well that's just not true at all is it.
#sweeney todd#they're both tragic and complex characters imo#they do horrific things and sweeney is motivated by trauma and grief which eventually becomes pure vengeance and crosses the moral line#mrs lovett is motivated initially by love for sweeney but also by pure desperation#she needs to make a living!!! she can't catch enough cats and there's a surplus of meat around in the form of people her crush is murdering#it's horrible it's disgusting it's undeniably morally wrong and it's incredibly practical#it's genius in a way like. hide the evidence make some money and tie yourself forever to the man you love.#and adopt the first victim's little feral child ensuring you not only have someone to work in the shop but also someone who depends on you#who loves you and provides you with the care and affection you desperately want and aren't getting#but then it all crashes down and she realizes she has to kill the child who loves her#and then lucy is alive and her crimes are uncovered and she dies in her oven being forced to confront her sins and the fires of hell#i'm not saying she was justified i'm saying she was desperate#for money and food and shelter and all that but also for companionship and love#and that's really sad to me#anyway mrs lovett the original gaslight gatekeep girlboss
