Not derivative in any way, hon. You've gone an entirely different direction with the characters and the story, and your prose style is very different than Max's. Don't sweat it.
I loved the use of that line too, and because it's fic, you can use it to twist the knife for the reader in a way you can't for an original work.
So, OUCH! Whimper whimper. Can't wait to see what happens next.
