He laid a finger on her lips. “Three lives you shall have of me. No more, no less. Three and we are done. So a girl must ponder.” He kissed her hair softly. “But not too long.”

I think it’s always good to remind how different is Jaqen’s story in the books. We tend to confuse the two characters, book!Jaqen and show!Jaqen because the show had been on for so long and the missing books are nowhere to be seen.
Then I would like to write a little reminder of book!Jaqen.
Jaqen got out of the black cells with the help of Varys.
When Jaqen came to King’s Landing people involved with Robert’s Rebellion started to die in mysterious circumstances.
Jaqen first took interest in Arya when he saw her beating up Hot Pie on the way to Harrenhal.
He is very young and charming with looks and manners of an aristocrat ( Targaryen to be precise ).
He told Arya that he wanted to fight in the red war ( the Battle for Dawn )
Jaqen smiled all the way to Harrenhal (and he kept smiling when he joined the Brave Companions) as if he had had a secret.
He doesn’t speak in the third person all the time.
He kissed Arya.
He likes ginger.
He offered three lives to the Red God and made an oath by the Old Gods and all the new gods under the weirwood tree. 
He looks like weirwood: he is tall and slender and his hair is half white and half red.
He speaks High Valyrian.
He loves bathing.
Jaqen protected Arya while in Harrenhal and during the fighting with the guards. 
He wiped his bloodied sword in her shift so they could share the responsibility for the killings.
He wore the face of a young alchemist after Harrenhal which means he must have killed him while in King’s Landing. 
Jaqen killed Balon Greyjoy and was paid with a dragon’s egg.
He came to Oldtown to steal the book about the dragon lore. 
Jaqen broke the rules of the Faceless Men at least twice. The first time when he killed people for Arya and the second time when he showed her that he could change his face at will.
He is not Arya’s mentor in Braavos.
He is a skilled swordsman.
Is currently Sam Tarly’s roommate in the Citadel.

Arya was dreaming of wolves running wild through the wood when a strong hand clamped down over her mouth like a smooth warm stone, solid and unyielding. She woke at once, squirming and struggling. "A girl says nothing," a voice whispered close behind her ear. "A girl keeps her lips closed, no one hears, and friends may talk in secret. Yes?"
Heart pounding, Arya managed the tiniest of nods. Jaqen H'ghar took his hand away. The caller was black as pitch and she could not see his face, even inches away. She could smell him, though, his skin smelled clean and soapy, and he had scented his hair.
"A boy becomes a girl," he murmured.
"I was always a girl. I didn't think you saw me."
"A man sees. A man knows."
She remembered that she hated him. "You scared me. You're one of them now, I should have let you burn. What are you doing here? Go away or I'll yell for Weese."
"A man pays his debts. A man owes three."
"Three?"
"The Red God has his due, sweet girl, and only death may pay for life. This girl took three that were his. This girl must give three in their places. Speak the names, and a man will do the rest."
He wants to help me, Arya realized with a rush of hope that made her dizzy. "Take me to Riverrun, it's not far, if we stole some horses we could---"
He laid a finger on her lips. "Three lives you shall have of me. No more, no less. Three and we are done. So a girl must ponder." He kissed her hair softly. "But not too long."

Love me with your eyes. Chapter two.
It had not been long on the way from the Twins to Winterfell. It was on her first night on the journey. The air was cold and bitter and the wolf slept minimally but warmly and side in her dug burrow in the ground. A man watched a lovely girl as she slept, staying just outside her zone of senses. Breath in and step. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Something’s wrong. Something is in her camp. Not a critter, bigger, taller than a wolf, almost to quite for a man but not for all men. Hey fire was small now, embers. Rising up from place in the dirt she added brush to the dying flames and as it rose back to life her suspicions were confirmed by the new light. “Did a lovely girl really need the light to know it was a man?” Needed had been at his throat in less than a second. “Why are you in Westeros?” She demanded pressing the blades tip to his throat licking her bottom lip when she saw a drip of blood slide down his throat. “A man means a girl no harm, a man wishes to accompany a girl to the end of this story, no house business.” “My death will not come at your hand? Or the hand of a brother? The deaths of my kin?” Her sword stayed steady but was retracted for his flesh. “They are a girls brothers as well, she has given up herself in mind and kept Arya Stark close.” He used the tips of his fingers to move the blade and she threaded it back into her belt. “Play a game with a man.” He asked situating himself beside the fire. When she set before him he took her hands in his hands. “A man is not here to hurt a girl.” Her hand twitched but did not move. “A girl wants you gone.” *smack* “A girl must still learn to control her anger when lying.” Then “A girl missed a man.” “A man missed a girl.” “A girl is Arya Stark.” “She is right now, but I’ve seen no one in a girl, she has chosen Arya Stark, a man is glad a boy was always a girl that a girl was always Arya Stark.” “A girl gave the Frays to the Many Faced God.” *smake* “A girl took the Frays for herself.” “True enough.” There was a pause when he looked at her and his lips twitched “A man does not enjoy hurting a girl.” *smack* “liar” “A man cares for a girl-” *smack* “-a man would stay with a girl as long as she’d let him” again she smacked him losing more resolve and anger as he spoke to her. “A brother wore a man’s face, the council feared a man felt inappropriately for a lovely girl” he caught her hand this time as it flew towards his face. Holding her wrist be pulled her forward into him this his mouth beside her ear, “ They were right.” Her anger was stronger now, she was trembling, burning with the emotion. “Show me?” She hadn’t meant it to sound like a question but it did. He crooked a brow at her, “Show me how a man could feel inappropriately for a girl.” This time he voice was steady.

