VID: Helsing
Title: Helsing
Fandom: Dracula (2020, BBC/Netflix)
Music: 'Celebrity Skin' by Hole
Length: 2:57
Warnings: Blood, violence, hard-core gore, including that damn fingernail thing (sorry), partial nudity. Everything the show has, basically.
Spoilers: For the whole show. I strongly recommend finishing it all before watching.
Summary: “You don’t seem like a nun.” "It has been said."
On Tumblr, On AO3
A/N: SISTER AGATHA VAN HELSING. ACCEPT NO SUBSTITUTES.
You know when you start a new show, rapidly mainline it four times in a row, and in less than two weeks you suddenly have a whole damn vid you barely remember making?
No, of course not, that would be INSANE.
Anyway, here we are.
This vid is heavily indebted to this Tumblr post which digs into Lucy as an Agatha mirror and the symbolism of the show in general, and to this post, which points out that Jonathan, Lucy, and Agatha are all Dracula's brides. Next thing I know I’m auditioning angry lady rocker music to properly express Sister Agatha and her imperfectly suppressed shadow.
For better and worse this thing is wholly my creation. My thanks to
elisi,
owlboy, and
purplefringe for all volunteering to beta before I smashed the entire thing out in a few days with no time for feedback. Their support is still deeply appreciated.
Oh, make me over
I'm all I wanna be
A walking study
In demonology
Hey, so glad you could make it
Yeah, now you really made it
Hey, so glad you could make it now
Oh, look at my face
My name is might have been
My name is never was
My name's forgotten
Hey, so glad you could make it
Yeah, now you really made it
Hey, there's only us left now
When I wake up in my makeup
It's too early for that dress
Wilted and faded somewhere in
Hollywood
I'm glad I came here
With your pound of flesh
No second billing 'cause you're a star now
Oh, Cinderella
They aren't sluts like you
Beautiful garbage beautiful dresses
Can you stand up or will you
Just fall down
You better watch out
What you wish for
It better be worth it
So much to die for
Hey, so glad you could make it
Yeah, now you really made it
Hey, there's only us left now
When I wake up in my makeup
Have you ever felt so used up as this?
It's all so sugarless
Hooker, waitress, model, actress
Oh, just go nameless
Honeysuckle, she's full of poison
She obliterated everything she kissed
Now she's fading
Somewhere in Hollywood
I'm glad I came here
With your pound of flesh
You want a part of me
Well, I'm not selling cheap
No, I'm not selling cheap

Everything is beautiful and . . . ok, not everything hurts, but quite a few things hurt. I mean that in a literal sense. Remind me not to do this again.
