st jennifer of disasters

While trying to find a female saint to patron an order of militant demon-killing nuns, I ran across this: Female Patron Saints

There is a Saint Jennifer, patron saint of disasters.

My life is prefect, jsyk.

Also, if anyone can offer up a saint to name an order of militant demon-killing nuns after, I could also use suggestions. St. Jeanne d'Arc seems a little too on the nose. This thing is over 180,000 words, so really, why not have a militant order of demon killing nuns? That's the question you gotta ask yourself, and truth? No reason at all.

Honest to God, this spn fic from hell was started as a writing exercise to get back in the mood. The mood has not yet passed. On the other hand, exciting moment; I realized because of location of some parts, I could use y'all in dialogue finally, and my God, you have no freaking idea how magical it is to finally have command of a second person plural pronoun while writing. It's beautiful.

You could always learn Russian for the plural second person.

I'm kind of wondering how it would work now to break into Russian during dialogue now. I took Russian in college, so assuming I could find my homework from freshman year, this is vaguely tempting on a theoretical level.

I could also break into the vosotros form of Spanish, which would have the added advantage of useful exercise for work.

Tempting.
