Yeah, I liked it. I tihnk it's good.

I wonder what happened to Tali and Garrus if they're stranded there, as well. Keep in mind - if the planet is habitable for Ash, it means those two have a serious food problem.

EDIT: Top of the page Ash!

Well, it still sounds like an awesome project ... I wonder: who are the best people writing such stuff? And even if we do it, what "headcanon" will make it? A specific one or condensed stuff by all writers put into one "super canon"?

Just asking. I like that idea. Ashley deserves it. =)


I think this will be a team effort. Anyone who wants to write should come forward. I think we come up with a head cannon by voting on most everything that needs it.

We could assign who writes what or if two people want to work on the same thing, they can collaborate and someone else can do a voice pass.

This. In fact we cvan do that now: Who wants in on this Ashley-content-project ? So we can get an idea of how many people want to work on this. That might be handy for determining a realistic size for the project. (I'm in btw ;))

We'll have to devide the content at some point and have a Topic for each where we can post Writings and critique, or something like that.


Sign me in. I do even have an idea who can do what, maybe we need some head writers and some "normal" writers. Whatever kind of organization we have in the end, it shouldn't die before it's finished.

My main question is: in case we do the project, where do we start? Do we re-write the entire story ME1 -> ME2 -> ME3? Or is it more Pre-ME1 -> ME1 -> Between -> ME2 -> ME3 -> Post-ME3?

Grunt as a baby-sitter. I'd want to see that!


You make it sound as if they're would be problems. :P

He would probably end up actually sitting on the poor kid by mistake. :lol:

That or attempt a Krogan bear hug... :blink:

RE: Project thingy, I'll help where ever I can.

@Survivor, that was amazing! Not many people can describe hand-to-hand(paw/claw) combat without it ending up sluggish or overly descriptive. That was really impressive. Nice work! :wizard:

I did have a load more pics but they seem to have gone AWOL. Oh well! :pinched:

With regards to Garrus and Tali, am working off the " http://shannon.users...net/masseffect/" epilogue slides.

Two very good pieces of writing, very well done.

@DWH, that was great, hahaha Grunt or Jack as babysitters makes me laugh. Poor Shepard though he won't get that special hotel...love...time ;)

I'd hang it on the wall, but my roommates might think I'm odd.

Yup organization is key, as long as it's not too strict. Do share your ideas on it.

That's all up for discussion at the moment. As is the size of the project, depends a bit on the amount of people wanting to work on it too.

Well, Brainheart, I'd love to see a full blown fictional story - Ashley centered, with Shepley in the end *g*

Besides that - I don't know. Maybe a prologue with Ash and her 212 before Saren attacked. After that ... well, we all know ME1 and the story. Most interesting part here is to describe how Ashley slowly became more and more trustful towards Garrus, Tali, Wrex and Liara. And of course, the development of her love for Shepard.

ME2 can be interesting but also the lowest point of the entire story - beating the reader down, so to speak. Did Ash go after a new love? How did she deal with the loss of Shepard? And what did she do while not in touch with Skipper? Promotion to Operations Chief and LC?

ME3 ... well. We all know what we wanted - and what we never got. :(

I think the best thing would be to focus on period from Shepard's death to the start of ME3.

For most of us, I think that's the most glaring hole in Ash's story.

@DWH, don't worry about roommates thinking your odd. My roommates are not gamers in any way so when they heard I played a trilogy of games for over 100 hours and one video game for like 40 hours then signed up to the forums to talk about it they all mocked me. Now every time they see me on here they roll their eyes and call me sad but you know what? They don't know the joy of Mass Effect and Ashley Williams with Commander Shepard!!!

Am actually creating a fic for Ashley's role during the battle of the citadel.

What?

Pretty sure Ash was with Edwin Shepard and Garrus during the Battle of the Citadel. Posted Image

Might also be hard to explain if I ever invite a date into the apartment.

Of course, the general "man cave" atmosphere of the place already limits me from doing that. We clean once every few months, whether the apartment needs it or not.

Hey guys I was on youtube and found this (don't know if any of you have seen it or not)



It actually isn't too bad, a bit cheesy at the end but it has Ashley and Shepard getting together and doesn't include Starchild. It is worth watching, especially maybe for DWH who doesn't acknowledge the current endings

I like that picture.

And I don't get Bioware. What's the point of giving us these great LIs, letting us form attachments to them over 2 to 3 games, and then making it impossible for our character to be with them in the end?

Well, now that I have seen this, I'd love to ask for a volunteer creating something similar with much better quality, dealing will all characters, less cheesiness and better closure.

Won't happen, but a man can dream, right?

@DWH:
Some guy @ BW seems to love sad endings. <_<

My Sony Vegas knowledge is limited at best and I frankly don't have the time unless I really dedicated myself to it. Would require capturing game footage to use, editing it...blah blah blah.

Meh. :unsure:

I know this is a romance thread but I need someone to help me with this. I have a quick question regarding ME1, I wanna save Ash but not romance her, is there anyway I can do that because every time I save her it seems to go down with the romance path, I don't want to have to leave her behind on Virmire just to not romance her, so can someone help!
