#mrs. lovett’s meat pies

[broadwayinabox]

Flour dusted over a wooden board

A pinch of salt to taste

The meat here comes in hourly

Not an appointment goes to waste

She marinates the standing fools

Before they’re shipped above

The imprudent seasoning of ghouls

For an Icarus in love.

*Alastor walks into the hotel looking very happy, in his hands is a box*

Adam: What’s in the box?

Alastor: Meat pies. Would you like one? They are made fresh daily by my dear friend Nellie Lovett.

Adam: Sure.

*before Adam can reach into the box Lucifer instantly appears and smacks Adam on the hand with the apple staff*

Lucifer: You don’t want those meat pies.

Adam: Dude why not?

Lucifer: The place the radio fuck goes to get his meat pies uses human meat to make them.

Adam: Gross!!!!!!!!!!

Alastor: I was a serial killer and a cannibal when I was alive, why does he keep getting shocked when I bring home food made of human meat?

[jamesphillimoresumbrella]

The okay-est pies in my kitchen. Might possibly be the worst pies in London if I were to ship them there. (Disclaimer: all of my neighbors are still alive. I wasn't that carried away by "Sweeney Todd".)

Hope everyone had a sweet Pi Day yesterday.

For all those interested, chapters 1-11 are now up on AO3

I am too long winded for succinct summaries but here goes:

Pre-Sweeney/Prison Benjamin Barker and Nellie Lovett, baby Johanna and a lot of angst, sadness, love, and yah know bloody stuff.

Also so many cameos and call backs, it would make Taylor Swift blush.

Mrs. Lovett much?

[lunarhobbits]

"mrs lovett, downstairs, you know her, dontcha? buncha people down there, always eatin' those pies she makes. me, i haven't eaten one myself. i'm more of a chili type a' guy. my wife, though, she ate one once. the crust was just right, she said, but the meat? even better. juicy, flavorful. funny thing, she said it didn't quite taste like anythin' she normally ate; beef or pork or chicken, anythin' like that. no, the thing she said it tasted like was...well, the thing is, she's got this friend - nice guy, but some odd tastes, if you get what i'm sayin'. anyway, one time she was visiting him and one thing led to another, and don't ask me how he got it, but she ended up tryin' some human flesh. and this pie she got from lovett, downstairs? she said it tasted most like that.

but i'm sure it's all a big misunderstanding, right mr. todd? ya wouldn't know anything about that anyway. oh, a shave? thanks for the offer, but i think i'm good. my wife, you know, she kinda goes for the stubbly look."

Dating Headcanons | Mrs. Lovett

♥︎ mrs. lovett

【 what being in a relationship with mrs. lovett would be like... 】

One day you stumble upon Mrs. Lovett's Pie Shop after hearing all the excitement on the streets of her salivating meat pies. You didn't really care for the savory kind of pies, so when your friends drag you there, you would instead order some tea or beer.

Nellie is immediately drawn to you the moment you walk into her shop, admiring you from afar as you're talking and laughing with your friends, unbeknownst to you. If you do prefer savory over sweet pies, I think she'd try and avoid giving them to you, making excuses that this batch isn't as good or that a couple of her hairs got mixed in to put you off them, even though her other customers completely devour them at the tables surrounding yours.

You'd quickly become a regular there, enjoying the quiet calmness of her shop when there's scarcely any customers yet, coming either in the early morning or the late evening. You'd order a drink or a little something to eat and then stay for an hour or two, appreciating slowly waking up or winding down for the night in the quaint place.

Nellie always checks in with you every once in a while to refill your cup, politely conversing with you for a few minutes. Over time, the two of you get closer, to the point where Nellie lets you stay after shop hours so that you two could continue talking and getting to know each other. You'd help her clean and tidy up around the shop so that she could be finished earlier, then she'd fix you both up fresh cups of tea and you talk into the night.

`

What really draws Nellie to you is how you listen and give her your attention. You make it clear that you're interested in what she's talking about and that you want to continue talking, even listening intently when she starts to ramble. Nellie is often dismissed by those in her life, so to see you really care to hear what she's saying, she quickly grows feelings for you.

`

Now Nellie is manipulative and possessive, so she will do anything to make sure that you're her's and her's only.

If she sees someone making romantic advances on you she might ask Sweeney to invite them up for a haircut or shave.... Your admirers just have a tendency to disappear. It's a little strange that the smoke from Mrs. Lovett's Pie Shop gets especially bad whenever someone asks you on a date or flirts with you, but you don't question it. She'd also find different ways to insert herself into your life so that she can get closer to you.

`

She's not quite subtle about how she's fallen for you either. Nellie will cast longing looks from across the room, sigh wistfully to herself thinking about you, and even make several suggestive comments to drop hints.

Confessions of Love

If she confesses first... - She'd first gift you something like a vase of your favorite flowers, a knitted pair of gloves, or a new necklace. Her eyes go so soft, watching your delight at her gifts then she'd reveal her feelings. Warmth spreads through her chest once you admit you feel the same.

"Always had a fondness for you, I did."

