    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

    As a medically disabled author, I have the power to write what I want about whatever I want. And I want to write about medical stuff because I have a lot of uncommon conditions. I have common ones as well, so some of these will be about more common stuff as well

    Summary

    To everyone's shock, the prison riots worked. Phillip Turpin is arrested and Benjamin is free after over fifteen years of a false charge. He begins taking back his life, beginning with his daughter. However, the word "father" tastes like poison in Johanna's mouth after what her guardian did her to and a flighty girl always has her wings outstretched.

    Or: Benjamin gets his daughter back, but he's used to being the parent of an infant. Not a traumatized teenager.

    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.)

    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?

    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.
