Ashley closed her eyes and considered her options, she could see that Jeese is not a fool nor unprepared. It means that normal lies won't work on this moment but she didn't feel that she needed to use her powers at this situation. In fact she felt that it is a good for thins to backfire for her and Luka. Now how should she go about this?

She needed to mix lies with truth, she could claim that she was asleep when the gas leak announcement occurred and walked away when she finally woke up and smelled the gas. That should clear things up and provide an explanation. She was about the speak the words to Jeese when Luka suddenly spoke. She didn't need to use a Bootstrap Paradox to know what's going to happen next. 

Reality warped around herself as her clothes changed into a familiar costume. Ashley could do nothing but watch as the idiot leaked everything in front of his friend. He didn't even bother to ask for her opinion about this!

Or the Crow's or Emily's.

"It was actually a bit later in the morning." Ashley corrected as she covered her face, seriously considering the viability of hitting Luka. "And we're not Demigods, just fools confused youths who may or may not antagonized a secret government agency." she spoke, leaning to his lead and showing Jeese a badge.
