I think if you said that Ash would probably go back for joker.

Mmmkay, y'all. Ash-related question. How much time passes, do you think, between Horizon and when Ash sends her note? The game doesn't really say. I was thinking 2-3 weeks, but now I'm thinking it could be longer.

there's no way to know...fans will just think of a time they want to...

I would say about that yes, but it could be longer if you spend hours mining planet's, hours are like day's in ME. It would be good if ME had a timer like in the Fallout games.

Thanks for the thoughts, guys. I think I'll run with 2 weeks.

I think Bioware should give us a clock on the start menu, it wont take up much time to do or take up much resources.

Well, I think she sends the mail shortly after she got back to the citadel to report to Anderson. She got picked up just after the attack by alliance vessels and the trip to the citadel takes... hmm, maybe 24 hours (?), she reports to anderson, goes to her quarters or a hotel room and tries to sleep. However, we all know that she is in too much emotional turmoil to sleep anyway and that´s when she sits down in front of her terminal and decides to put her thoughts on paper. Shep receives it maybe 48h after they met each other. (in game its just one mission)

And coming back to the question who I think was more mad at Jokers interruption during the locker scene...
I think it was Shepard. My Shep wanted to do that for a long time and just when Ash gave him the green light and he thought it would finally happen... couldn´t Joker have waited 10 more seconds?!
But some day I will get my revenge on Joker... some day...

It's cool, don't worry!  I just didn't want people to think I'm using Claudia Black as an Ashley reference, LOL.  I try to have a thick skin about criticism, but I do have some professional pride.  And like I said, I understand that it really *isn't* in character for Ash.  Although I do think that if Shepard has been really, really good...

*Chris Crocker voice* LEAVE TEEN ALOOOOOOONE!!!!!
Seriously, most of us love your work. We are in the process of exterminating the heretics.

First topic I missed: Ash was a bit madder than Shepard in that situation I think. Her expression was very well done.

Second topic: I don't know just how long it took her to get to the Citadel but I imagine the realization of what Shepard was doing came pretty quick so I imagine...1-2 weeks.

I have never really thought about it. It didn't seem long till Ash sent the email. But time lines have always been a problem for me. They could do a better job of giving us a feel for how long the time is between different parts of the game.

That actually lead to much debate on the Kaidan thread.

I remember we were discussing whether or not you should be allowed to resume your LI1 relationship if you cheated.  Most people were like know.  From Shepard's perspective you were dating two weeks ago and BAM! Check out this pyschadelic lizard.

But then others contended that had to take some time to gather all those people and make the improvements to your ship so it was probably more like 6 months.

Damn, I have never killed a thread so well.

Only because we use the off topic tread most of the time.

On the topic at hand I say it is about 2-3 weeks before Shepard receives Ashley's letter after Horizon.

Did you paragon or renegade Ashley? Or left her as is?

[Errol Dnamyx]

I agreed to her point of view and didn´t try to sway her. And her opinion on wether or not to save the council was the same that I had. What have they ever done for us?

I unashamedly paragoned her - if not only for that dialogue option where I can ask her if she'd kiss anyone I ordered her to.

who here does not ask her to use the dialogue option to kiss shepard?

[drunken pyromaniac]

I paragoned her, I like how she's more open-minded but still commited to human self-sufficience when you go that route. If there was a path to...soften her views but not change them entirely I would take that instead.

I also paragoned her, Seemed the best thing to do. for the same reason Drunk pyro said.

[RazerPhoenix]

Personally I feel no need to influence her character either way, paragon or renegade.



To go outwith the context of the game, what makes a strong squad or team is the fact the everyone will have a unique viewpoint and opinion. To take that away and have everyone with similar mindsights, with no one to oppose or object to any ideas would seriously impact the integrity of the team.



Besides, I fully respected and appreciated her character as she was, and felt no need to try and change her into someone else.



You must remember Ashley is a soldier, and what could be considered by some to a negative attitude and distrust towards others (aliens), personally I seen as a good thing, sharing similar an outlook myself. A soldier must always be prepared and expecting the worst situation, that isn't to say they are hoping for it however, but they have expected it as a possilble outcome.

[ashlover mark 2]

@errol haha that miranda picture is epic win.....even if she did put her hair in a bun it wouldnt help none....even though im no fan of buns on females only ash can rock the mass effect space hair bun just like shes the only one who rock phenoix armor in the ME universe not even a custom fem shep can rock the space hair bun ash FTW!!!!



as for the paragon issue i always paragon her....as some have stated there is nothing wrong with her views,shes pro human/alliance wich means she only really cares about advanceing her own race thats perfectly undertsand able too anyone who has an open mind.....HOWEVER seing as my shep is paragon and belives in inter speacis coperation with one another ashleys views can be problomatic.....plus she becomes more open minded if you paragon her which is always a good thing.

Very true, I agree.

Besides, I fully respected and appreciated her character as she was, and felt no need to try and change her into someone else.

Are you saying everyone else doesn't respect and appreciate her?

I agree with her opinions, actually. I just think she needs to soften them somewhat. Not everyone is out to get humanity but on the other hand many bear less than noble intentions towards us. so it's an understandable viewpoint.

Put that down to poor wording on my part, I'm sure you all do. I was simply trying to state why would anyone try change her outlook at all it wasn't something you held against her.

I do not believe in God. Ashley does, I will disagree with her over this matter, but I'm not going to dislike her because of it or try to turn her into an atheist. It is afterall her own opinions and beliefs.

As long as she is capable of at least being civilised towards other species when needed, which she has clearly demonstrated. I see no problem.
