there's no such thing as strength in numbers

To befriend Ashley would take patience and time. She won't make it easy, as she can be very suspicous concerning others' motives. Some may even go as far as to call her paranoid. She will try to push away someone who gets close, in an act of self-defense. However, if she truly warms up to someone, it quickly becomes obvious that she has quite the sense of humor, and anyone who puts up with her will come to see that she is very loyal to those she considers a friend.

some are just so much worse than the others

A sure way to get Ashley to dislike you is to use your power against her without getting her permission - even if it's done in a playful, non-harmful way, she will be pissed, and from then on keep her distance. Another way is to approach her wanting to discuss her wings... and if you actually go as far as to touch one, you will be punched in the face.
If she dislikes someone, she will do her best to ignore that person, although if approached and picked on she will retaliate. Physical violence isn't out of the question.

and he told me the strangest thing; that I was beautiful

As a person, Ashley is far from down-right flirty, but she do feel attraction. If the guy she's attracted to shows interest (or at least doesn't appear disinterested), but doesn't take the first step, it is likely that she'll do so herself... but after that, she will probably become ignorant. She doesn't want to put herself out there, knowing that it's easy to get hurt. That won't stop her from becoming interested in someone, and if the interest is mutual... cue stormy-but-cute love story!

relationship things to be here when relationship things exist or something you know right?

[MARGARET ANNA HIRSCH]

MARGARET & ASHLEY

I can see Margaret try to befriend Ashley because her wings make her uber-special. She's rather outspoken and straight forward, so Ashley will know what her motives are, if she asks. But what I think would be interesting is if Margaret (who is an emotional wreck and is terrible with her power) accidentally posses Ashley's body. I can see that happening, since Margaret usually just posses people she admires or wants to be -- she'd be very much inspired to fly, once she sees Ash! Then I'm not sure where a plot could go from there, perhaps enemies? Although Margaret would work hard to regain whatever relationship they had before haha. Let me know if you have any ideas! (:

[MASLYNN LIA ROY]

Maslynn & Ashley

It takes a lot to ward off Massy; she's very tolerant. Massy's also really really against using her powers on other people. So I can see them getting along well for those reasons. Initially. Maybe because Ashley can't tell when Massy's reading her moods (she would probably be able to tell if Massy messed with her mood, though, but Massy would never do that) she wouldn't trust her. Maybe they could start talking for [insert reason here] and Ashley could point that out, and that would really hurt Massy so she would try to do everything she could to get Ashley to trust her? I dunno. Do you have other ideas?

[/div]

Tony would probably try to talk to her, and I could picture her just completely shutting him down. That would really bother Tony; he's sort of sensitive. So I can see them not liking one another. Tony would feel bad about it because he would think that he might have offended her somehow, and he would probably try to get her to like him, but it would probably only end up being annoying to her.

[ASHLEY SARAH MILLER]

Margaret&&Ashley

I think Ashley would appreciate someone who's as straight forward and honest as Margaret is. Though, getting posessed, even if it's by accident, will make her royally pissed off, lol. She's not very forgiving, and she won't just forget about it over a weekend or something. It'd be great if she'd actually started to think of Margaret as a friend before, that will make her even more hurt by it all.
So after that they might not be on great terms for quite some time, but after a time.. who knows? By the way, I did consider putting Ash in the co-ed dorms. 'm sad I didn't, it would've been interesting to see them having to share room after all that possessing stuff.

[/div]

Maybe Massy brings up the wings when they talk? Because that would absolutely make Ashley defensive, and if it looks as if Massy is about to reach out to touch one; that's enough to make her lash out, and quite angrily point out that she doesn't trust her and such. I can see her regretting it later though, and maybe actually apologizing? I'm not sure, either, just thinking out loud here.

Ha, I can see Tony being super nice and helpful, only managing to annoy her even more, up until the point where she has had enough of it; and sort of "explodes" at him, like: "I. don't. like. you. Why can't you accept that and move on with your freaking life?" xD Aaaand, maybe, if-you're-sort-of-up-to-it, I can imagine his persistence making her interested. But that's just a little suggestion~

[MASLYNN LIA ROY]

Maslynn & Ashley

Yeah, I can see Massy trying to talk to her about her wings. Maybe we could place them in a setting where they're sort of obligated to discuss their powers or something like that? I can't really see Massy just coming up to her out of the blue all, "hey, bro, nice wings, how do they work?" xD She'd need an excuse to ask, but she would be curious so she wouldn't hesitate once prompted, you know?

Pahaha. I love that. He would be upset for a week or so and completely ignore her, but after that he'll build up the courage to annoy the crap out of her. xD Aaaaaand that sounds cool. Tony' really dumb so if she made a move and it was obvious enough, he would count that as a victory and probably tell her that he would go out with her -if- she let him get to know her, you know? That doesn't sound like how I'd meant it to come out. Whatever, you get what I'm saying, right? xD

Hahaha yes, that would have been a bit too random I agree. xD So... maybe in class or something? The question is, would they be in the same class... uh... can't think of any other sense-making situations right now. Maybe they just meet in the halls between classes, start talking for some reason, then cue random idiot with rude remark about the wings, and... hmm. Ah, I'll try to think of something!

[/div]

And she would secretly sort of miss it (him being annoying), and when he comes back she would feel a bit relieved... which she would show by being all "oh damn it, you again". xD And I can totally see her rolling her eyes at him when he counts her making a move on him as a victory, and... probably many other times. Haha, aw, I think they'll be really fun to thread. And cute. Which... just... yay~! :3

That sounds like it could work. Maybe Ashley accidentally hit Massy with her wings or something and some idiot makes a snide remark about it. xD

[ABDUL-RAHMAN AL-JARKAS]

ABDUL-RAHMAN AND ASHLEY

Abdul-Rahman is a roughly self-taught vertebrate paleontologist. Naturally, he would be fascinated with a person who possesses wings because of the debates over the origin of birds. Could he possibly ingratiate himself with Ashley to study her wings and compare to those of birds (both extant and extinct)?

He is, well, a socially inept guy, but something could happen, right? I'm guessing that if he did not come off as a lunatic or a pretentious douchebag, he would be fine.

Well, she isn't exactly nice to anyone who walks up to her and wants to talk about her wings - but I figure she's interested in finding out more about them as well, you know? Because she's stuck with them. So yes, he could probably get her to agree to letting him study them, or something. Even though she wouldn't make it easy for him, and all that.

If he treats her too much like a lab rat however... well, that would certainly bring out the very bitchiest side of her. xD

[ABDUL-RAHMAN AL-JARKAS]

ABDUL-RAHMAN & ASHLEY

Hopefully, he won't treat her too much like a lab rat. He could actually teach her how to fly by comparing her wings' structure and comparing them to those of birds and finding which ones they look like the most. He would, of course, need to find out which muscles she would need to use them. Clearly, they are not like pterosaur wings, but he would need to establish that fact.
