Sweeney is more enraged than ever but when Turpin tells mrs.Lovett a terrifying plan, does mr.Todd get jealous? And a little too over protective? ps. No, he doesn't know about Lucy.Complete

Monsters of the past (Poppy playtime AU) -cancelled-
(Warning, swearing and violence) This au takes place in the perspective of Exp. 0920, Ferritalli. If you aren't comfortable with traumatic events and violence this story isn't for you, buckle up and follow Ferritalli and several others on their adventures through the timeline of Poppy Playtime. THIS STORY IS A BETA TO THE FINAL THING! I'm leaving it up to use as a reference and for others to see what it looked like at the start, but other than that this will not be added onto, and I will make a secondary one with altered story. (key points or info will remain, but the storyline in general could flex a lot more.)Complete
