the ones blowing up Ross's people.
Drum's reaction to Ross going to the hruss. Have to see if that's covered when he visits Drum and is introduced to Patrick...er...
Ross's other lovers. Did he actually get tackled by Mairyonven? Decide and write it that way. Does he go through self-hate? Or do the hruss just keep him too busy in bed to worry about it?
Medlen keeps him around for a while. Who next? Is he actually between lovers when he runs into Drum again? Is there a pass made? Obviously no long term hard feelings.
Get a time line drawn up. When did Ross turn 16? Between 16 and 18, Jheraind dies. A year later, Envyss is born.
After Dual Flight Five, Drum helps them build a new computer set up.
More disasters? Lose an Apollo? Lose an EVA?
Screaming match between Envyss and his father.
Does Envyss get the documentation at his mom's house and leave most of the originals there? Does his dad know about all the docs?
What _does_ Frank want in his bed? How old is he really?
Does anyone get a kid from either Envyss or Ross?
What does Narayana do? Is she in love with Envyss?
Does Envyss get another flight before Ross retires?
Where's Gretchen? (puppy dog)
Aunt's funeral?
Uncle's funeral? Ross and Drum both attended, before hruss visit Drum's shop.
Drum's relatives? Obviously, Ross didn't know Drum had gotten married.
Do the Akshobhya have a space program? They have the greatest engineering schools...
Other fathers for Mairyonven's kids.
Josgoroth's mom and the other kids from Jheraind. Other male lovers for Jheraind? One of them takes care of Ross when he first gets to the capital
