Be Someone (Arya Stark x fem!reader {platonic})

Arya groaned as she scrubbed the floor again. "Why does a girl torture herself?" you asked her, causing her to look up at you. At first, there was fear in her eyes, but then she softened. She was scared of the waif, but not you. True, you were a Faceless "Man", but you were much more kind. You gave the young girl a small smile. "A girl wishes to be no one," she answered you and you shook your head sadly. You knew that Arya was not the right type of person to be a Faceless Man, but Arya had to discover that for herself.

"Is this really a girl's wish? A girl has more to live for than this," you said before walking away. You had a mission to prepare for. Arya sat on the floor, deep in thought. She'd already been blinded by the Many-Faced God once, but Jaqen had welcomed her back. She just had to get through training again and do what was commanded of her. Then she would be no one. It wasn't until Jaqen gave her the name of the one she had to kill that Arya realized she wasn't so sure about being no one.

Arya stared at Lady Crane on the stage the third time she'd been to the performance. As far as Arya could see, Lady Crane was good woman and didn't deserve to die. What she didn't realize was that she was being followed, but not one but two people. The waif, who was to report back to Jaqen and you. You were trying to protect Arya. You knew what the waif was capable of and when Arya refused to kill Lady Crane, like you knew she would, the waif would have to kill her.

"A girl is foolish," you whispered when she was within earshot. Arya had revealed to Lady Crane that another actress wanted her dead. Arya whipped her head around to find you. You placed a finger to your lips, urging her to be quiet and then beckoned her to follow you. When you were safely underground, you whispered, "A girl must leave Braavos and soon. It is no longer safe." The girl nodded and quickly said, "Come with me!"

You shook your head and replied, "A woman cannot. Braavos is her home and she serves the Many-Faced God, but a girl should return to her home." Arya looked at you, her eyes filled with regret. "You will be punished for helping me," she said softly. You smiled. You knew she was right. You would be punished. Jaqen seemed to know everything, including where you were at any given time. "A woman will accept her punishment," you answered sadly before leaving the young girl.

You quickly made you way back to the House of Black and White, hoping to avoid running into Jaqen. Of course, luck was not on your side that night. "A woman has gone against the Many-Faced God," his smooth voice came from behind you. You turned around to face him. He wore a solemn expression. "A woman did," you confirmed. Jaqen nodded, his expression remaining unchanged. "Does a woman regret her actions?" You shook your head honestly. "Then a man may not regret his," he said before plunging a knife in your stomach. Arya left Braavos never knowing the fate of the woman who had helped her to remember that she needed to be someone.
