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
{{ELEANOR IS MRS. LOVETT I SWEAR}}
Eleanor Price dreams of living a different life.
A life where she doesn't have to make up for her brothers leaving.
A life where maybe her mother isn't dead.
A life where her father loves her.
A life where that piggish Mr. Lovett doesn't gaze at her as if she's one of the cuts of meat he requests.

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.)

Summary
toby comes to sweeney for barber services and, for a moment, at least, there's an understanding.
"The wall had been put back up between them, now. Probably, a wise decision on Toby’s part. ...Nevertheless, he reached for Toby again. Again, the brief flinch away, then seeming to give into his fate, perhaps only on the simple notion of a child obeying his master. And, unlike the tooth pulling, this strange punishment did not hurt quite yet."