Arya was a skilled climber and a fast picker, and she liked to go off by herself. One day she came across a rabbit, purely by happenstance. It was brown and fat, with long ears and a twitchy nose. Rabbits ran faster than cats, but they couldn't climb trees half so well. She whacked it with her stick and grabbed it by its ears, and Yoren stewed it with some mushrooms and wild onions. Arya was given a whole leg, since it was her rabbit. She shared it with Gendry. The rest of them each got a spoonful, even the three in manacles. Jaqen H'ghar thanked her politely for the treat, and Biter licked the grease off his dirty fingers with a blissful look, but Rorge, the noseless one, only laughed and said, "There's a hunter now. Lumpyface Lumpyhead Rabbitkiller."

Hi! Very new to Game of Thrones fanfics, to mend my broken heart and soul :'(. Would you guys please recommend me some popular / must-reads stories.
REQUIREMENTS / Looking for:
✔️ Completed
✔️Long Multichaptered or Long Oneshots, idc. Just as long as it's, well, long and there's story progression. (Not into drabbles or "a series of", sorry)
✔️ Any rating
✔️ Preferably English, but I can still try to use Google Translate on AO3 or FFNET's translator if it's not English.
✔️ Either fix-it / rewrites / AUs that are book and/or show related. Canon divergent, i guess? (Not modern AUs or crossevers or sci-fi or the likes)
OPTIONAL tags/elements, but I'd love you a lot if these were also included hehehe ( ˘ ³˘)♥ :
👌🏽Arya centric
👌🏽Gendry x Arya and/or Jaqen x Arya
👌🏽Post season 4
👌🏽AUs or fix-its season 5/6/7/8
👌🏽 Time travel fix-its (Example: Arya sent back to season 1 period to save A, to prevent B, yadayadayada)
This list will probably be updated, but I welcome any recommendations that comes along the way. Thanks a bunch ❤️

There is a commonly known theme of trees in Arya’s storyline. A girl who resembles Arya is called Willow, Arya wears the acorn dress that makes her look like a tree, she prays to weirwoods and they seem to answer. I always thought it was there to emphasize Arya’s likeness to Lyanna, the Knight of the Laughing Tree. But there is more to it and it is worth of further inspection.
For instance, Arya’s friend, Jaqen, is also associated with weirwoods. When Jaqen comes to hear the last name, he finds Arya praying in the godswood. He appears all of a sudden as if he has been summoned by Arya’s prayer. And Arya compares him to a tree:
Jaqen H’ghar stood so still in the darkness that he seemed one of the trees. - Arya, A Clash of Kings
For a long time, I thought it was all about his faceless skills. Jaqen has followed Arya to the godswood so quietly that she doesn’t notice she is not alone anymore. Once under the tree, he stands so motionlessly that he seems to be a tree rather than a human. I thought it’s all about how the faceless men had trained him but it’s not just that. Jaqen seems to be one of the trees, a weirwood tree to be precise. He is slender and his hair is white like weirwood’s bark and red, like leaves of the tree. He belongs in the godswood. 
We know from A Dance with Dragons that weirwoods are vessels for the souls of those marked by the gods. They provide a shelter for the spirits of those special ones after their bodies die. They are the afterlife. 
We witness the Bloodraven in the middle of the process of transforming into a tree. He is passing away, slowly stepping to the other side where his soul will continue to be. That’s what the tree symbolism is about. It’s about immortality.
 Arya and Jaqen are those marked by the gods too. I wonder if Lyanna’s shield with a laughing weirwood painted on it, is meant to indicate that her spirit may continue to live in weirwoods as well. Perhaps it means that she will have the last laugh. That she will be with her Rhaegar for eternity. The fate that Arya and Jaqen are heading towards too.

Arya was raised on a small farm in the Mountains of Winter. She had never owned fancy dresses, never pampered her long dark hair, but she was all the same the most beautiful girl in the North. She just didn't know it.
Her favourite pastimes were running in the woods with her direwolf Nymeria and tormenting the farm boy that worked for her family. His name was Jaqen, but she never called him that. To her, it was as if he had no name.
Nothing gave Arya as much pleasure as ordering Jaqen around.
"Farm boy, brush my direwolf's coat, I want to see it shining by morning," she told him one day, her hand petting Nymeria.
He was always so quiet, so courteous. "A man must serve." And maybe as handsome as she was beautiful.
A man must serve was all he ever said to her. He just looked at her. He always looked at her, always smiling. He saw her.
"Farm boy, fill these with water," she told him on the morrow, two buckets dropped near him.
He was outside, chopping firewood with an axe. "A man must serve." And a man obeyed.
She never looked at him. She just turned and left. But that day, her eyes stayed on him. That day, she chewed her lip to keep a please from escaping. That day, she was amazed to discover that when he was saying a man must serve what he meant was I love you.
"Farm boy, fetch me that kettle," she told him at the turn of the moon, the kettle so close she could reach it herself from where she was sitting.
He was in the kitchen doorway, a pair of heavy padded mitts soon in his hands. "A man must serve." And kneeling beside her, Arya drunk on his smile, they finally gazed into each other's eyes.
Even more amazing was that day. The day she realised she wanted to kiss that disarming smile. The day she realised she truly loved him back.
How their love survived the adventures with the three outlaws Tyrion the witty dwarf, 'Big Man' Sandor Clegane and Syrio Forel the fencing master, with the evil prince Bolton and his six-fingered goon Meryn Trant, and with the kindly magician in his robe of black and white, well... That is a story for another day.
