You'll be totally fine, OP. Doing GRIMDARK versions of fairytales is pretty standard quo. Even excluding OUaT and Fables from the line-up, there's Gregory Maguire's series of retellings, The Brothers Grimm movie that came out a while back, American McGee's Grimm...

If it makes you feel better, I felt quite the same when ATLA first revealed blood bending. I was writing an elemental magic story and my water people had a similar ability and I thought everyone would point fingers at me for 'copying' ATLA if I kept it. Granted I know better now, but it was especially silly since mine was more 'ripping blood out of their veins to cause instant death' than controlling people, and the more I thought about it, I realized it was ultimately ripped-off itself by Magneto doing the same thing in one of the X-Men movies.

But yeah, people get ideas from other ideas all the time. As long as you do something new with it, I don't think anyone will point fingers.
