Well, I did reseach on African communities and language. I had a list of phrases to have for Daniel's notepad. Since most of them were contemporary phrases and I wanted to show a "less advanced" society until the reveal at the end, I decided to use them as a humor device and make things worse for Cameron and Daniel.
Also, I'm pretty sure this idea started off completely different but I can't remember right now. It only started to really take shape when I merged your prompt with Aiz's prompt.

Dean never was supposed to get infected, either. The brothers ended up having their own involved stories - I think - compared to where I originally started. I also changed some wording around to make the child stealing sound less perverted ;)
And I did a ton of research on bogeymen so I could use it as a basis to make my own myth.

I never thought I would be pleased with writing ship in SPN fic, but I enjoyed writing Jo and the Dean/Jo aspect was a lot of fun. Making Jo go back to school for theology was a spntaneous decision and one that has become my own personal canon because I like it so much.
The story was a real learning experience.
