Title: Gallows Literature
Author: [personal profile] shyaway
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: Sweeney/Lovett (in her head)
Disclaimer: Not mine. Used without permission or remuneration but with as much love and respect as Sweeney has for his friends.
Prompt: Penny Dreadful, for 6impearfics. Also called Gallows Literature. A dime novel rife with melodrama, horror, madness and cruelty; a ten cent analogy of vice and virtue in conflict. Soft perfume evocative of noir heroines over rich red grave loam. Table here.
Summary: It’s her fantasy and she’ll cast herself as the tragic romantic heroine if she wants to. Not all Mrs Lovett’s flights of fancy are as wholesome as ‘By the Sea’.
A/N: [personal profile] hereswith did her usual wonderful job betaing (thank you!); any remaining errors are mine.

Title: Two Hearts
Author: [personal profile] shyaway
Rating: PG
Pairing: Sweeney/Lovett
Disclaimer: Not mine. Used without permission or remuneration but with as much love and respect as Sweeney has for his friends.
Prompt: Black Dahlia, for 6impearfics. Voluptuous magnolias strewn over orchid, star jasmine, black amber and smoky rose. Table here.
Summary: Sweeney doesn’t like Mrs Lovett’s perfume. ‘One would think that fifteen years of prison would have inured him to any foul odour, but no, that cheap scent was wafting up to him like a professional insult.’
A/N: Title is also a perfume, but not BPAL - it's from B Never Too Busy to be Beautiful.
