(kind of a "mandate" thing) It's actually really weird that Jeanne doesn't seem to have Divinity in her parameters, considering David, Saint George, and Martha all do (though not much). I initially thought it might just be antithetical to Christian mythology, but since multiple other Saints have it, feels weird (though notably, George and Martha are from before the 4'th century, so they are MUCH older than Jeanne, which might affect the nature of their legends, and hence, their Divinity. Jeanne is more pious than divinely empowered, I suppose) She does have a Saint trait, though. I also still have no idea how that "oh yeah, La Pucelle consumes my body, but don't worry, my host body is okay" works.
I got the Kaleidostick idea while rereading parts of Trinity Angles, since you mention Galen doing that for extra FnaF knowledge (though it sounds uncomfortable). I'm not sure if the idea would come to Frid (since the entire permanent memory download thing might take a while, and is an unusual use of the ability, plus he specifically hasn't done it before), and Sapphire being sentient, it might be easier thought of than done. At least she's not Ruby, though. This also assumes he learns about his counterpart in Servant Universe, but that is probably going to happen.
That, of course, leads to the possibility of there being many Frid/Galens throughout the multiverse that keep ending up in timelines they considered fictional. Presumably Zelretch finds their suffering amusing, or he considers them somewhat useful.
