I Will Show No Mercy by JuicyFlawless25
Fandoms: Death Becomes Her - Mattison & Carey/Pennette, Death Becomes Her (1992)
27 May 2026

Summary
The door to the room had just clicked shut before Madeline was shoved against it, catching her off guard and making her clutch one hand against the door handle. She barely even had time to take a breath before Helen’s lips crashed against hers, dominating her mouth with an anger Madeline had never seen in her before. She reached her free hand out to clutch tightly to Helen’s hip, seeking a way to ground herself.
Helen shuddered, ignoring how good it felt to have her friend's hand on her, and shoved it off just as she bit harshly at Madeline’s bottom lip.
“Ow! Helen!” Madeline bellowed, a hurt expression crossing her features as she brought her hand up to touch her lip. “What the hell?” she questioned as she looked up into Helen’s furious gaze.
OR
Helen Sharp takes her revenge against Madeline once and for all.

Other people do things like yoga or journal or meditation but Trinity cannot stand to be introspective – the last thing she wants to do when she's stressed and overwhelmed is spend more time with her thoughts. She needs a type of physical release that an adult coloring book simply cannot provide.
or
Trinity jacks off to get to sleep, and fantasizes about Baran in the process

So No Head? by Shelbazoidz

Summary
It's a question she’s been trying to ignore. She can’t address it, let alone speak it out loud. But it's been there for months and Helen can’t keep pretending like she’s not curious about the aspect. More than just curious, she’s enthralled by it. She doesn’t know how the hell is she supposed to ask it though. It's not like she can just walk up to Madeline and ask if she’s ever thought about taking her head off and going down on herself…that would be insane.

Summary
'She blinks. Once. Twice. Multiple times in rapid succession. Dries her hands, takes her glasses off and cleans them with her sleeve. The spot doesn’t disappear. It doesn’t grow either, mercifully, but remains maddeningly and perfectly in the centre-left of her visual field. Huh. That's… unusual. It’s as if something small and six-legged has crawled across her eyeball and taken a bite out of it while she slept. Fear constricts her ribcage, cold and sudden.
Is she going blind?'
Helen loses her eyesight over time. Madeline is there every step of the way.

Bookmarker's Notes
She watches the gleam of her cheek in a spoon. Angles her face toward the reflection in the window glass after dark. Presses her forehead to the silver handle of the supply cart and studies what looks back.
“It’s just a conversation, Miss Desmond,” he says with a smile. “About your life. About the legacy.”
“Legacy,” she repeats.
“Something we leave behind.”
“I never left.”
Some days, Norma believes she’s here for research. A role, perhaps, in a project not yet greenlit. A chance to revisit herself. The doctors call this “anchoring.” Norma calls it a rehearsal.
nce, Norma requested The Passion of Joan of Arc. The nurse didn’t recognize the title. Another said, “We don’t carry foreign films.” They played Singin’ in the Rain instead.
She didn’t attend after that. Not for a while
Not out of vanity. Not even out of habit. She just doesn’t know how to stop.

It’s been great for Madeline since Helen’s “death”, but that just leaves Helen with a great deal of loneliness.

Bookmarker's Notes
Madeline’s face lights up at the sight. “Ooh people are going to have so many questions!” she says excitedly. “I’ll be the talk of the town!” Her fingertips dance over Helen’s arms excitedly as she imagines all the attention sporting a wedding band will bring her.
Helen catches Madeline’s hands and pins them beside her head. “And what will you tell them?”
Madeline leans up for a kiss, but Helen denies her, waiting for her answer. So she says, with her signature dramatic flair, “That famous and fabulous author Helen Sharp and I secretly tied the knot before her untimely death. It hurt too much to keep the reminder on before, but now all I want to do is honor her and the love we shared.”
Helen leans closer, but still not close enough for Mad’s lips to reach hers. “Look at my brilliant,” she presses a kiss to Madeline’s cheek, “Beautiful,” a kiss to the other cheek, “Wife.” A kiss to her lips. “You’ve thought of everything.”
“Yes, I have, so are we done now? Will you shut up and put that pretty mouth to good use already?”

Summary
He climbs the staircase two at a time, prattling about his day and the most recent celebrity he’s treating after a botched rhinoplasty, and he flings open the master bedroom door — partly out of habit, mostly because he was wondering what they’ve decided to fill their day with — and the words die on his tongue when he locks eyes with Madeline.
Madeline, clad in a silky pink robe with fuzzy trim, all bright eyed kiss-swollen lips and smiling up at him like she doesn’t have Helen fucking Sharp over her lap, ass bare. Helen looks like a vision like this — blouse pulled up, elegant skirt unzipped, squirming against Madeline — and Ernest feels like he’s walked in on something he shouldn’t have.
“Oh. I didn’t realize you were… occupied.”

Helen is making her a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
Mostly, she does this when Madeline is feeling sad, or sometimes when she’s feeling happy. Sometimes after sex. Sometimes because it’s Tuesday.

Summary
The first time Joe dies, he’s dead before he hits the ground.
He’s gone before he can feel Norma’s hands clawing at his lifeless body, before the blood (his) and saliva (hers) drips from her open mouth. He feels none of it. He feels nothing at all.
Joe, for what may be the first time, is lucky. Fittingly, it’s also the last thing he ever is.
Joe Gillis is very good at dying.

“You want me back because I left. Not because you love me.”
Madeline shakes her head harder now. But it’s too late.
Helen tilts her head, studying her. A scientist observing a failed experiment. Or a lover remembering what it was to be wanted before it began to rot.
“Do you dream about me every night?” she asks.
“Do you touch yourself when you wake up, just to feel like you're in control again?”
Madeline gasps.
Or
Helen is sent to the Health Spa. Madeline visits. -

Summary
Jen looked down at the business card in her hand. Maybe outside coaching wouldn't be the worst idea in the world. If Agatha was going to be her choreographer, she was going to need all of the help she could get just to survive.
Alright Lilia Calderu, she thought. Let’s see what you can do.Ballet/no-magic AU: After a bad injury, Jennifer Kale is determined to return to her rightful place as a principal dancer in the New York City Ballet. As part of her training, she will have to work with Lilia Calderu, a former dancer with a chip on her shoulder. Despite a rocky start, they begin to realize that they need each other more than either would have thought possible.

Summary
“It’s called May-December because December is the end of the year. It’s an end of things, and May is still a beginning.”
When Lilia has an intimate vision of what the future holds for her and her much-younger neighbor, it turns her whole world upside-down. Despite their differences, fears, and scars, together they find a path ahead. (Human-ish AU where Lilia occasionally has psychic visions and Jennifer is preternaturally good at chemistry.)

Summary
“If Agatha needed to feel better about herself, Rio would be the pills she has a hard time swallowing. If she needed nicotine so her headache passed, Rio would be the cigarette on her lips. If she insisted on drowning herself in hard liquor again, Rio would be the ice in it. Rio wanted to be everything that Agatha didn’t realize she craved, so she could never leave.”
Agatha Harkness is an assassin who goes after big-shots. Rio Vidal is assigned as the fixer who cleans up the crime scene she leaves behind. Maybe more than crime scenes, if the temptation is strong enough.
