    Summary

    Soon all the pies were rescued and lined up on the bakehouse table, the smell of freshly baked pastry mingling with the faint scent of blood which always lingered in the room. “Thanks,” she told Sweeney. “Would you help me bring these upstairs?”

    He hesitated. “Must we do it right now?”

    “Well,” she said, “we could let them cool—”

    He was kissing her before she could finish her sentence, one hand cupping her cheek, the other digging into her back. He trailed his lips down her neck, pushing her towards the wall.

    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

    “Mrs Lovett and you were wed, weren’t you?”

    “Yes. You are to call her Mrs Todd now. If anyone asks, we were wed early October. Is that clear?”

    Johanna thinks it a curious thing that he should sound so resigned. She has often seen how the two of them flit about each other, her chatting happily to him, pressing little touches into his arm. Mr Todd has always seemed a bit more reticent about his affection, but Johanna knows he must care for her, too. She knows it from the way he will rub her shoulders after she complains they are aching at day’s end, from the way he lingers to watch her walk away.

    Summary

    The stunted, hesitant way he lifts his hand and holds it, momentarily aloft, before dropping it back onto the mattress beside him, feels like a message, a sign scrawled into the air. Already, she can sense his willingness to give in - it sits in the set of his jaw, the lax line of his ordinarily too-stiff posture. A fish caught hopelessly on the very hook he’d been hoping to avoid, plucked from the safety of water and left dangling in the air.

    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.

    Summary

    “It doesn’t make sense. My overbearing adoptive father keeps me protected and when he learns I’ve met a boy, he schemes to marry me himself, and when he learns I’m going to marry the boy he sends me to an asylum, and I wait there for six months and then the boy rescues me and has me wait at a barber shop while he goes to get a carriage, and I hear horrible noises from downstairs, and the boy comes back and we go down to see what happened and there was a massacre? What kind of a story is that?”

    “The kind where you’re not the main character.”
