Summary: A post-modern, contemporary retelling of the Brothers Grimm fairy tale The Seven Swans. 

Witches always have their wars.  Mona is placed under a curse by a rival witch, her seven brothers turned to swans.  For the next seven years, Mona works in silence, weaving the magic shirts that will restore her brothers to human form. 

When the seven years end, the final shirt is unfinished.  Mona’s youngest brother Isaiah--who has spent half his life human, half enchanted--is left behind, alone in the bleak world of reality, one arm the wing of a swan.

Warnings: Slash, sex, torture, non-con, language, angst. 

Author’s Note: This was written for the Red Shoes prompt at the lj community hp_fairytales Fairytale Fest.   Also please keep in mind that at the time of this story Peter has not yet spent 12 years living as a rat so he’s not all twitchy and gross yet.  He’s still a cute, dorky best-friend kind of guy.  This is Chibi!Peter.  Think Sean Astin or George from Grey’s Anatomy.
