That includes Lady Ironheart?

Lady Ironheart was the first fusion and definitely had white hair.

So my current fascination: Characters babysitting styles. How would your do it? I am particularly curious over the differences when Charles and Erik babysit together or separetedly.

It depends massively on the circumstances and I'm not sure I want to spend the time and mental effort figuring it out.

I am immediately confused when an Edie starts calling herself "Emma". I'm constantly confusing her for an Emily.

"Fairfax" would also accomplish the intended reference, and would more closely parallel Doolittle (he's not nicknamed "John").

I am constantly confusing her with my Emma, so I know how that goes :)

Yeah, it seems to be more of an ambiguating nickname than a disambiguating one.

...ooh, this exists.

The personal languages setting from here...

...what's it called?
...is there any magic other than the personal languages which are presumably magical and the Midera thing?
...what's the tech level?
...are you going to write that setting again? Should I add it to the worlds list?

How would your Abrahamic god character react to leaning about the situation in watch your step, where asking parents to murder their children actually was a solution the local deities were considering, and can you (or she) explain how the binding of Isaac actually happened (if at all) in her world?

The binding of Isaac happened; Isaac was never actually supposed to die, it was in fact a test of what she could get Abraham to do. She was really desperate to figure out some way of exerting leverage on Earth and has since grown as a person enough to be deeply ashamed.
I can't get her to answer your question about the eclipse thing because whenever I try to posit a concept to her involving an Arda her response is to attempt to plot Melkor and Thauron's murder.
