Summary
“Wait.” She sits up, legs tucked to the side to offer her some modesty (as if it really matters at this point). “You’re seriously asking to take control to—to fucking get off?”
V has trouble getting off. Johnny offers his help.

Summary
Normally, when two people break up, they fight. They scream, or they cry, or maybe they throw things at each other depending on the hows and whys of the split. One of them packs up and leaves, or maybe they both leave, and maybe they’re both angry and maybe they both mourn but, hopefully, eventually they both move on.
Arya Stark has made a lifelong habit of doing the opposite of what’s expected of her, so when she and Gendry break up, she doesn’t kick him out of the townhouse even though the lease is in her name, and she keeps living with him.
Or, the romantic dramedy wherein Gendry does everything possible to not address his latent daddy issues and really just wants to paint, Jaqen deals with Westerosi prudishness and should probably focus more on his job, and Arya has a one night stand that doesn’t actually end and accidentally busts up an international crime ring with the help of her ex-boyfriend and the aforementioned one night stand. Also, there’s kind of a love triangle-- but only in the most technical sense, and everyone involved is pretty on board with it in the end.
Alternatively titled, Arya Stark Has Her Cake and Eats It Too, a Novel.

[2] dead but SO GOOD!!!!!
I love Arya and Sandor's dynamic, the hilarious little sprinklings of Ramsay as a sociopath, and how the relationships are building. Good humor.

Summary
A collection of drabbles and oneshots, largely unrelated to each other and (hopefully) staying within 500-1.5k words, as challenged by Han_shot_first. Ratings vary per ficlet. The majority of these feature an ambiguously-aged Arya, so the underage warning does not necessarily need to apply unless you specifically want it to.
Or, #dickoff2019.

Summary
A restless night of wandering leads a Master and his Apprentice in a new direction in their relationship. Graphic sex, some cannon Faceless Men Lore, and two people who could be great together.
Takes place around Season 5, Episode 8. This is a prequel to my story 'The Return of a Faceless Man,' and takes place when Arya is still at the House of Black and White. My version of how Jaqen/Arya could get together in the cannonverse.
Series
- Part 1 of A Tale of Two Faceless Men

Summary
She moves softly, quietly, with the care of a mouse, but he still hears the patter of her boots against the floor, the sound of fabric shifting as her cloak sways with her movements; the whistle as something cuts through the air with violent trajectory towards his head. He reaches behind himself and catches the staff before it can crack into the base of his skull; the skin of his palm stings with the force, and when he turns to glance over his shoulder, eyebrow raised, he spies a disappointed frown cross Arya's face before she smothers it.
"A girl would give her comrade a concussion before the dead arrive," he observes wryly, releasing the staff and turning back to face the window once more.
Or, the one where a man who has been named Jaqen H'ghar comes to Winterfell as a representative for the House of Black and White in the war against the White Walkers; and with regards to the matter of losing her virginity, Arya chooses the better of her two options.
