Summary: Sarah Williams is eighteen during the Eden Prime War and twenty-one during the Reaper War.
Notes: Written for [tumblr.com profile] ladiesofmasseffect and [tumblr.com profile] omegastation's Rare Female Characters Week. This started life as meta pointing out her estimated age during the game events which impact her, but then all my headcanon about her life that I couldn't work into my main fic universe fell in.
Related works: References a few events from the Relay Monument Incident universe, hence the tag, but can definitely stand alone.

She's six when she starts aikido on Ferris Fields and ten when her father's transferred to Amaterasu's token garrison and the whole family moves planets for the third time in her life. )

Summary: Garrus changes his mind about not risking Ashley's career (much). As it turns out, she doesn't need to be talked into staying in contact. Absence makes the heart grow fonder. E-mail logs for Garrus Vakarian on Omega and then on the Normandy SR-2. "This user has been reassigned. Please contact their commanding officer for their current e-mail address."
Notes: Haha whoops I managed to make it work. I should perhaps note that besides Joker and Chakwas, these weren't the only e-mails Garrus sent to the Normandy squad, just the only ones Ash-related.

I didn't realize six months had gone by. )

Rating: PG13 (language)
Words: ~5370
Summary: Garrus changes his mind about not risking Ashley's career (much). As it turns out, she doesn't need to be talked into staying in contact. Absence makes the heart grow fonder. E-mail logs for Gunnery Chief Ashley Williams, stationed at Systems Alliance Rapid Response Base 3. "I'm so glad you changed your mind about not staying in touch."
Notes: Ashley's third to last e-mail was run through the Zantherus Drunk Post Translator, which is why some of the typos look extremely unlikely. But who knows what future keyboard layouts are like? Her quote is from "Mad Girl's Love Song" by Sylvia Plath. "Dad loved all those sappy poets. Mom was more into Plath." Soundtrack: "Living in Your Letters" (unplugged) by Dashboard Confessional.

In case the e-mail address didn't give it away, it's your cultural exchange/xenobiology research partner. )

Damn, Ash, I didn't know you cook. )
