Summary
Magic doesn't care about circles, or titles, the differences that define witches from wizards. It doesn't care about academia, or following rules.
Creatures made of magic, creatures like familiars, like spirits, like demons-- they don’t care about that shit either.
What they care about is intent.
Or, the one where hedge-witch Arya, looking to pact with something with a little more magical firepower than what she's got, offers up her soul to the spiritual chopping block in exchange for help solving the mystery of her parent's sudden murders; and ends up with a little more than she'd bargained for.

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. -

Summary
I should kill you, she says, with the authority of nature. The sun will rise, the sky is blue, the river flows. I should kill you. He can only nod in agreement. She should. It would be kind. A kindness that benefits them both. A gift.
“Valar morghulis,” he tells her, a blessing, a benediction.
Instead, she moves away. She pulls off of him and stands, a smooth and economic motion, and finds her cloak on the ground. As she shakes it out, she says quietly, “But I don’t think I will. Not yet. Not today. You made me.” And then she looks at him with cold grey eyes, wolf eyes, and says the most damning thing of all: “And I made you.”
Or, the story of a man who was no one until he took an apprentice and became Jaqen H'ghar. After everything that's happened between then and now, he faces the consequences of her decisions.

lovely. by Griftings for Han_shot_first

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
She lifts up her bell to clang it again when, from one of the stages off the dirt path, she hears a man’s voice calling out, amplified by a microphone, “Girl! Lovely girl!” Frowning, she turns to face the stage, mentally going through the festival schedule. Around two in the afternoon, on the Braavosi stage, so--
Oh. Him. She should have known.
Jaqen H’ghar, sitting casually on the steps of the Braavosi stage with his legs stretched out, straight up manspreading and looking very devil-may-care, flips a knife between his fingers and smiles at her over the crowd, acting as though he doesn’t have rows and rows of patrons watching him avidly. “Lovely girl,” he says again, and beckons her closer with the hand not flipping the knife. The crowd at his set all turn to look at her curiously.
Or, the one where Arya Stark is one of the handlers for the direwolf show at the Royal Baratheon Game of Thrones Renaissance Festival, and Jaqen H'ghar is a knife thrower who needs some assistance.

Summary
At eighteen years old, Riz Gukgak was murdered on the hill next to the bloodrush field. Now, six years later, his brief time in the afterlife pre-revivification is just a blip on the back edge of his radar. Riz is a man with places to be, coffee to drink, sleep to not get. The cold case of his own murder has been discarded at the bottom of his desk drawer, to waste in dust and stains indefinitely.
Until Fabian Seacaster walks off the boat and back into Elmville.

Summary
Konoha and Iwa sign a treaty and agree to a "Genin Exchange Program" to foster better relations between the two countries. While it appears diplomatic on the surface, both villages use the opportunity to undercut and spy on one another. Fortunately, if anything were to go wrong on the mission, Haruno Sakura was just average enough to risk losing.
With Deidara as her jounin instructor, Sakura thinks she might not survive the year. ...He thinks she'll do just fine.
