Master Bovary's Box by Ashykat
Fandoms: Sweeney Todd - Sondheim/Wheeler, Sweeney Todd (2007)
11 May 2025
Tags
Summary
The term "Bovary Box" was (jokingly) coined by my old humanities teacher. It refers to the controversial novel "Madame Bovary" by Gustave Flaubert. The Bovary Box in the novel itself is a supposed miraculous invention that Madame Bovary’s bumbling husband Charles thinks will somehow cure the medical suffering of another character. In other words, a Bovary Box is something, an object, event, or location, that you think will somehow miraculously produce happiness, though it usually makes the situation worse. So, knowing that, do you think moving to a small town in the middle of nowhere you know next to nothing about would cure your wife’s hysteria?

Summary
a series of scenes of toby and mrs lovett, set between the two acts, following them as they grow closer.
"She'd been able to feel the ugly curve of his ribs, and she remembered what it had been like to be so frail. ...She thought more on this sweet delusion Toby was having: Her as his mother. She walked the line, looking with uncertainty onto the side of it where he stood, nothing more than a boyish silhouette against the light."
(UPDATE 2/9/25: my finger slipped and i added a whole new scene to this fic. new and improved! so idk anyone whos read it before now just know it's undergone a little renovations. nothing's been taken out, just stuff's been added in.)

Not while I’m around - song from Sweeney Todd
***
“You know mum, there’s nothing I wouldn’t do for you…” Tobias stated, looking at his feet. As soon as the words were out of his mouth, he swore he could feel a presence from Sweeney Todd’s parlour. He quickly looked over there before continuing, “If there were a monster or a ogre or anything bad like that what was after you,” he took a breath, “I would rip it apart with my bare fists, I would.”

Summary
„That path you were on. You would have burned brightly, for just one moment and then gone out forever. Like a candle, snuffed. It’s better we left when we did. We might not all be happy with it right now, but give it time and I think we’ll all see, that we made the right decision.“
--------------
After convincing Mr. Todd to leave his path of vengeance and getting them all out of London, Nellie finds that it might be harder than she thought to keep her family together. As it turns out, life by the sea is not as simple as she had wished.

Summary
’Instinctively, Sweeney half-closes the tome against the finger he’s placed on the page to mark his place. He holds the front cover up for the boy to look at, and it takes a good handful of seconds for him to realise that Toby is still watching him blankly. Possibly, with a degree of sadness in his face — humiliation, shame. Wordlessly, he returns to his puzzle, but the keenness to finish it isn’t there anymore.’
⤷ sweeney teaches toby to read, and maybe learns a lesson or two along the way.

Summary
’Maybe it’s second nature after countless miserable years in the workhouse, feeling blindly along scratchy plaster walls in the cold hallways as he searched for the main kitchen.
He remembers the overwhelming sickness, mixed in with the gnawing hunger in the pit of his belly; the nauseating feeling that you’re not supposed to be here.’
⤷ tobias ragg is surprisingly good at finding things in the dark.
