A/N: This is all rabidchild67’s fault (isn’t it always?) Last April, I played on the Alternative Universes I’ll Never Actually Write meme, and RC67 asked for White Collar, Grimm Bros’ fairytale style (first she had asked for Wagnerian Opera, but I threatened her with a knife). Well, even though I was not “supposed” to write it, I did. Sort of. Read at your own risk. Please send all complaints to rabidchild67

Consider yourself warned.
