Summary
“We need your help to access the Road. The Witches’ Road.”
For a very long moment, everything is still.
Then, Ava’s laughter fills the room.
Yes, Ava knows about the Road. And it is true that she is probably one of three people currently alive on Earth who know how to access it. But she also knows, doing so is a death wish. She knows only of one Coven that managed to access it, and of one person who survived it; and it has been centuries since then.
“Ah, you need help alright,” she mutters, as the last of her chuckle fades. “That door behind you with ‘Exit’ written on it leads right to it, you can go ahead and walk straight through it. Best of luck. Goodbye, now.”//
Or, Astra and Spooner ask for Ava's help to access the Road. They're missing a Coven, Ava hasn't practiced magic in years, and most of the witches they know hate each other. However, the promise of receiving the thing they seek most is very enticing to all of them; especially those who seek revenge (which is most of them, really).
An AU inspired by Agatha All Along, but this story has its own lore and laws.

Summary
“I will heal your father, in exchange for your firstborn.”
For a second, the words don’t sink in.
“What?”
“It is obviously not a common payment anymore, although it has been, in ancient times, for magical beings of my kind. Nowadays, with the new range of possibilities available, this has ceased to be a widespread mean of magical debt settlement. But, of course, an exception can be made.”
Sara is still staring at her, mouth agape, unsure about how to respond. She doesn’t fully believe they’re understanding each other, because what Sara is gathering from this conversation is that the witch is demanding a child – an actual human newborn – as payment for a spell.
Magic isn’t even real.//
Or, a story inspired by the prompt: "Years ago, you promised your firstborn to a witch. Since then, despite your best efforts, you can’t seem to get laid. The witch is starting to get pretty pissed." by writing prompts on tumblr

Summary
Ava Sharpe is standing in front of the blackboard, chalk in her right hand and her notebook in her left. She has her blue cardigan on over her white shirt, and when she looks up at Sara who just burst through the door, her glasses slip down her nose. She fixes them back with her right hand and the chalk powder stains her hair in the process. The sight punches Sara in the guts. Hence, no breath.
“Sharpe. I have some major news. [...] It’s about the FIIST!” She makes a victorious fist gesture to emphasize what she means, as if Ava is supposed to get what the hell she’s talking about.
“Wow, you move fast. I guess good for you, if she’s into that kind of thing,” Ava’s frowning at something on the board now, she scratches her chin in a pensive manner and the chalk marks her skin there.
Sara loses herself in the movement for a second. “No, Ava, you’re not getting it. The Female Inter-faculty Indoor Soccer Tournament."//
Or, Sara's a Chemistry PhD candidate; Ava is a Physics Professor.
Sara's soccer team is short one faculty member, so now she's trying to get Ava to play. One small, insignificant problem: Ava seems to be physically unable to stand on a soccer field without PTSD flashbacks. -

Summary
“I don’t like to talk about it, about that night. I don’t even like thinking about it. But I could tell you about her. My wife. She was very brave. [...] The nightmares… they never really go away, but they get rarer, and it gets better. Eventually, you can live with it. The loss. After that, you have to make a choice. Move on,” she finally looks at Spooner, “and you should move on,” she makes it clear she means it. “Or, make them pay.”
Sara has made her choice long before. She fosters it, nurtures it, that feeling in the pit of her stomach. The rage. The vengeance. The bloodthirst. She cares for it like an old friend, it stands beside her through everything, it guides her and drives her more than anything else.
Everything else that once took space in her has been consumed by it.//
Or, Sara loses her wife, and decides she would gladly burn the world to the ground to avenge her. A dangerous path, with very steep costs - one of which may be losing her all over again.
Or: The Girls vs The Justice League (The Boys AU)
(Edit, because a few people have mentioned to me not reading because of it: the Major Character Death warning isn't for Ava/Sara)

Summary
Ava Sharpe dies on August 10th, 1891, at the age of thirty-eight.
“We have loved each other dearly, haven’t we?”
“As much as a human being can love another."
Ava smiles. “Do not cry for me. We have found each other in this life. We will find each other again.”August 10th.
That is the day when everything ends.
Incidentally, that is also the day when everything begins.//
Ava Sharpe dies on August 10th, 1891, at the age of thirty-eight.
There would be nothing out of the ordinary about that, if not for the fact Ava Sharpe is not born in 1853. In fact, Ava Sharpe is not even born Ava Sharpe.(Or: this is not a story about how Ava dies; this is a story about how Ava gets to live.)

The year is 2020 and only two Astronauts of Ares 22 and 23 volunteered to remain on Mars for the mission of a lifetime: Janitor duty. One hundred and eighty days of isolation with only each other for company… along with thousands of fans, over-protective Mission Control, and a “Roomba” with a hat.

Summary
Ginny sighed and slumped back in her seat. “You’re letting him win. He’s winning the breakup!”
“Everything you’re saying is ridiculous! You can’t win a breakup.”
“Obviously you can, and Ron is doing it!”
“You’re being childish. Not everything is about winning and losing.”
--
Ron and Hermione have recently broken up, and Ginny — concerned for her best friend — has decided that the only thing for Hermione to do now is to date someone new to make Ron jealous. And who better than Hermione’s best friend (and coincidentally Ron’s younger sister) to drive him absolutely mental?
