Summary
Todd, to his great displeasure, found himself rather empty as he watched his greatest enemy plummet to the bakehouse.
Revenge should've been his salvation; he'd been sure of it. A sudden end to his litany of woes, the final link between his old life and the new.
Instead, he'd gotten... nothing.
He lamented being so sudden. He had taunted him, yes, for a moment, but his bloodlust had gotten hold of him. His Friends so hungry for the kill, so eager to fulfill their purpose. He should've been crueler, he scolded himself, make him anguish for every second his Lucy suffered at his filthy hands.
And then, a scream. Mrs. Lovett, of course.
What a lucky sound.
--
A week later, prisoner 1930 wakes up in solitary confinement. Hated by the world and with no one to turn, she only has one thing in her mind.Where the bloody hell is Sweeney Todd?

Summary
(Yes, there are paragraph breaks in this. Ao3 just formats them weirdly.)
Just a little collection of "scenes between scenes" and such.
(A fair amount of these moments will be referenced in I Never Stopped Loving You, so I guess this could be seen as a prequel, but this can also be a standalone story. This was kinda just an excuse to write about my various Sweeney Todd headcanons.) -

Sweeney is upset with Nellie for lying to him, but he spares her life, unable to bring himself to harm someone so dear to him.
Nellie is deeply hurt, feeling sad to have caused Sweeney such pain, and fearing that she'll never get to repair things with him.
Despite all the pain though, they can't help but still care for each other just as much as they did before. -

Summary
Mrs Lovett falls in love with Benjamin Barker the first time she sees him.
Judge Turpon loses his temper, eventually. A man like that can only be refused so many times, doesn’t Nellie know. Nellie wouldn’t mind, so much, but he sends Benjamin away, too. Benjamin is gone, and then Albert dies, and all Nellie is left with is a broken heart for the wrong reason and a run-down no-good pie shop.
She never sees Benjamin again, but then one day Mr T. walks through her door, and he’s not laughing, not at all.
Mr T. is a changed man, he has an emptiness in his eyes and a darkness in his heart, but Mrs. Lovett has had darkness in her soul since she was born.

Summary
She imagines his heart in his chest, thudding like the beating of a bird’s wings against his ribs, and she feels a stab of pain as clearly as if it were her own. Is there any joy in it, she wonders, or does he only scratch a primal itch when he slides into her? Isn’t it all the same in the end?

God, That's Good by franknfeeler

Summary
have you ever asked yourself, "What if Sweeney Todd was a brown butchfemme anticapitalist yandere-ish gothic romance?" well, wonder no longer!
Mrs Najwa Lahmar was popular among much of London's working class, but that fondness was only enough for a favor here and there. She lived off of those- her friends provided clothes, tools, and repairs -but if business didn't pick up soon, she'd starve. The only one who could stomach her slop couldn't afford to pay a cent.
Times were hard, but she was resourceful. She just needed a lucky break.Inspired by the theatrical (Ashford, Foster, Groban, Tveit) and cinematic (Bonham Carter, Depp) portrayals.

Summary
She didn’t know what she was thinking when she let them in. She should have thrown them out, let them both deal with the madness that waited. It wasn't like her. It wasn't practical. It wasn't like she had done fourteen years ago.
And yet when Benjamin Barker arrived at her shop, half-carrying, half-dragging the beggar woman that used to be his pretty wife, she let him in.
And the chaos, the blood and the want stepped in with him.

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?
