    Summary: .Daenerys Targaryen has many enemies, and it doesn't take long for one to send a Faceless Man after her.It just so happens that this particular Faceless Man looks at dragons and sees a way home.
    Link: Valar Morghulis

    Review: A short little piece for all those who are interested in a bad-ass Arya. I've tried finding them, but, for some completely inexplicable reason, no matter how bad-ass (read sociopathic) they make Arya, she regresses the moment she sees Gendry/Jon/Insert_Romantic_Interest. Which, frankly, is quite irritating considering that the kind of stuff she's growing up with utterly precludes that kind of behavior.

    Anyway, so what this story has to recommend it is that it's short and has that exact kind of Arya that one wishes would return to King's Landing and unleash hell. Some interesting stuff with the dragons, too, but overall, the only reason I'm recommending this story and not putting it in 'Almost Recommended' is due to the paucity of such stories in this fandom.

    4/5.

    IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A RECCED FIC AND CAN'T FIND IT:
    A month or so ago I deleted several of my works in the Teen Wolf and ASOIAF fandoms; they were nothing close to my best work and I wasn't proud of them anymore, so they came down. I also do not keep any of my fics in Word document format or on any other blogs (currently, at least); once they're gone from AO3, they're gone from the world. I'm sorry if this causes anybody any inconvenience!

    I'll have to say 3/5.

    Decent time waster.

    More than a decent time waster, cause I actually liked it very much. It played well with the idea, considering how small this fic was. And also I would really be interested as to what could/would happen if this was continued, when she reaches westeros.

    Of course there are faults, but seeing as how small it is, it didn't matter.

    4/5

    I think it was pretty damn awesome. Way too short, true, and with far too little murdering of Joffrey, but still awesome.
    4/5

    Unless someone's archived it, then the fic isn't coming back.

    Story was deleted by the author intentionally, so the thread is no longer relevant.
