Belated, I know.

Do you go after Kaidan or Ashley in Virmire? Why do you choose that way?

I always go with Kaidan for two reasons; he has a sexy voice and I can't stand Ashley.

In my first playthrough, I chose Ash, because by the time Virmire rolled around I had put too much effort into a relationship with her to start over again with Liara. >_>

That and I'm squeamish about the idea of blue bewbies.

First play-through, I chose Kaiden because I was young and foolish.

Now I can see through his whininess and all the other 7 play-throughs, I have chosen Ashley. That, and I have basically blacklisted the name Kaiden from evil experiences of the real life.

Ashley as well, even though I was wooing Liara. Kaidan just seemed kind of...meh. Ashley just kind of seemed more fleshed out, we knew about her family and all, while we mostly knew about Kaidan's past in Biotic training. Though Id save both if I could really x.x Dern hard choices

I always chose Ashley because Kaidan just annoyed me; he may have had a higher rank, but Ashley was more useful, in my opinion. And she was full of fire & conviction. Her character development throughout the series was & is one of my favorite things about the games. And she's hot, like dang. I hate how they radically changed her appearance in 3. My creys.
