One last thought about Robin, but the mention of combining him and the Hasans reminded me of how when Guy Fawkes was apprehended, the man who uncovered the Gunpowder Plot branded Fawkes and his men as "Robin Hoods". Obviously this was just meant as a pejorative but it would be funny to see a Robin-Fawkes hybrid Servant.

Huh. Why hasn't there been a Guy Fawkes servant yet? Feels ripe for a 2*.

Once and always and nevermore.
The whole point of magi is preserving a legacy. That's why magic crests exist. So sacrificing your children to preserve your own existence would theoretically be taboo, because you're killing the chance of your family being preserved (not so say that some mages will do it zouken/darius/the dude who summoned gil in SF)
It's the casual sociopathicness that defines mages, but when they do horrible experiments on their children, it's for a reason.
In Case Files, the Iselma sisters want to seek asylum because they decide their father's magical experiments on them are risking the preservation of their magecraft.
Also, it's more of a Bathory thing to do
Is there a reason why doing whatever you want with any spares set to inherit nothing would be a problem?
A spare is a spare is because you never know what might befall the heir. If you'd prefer to have no spare, to get the spare out of your hair, you may despair when your heir is suddenly no longer there.

Once defeated, the one who blundered, again rallies and recovers.
From the sense of an arisen cloud of dust, turning up again.
The dustcloud rolls up, exemplifies violence of spirit.
Once again it comes around.

Sola's family being like "oh, that's a shame" wrt Kayneth dying while being like "literally whomst?" wrt to Sola dying lives in my head rent free (because it's funny)
This. This is why she is best girl.
Do you think magi blaspheme verbally? Like, you know, "oh my god", "Jesus Christ", etc etc. Or would that be kind of... idk, I can imagine reasons why they wouldn't. Or do you think that aspect of normal people culture of the countries they live in is so dominant that it slips into their language anyway?
All this only applies to magi that use languages where people blaspheme, obviously.
We should ask Nasu in terms he would undoubtedly understand.
"How much do english-speaking magi talk like Joseph Joestar?"

We know that Zelretch doesn't, which is why the japanese will never forgive him.
A realization inspired by the debates in FsF: Lemina Eltfromm is a hot female Kayneth.
- Mage trying to add brains to a lineage with a big history of solving problems by brute force.
- Moe loser in an arc about entering a Holy Grail War naively thinking they are prepared.
- Third wheel in their two teammates' romance.
- Waver is the only mage who seriously believes in their chances of victory.
Only the zoomers.
I thought only Yggdmillenia survivors were mentioned and appeared there, but Waver also makes appearance in Lost Einherjar? And even knows Lemina?
Depends on your definition of appearing. Waver doesn't show his face or is namedropped, but whenever the novel shows the Grail War stream chat, one of the participants is very unsubtly Waver (has Military Tactics as his username, corrects other commenters on the magical minutia of what's onscreen, is the only person seeing the potential in Lemina's strategies, etc).
Wow, you said the magic words to make me care about F:LE and now I'm all in. Goddamn I love this specific breed of moe loser. It could only be better if she was in love. I adore characters in love.
I've honestly considered it.
What's it like to be a zoomer mage.
The definition of a zoomer keeps expanding so we're going to know sooner rather than later
