Day 2: Changes - Vid rec - Warrior Nun

[sisterdivinium]

Title/Link: Divinium
Fandom: Warrior Nun
Vidder: emylilas 
Characters: Jillian Salvius, Ava Silva
Warnings: A few quick cuts/flashes here and there.
Summary: A fan-made trailer that changes Warrior Nun from a fantasy show to a gripping thriller/psychological horror movie.
 

This has got to be my absolute favourite Warrior Nun edit that I've seen until now. In only 57 seconds, we're easily led to believe this is a real feature in which Jillian's mad scientist is trying to conduct strange experiments on an unsuspecting Ava, for reasons less than noble. The pacing, the understanding of what makes a thriller trailer and the whole atmosphere are phenomenal and the mutation of a fantasy show's scenes into what could be this creepy horror film justifies the "changes" prompt in my mind -- talk about a transformative work! You can't even be spoiled for the show by watching this because it really is its own thing. Magical.

That's a very cool vid and now I want to write a fic with that premise. Except, I don't think I could ever write anything with Jillian as just the villain, so it would have to be something where she has some twisted but understandable motives. Hmmm...

I'm happy to know you enjoyed it! I know I go back to it every now and again, it's amazing.

Well, that would keep in tune with the show, too! Have her seem like one thing then reveal something about her that explained the first thing... If only because she really doesn't deserve to be a full-blown villain, we love her way too much for that! :)