If you confess first... - You'd sit her down one night after shop hours, candlelight flickering on your features as you reach over and take her hands in yours, letting her know how glad you are to have met her, and then you confess. You rub a finger over her knuckles and stare into each other's eyes, in slight elated disbelief that you're both smitten with each other.

You both of course know the risks of being in a relationship with another woman at this time, but you're both so taken by each other that you'll do anything to be together. You have to be secretive. Being unable to be open about your feelings in public frustrates and exhausts both of you, but you work through it together. Most are none the wiser, dismissing it and writing you off as very close friends.

`

A relationship with Nellie is really sweet. She loves taking care of you, it's one of the most common ways she shows her love for you, making sure that you've eaten or drank enough water.

She's obsessed with you, it's honestly really flattering just how into you she is, flirting and doting on you all the time, but it really can be too much at times. Nellie's so open and honest with her feelings, so you really don't need to have any doubts, but I can see her obsession with you causing the most problems in your relationship.

Nicknames

Dearie/Dearest, love, darling

Dates

Going on dates with Nellie are very romantic and relaxed.

All she really needs is you and she's content.

A sweet candlelit dinner or quiet nights just being in each other's company with her knitting as you write letters.

Love languages

Giving Gifts - Nellie will gladly spoil you rotten (she has the money for it with her respectful business), but I think she prefers handmade gifts like knitting clothes for you in the colder seasons, or preparing you your favorite food/meal. She pours love into everything she makes for you, and it's through making things that she can really express her feelings.

Physical Touch - Nellie's very clingy, so prepare for that. She wants to be around you almost constantly—resting her head on your shoulder as you do something, hooking an arm around your waist, kissing the crown of your head, nestling her face into the crook of your neck smelling your hair, sitting on your lap and hugging you. She loves cuddling and being wrapped up in your arms the most, it makes her feel so safe and loved. She also gets weak in the knees when you gently press a hand against her throat or on the small of her back while you kiss her.

Words of Affirmation - She'd definitely want the reassurance that you love and care for her. Nellie's so sure of her feelings for you, she wants to make sure that you care for her as much as she does for you. She'll also praise and compliment you often. If you ask, she'll happily remind of her feelings.

Nellie loves teasing you, just to get a reaction out of you and see how far she can push you. But tease her back, compliment, praise her, or make a suggestive comment that she wasn't expecting and she'll be blushing.

`

Nellie is definitely very protective over you. If someone gives you a look she's not too fond of or a gross comment, she'll tell them off.

"Nothing's gonna harm you, not while I'm around."

She craves and feeds off of your attention so when she sees someone else getting that, she can become quite jealous, even if it is just a friend you're catching up with. She'll let you be, but after she'll latch onto you and ask you to give her attention.

`

One of Nellie's best qualities is how thoughtful and attentive she is. Nellie remembers all kinds of small details, takes note of your interests, and will always be thinking of you as you go about your day. This can show up in several ways. If you mention your favorite fruit offhandedly, she'll surprise you with a basket full of pastries, treats, and a pie using the fruit you said you liked. If you go window shopping together in the town and your eyes linger on a jewelry box or beautiful ornate quills and stationery, there's a parcel on your porch a couple days later of those exact items. If you live together, Nellie will stop you before you leave and put some items in your bag that you've forgotten, fixing your clothes and pressing a small kiss to your forehead, wishing you a good day. Her way of loving you is knowing you and showing she's thinking of you.

♥︎♥︎♥︎ Nellie is such a sweet and devoted lover. She would give you the moon on a string if she could. Give her your attention, show interest in her, and she's yours. Her affection for you can get a bit overwhelming at times, but make your boundaries clear, she'll be so attentive and respectful, and will do her best to follow them. She is so willing to do anything when it comes to you, and you can do the same for her.

REVIEWING SWEENY TODD

Overall: 6/10- I like this show, but I am a bit biased towards it because I had to watch my headmaster play the lead in it once and it was kinda traumatizing. It's a little dark for my taste, but solid show

Music: 7.5/10- i like the music, but its not on my playlist

Favorite Character: Johanna

Favorite Song/moment: Ballad of Sweeney Todd

Most unhinged moment/lyric: "MOre MeaT PIEs!"

What it says about you: You definitely had a goth/emo phase or a preppy academia phase. You were pretty smart, maybe even a nerd. You loved history and English class and horror movies. You have an unhealthy obsession with Plague Doctors.

Tell me your favorite musical and I’ll try to rate it and tell you what it says about you.

[eddiemunson-reader-shame]

There you'll sample Mrs. Lovett's meat pies. Savory and sweet pies as you'll see.

You who eat pies, Mrs. Lovett's meat pies, conjure up the treat pies used to be!

I didn’t do anything so grandiose in scale for Halloween sadly. Didn’t really have the spoons to do it, but I figured I’d get something out even if it looked a bit bad.

Allie and Eddie probably got dress coded for the fake blood they used for their Sweeney Todd and Mrs. Lovett costumes. Higgins sent them home with detention, and then they invited all the Hellfire Club boys to her house for a D&D session along with a homemade special “meat pie”.

Really it’s just a cherry pie with fake plastic fingers stuck in each slice.
