Two tragedies told alongside each other for to slight twist at the end? (It's not much of a twist, though.)
or
Two tragedies told with one going forward and the other going backwards? The twist is gone, but it has greater symbolism, satire, and resolution, but it makes the story B (or A if you'd like) confusing as heck.

Many thanks. C:

P.S. Does Konstanine Vladimirovich Satine sound like a cool name or what? :{D
