** Sure, the characters could all live in one universe together somewhere, but Aile/Grey and Vent/Ashe are almost certainly alternate universes; how could Aile/Vent and Grey/Ashe do all the exact same things? And how could ''both'' of them kill Serpent and Albert?

*** That's just how the story was told, really. They're not all the same, there's some differences. You'd think it would be bloody easy to meld everything together. From my own examinations, it actually would.

*** The answer came to me in a fanfic: Vent turns into Aile (or vice versa) [[Ranma One Half|Ranma 1/2]]-style whenever s/he reverts to human form after Megamerging. Fill in for Grey and/or Ashe as you see fit.

*** Considering that Vent/Aile have just about the same backstory until you get to near the end of the game, it's sort of obvious that they are separate continuities. That said, the Vent/Ashe path seems to be more focused on free will, and the Grey/Aile path seems to be focused on destiny, as neither Vent nor Ashe were really all that important, just schmucks who got Biometals, and Grey/Aile were important figures who were related to Model W and Albert, if I recall correctly.

*** But it's not like it isn't said Vent hasn't got the same blood as Albert either (and Advent practically confirmed that it's a requirement for a Mega Man), and Ashe happens to be Albert's great-great ''granddaughter''. Then you have the bridge in the abandoned lab, which is conspicuously destroyed even in Ashe's story, even though it was blatantly destroyed in the beginning of Grey's story. And don't forget the original profiles in ZX which imply that Vent and Aile exist together, and the anime trailer. I think there is no [[Road Cone]], Capcom just makes it look like one for the sake of re-playability.
