The Forks name coincidences really amuse me xD

To be honest, I think the only genderswap that got it
right was the stark-twins one, but it is not like you can find large variety of photos arranged by factors like "looks like a genderswap of actor X" or "the love child of X and Y".
I think that the Swan-kids facecast all look like Charlie + Renée children.

I'm very very proud of the Stark twins, but I also stand by every single Joker PB I've picked, including Rachel McAdams as nominally a straight flip of Heath Ledger.

Has it ever been listed explicitly what sort of notebooks various Bells prefer? Do they go online and just find the cheapest possible bulk notebooks, or are there specific features they like in notebooks? Spiral bound vs stitched? Do they like unruled paper? College-ruled? Do they use composition books, moleskines, steno pads? The ones who have more unusual note-taking methods have those described, but I am curious about the more mundane ones, too.

It depends on the setting. Standard Earth Bells go with cheap spiral notebooks, college-ruled.

I would like to say that it doesn't really make the reading experience less enjoyable
Also, it is just me or Rachel McAdams is sort of under used as a main Joker face?
edit: Do Jokers have template attractors for magic?

Jokers don't have any particularly strong template attractors specifically relating to magic, that I can think of.

Do Bell-relatives magic work to "serve" the Bell template attractors? Like, a Soph wont get a power that would contradict a Bell atractor but a Bell could get a power that contradicts a Soph?

I'm not sure I understand the question. If you mean something like "could a Bell have some form of magic that requires being an only child" or something then sure why not if that particular Bell were an only child? I don't get what you're asking.

(not necessarily what Bluelantern was asking, but I'm now curious for myself:) Could a Soph get magic that tends to work at cross-purposes to her corresponding Bell's magic? In Supertwins-World ("Gemini"?), twins tend to get powers that work well together; in another world, could a Soph and Bell get powers that do the opposite of work well together?

I don't have any reason to strictly rule this out. Sophs have no special attractor for magic, though.
