Ayiana is quite introverted, and doesn't socialize very often, except for official ship functions. When she does partake in public places, she tends to keep to herself. She has never had any romantic relationships, except for a very brief one with Cadfael Peters aboard the Victory. However there have been a few people who have managed to break through her shields and form friendships with Ayiana; or at the very least gained her respect.
Cadfael Peters
During her time attending Starfleet Academy on Trill, Ayiana participated in the Academy's Cultural Exchange Subspace Friend program. She communicated regularly with a Human cadet named Cadfael Peters from Earth Academy. The universe had a sense of humor, it seemed, as they were both posted to the U.S.S. Victory within weeks of each other. Their first meeting was during a combat away mission a day into her posting.
Their second mission together - first contact with the Sunak - ended with Peters injured and Ayiana comatose. During that time, Cadfael stayed by Ayiana's side in sickbay whenever he was off-duty, even putting his "good-luck" watch on her wrist. After Ayiana had woken from her coma, Cadfael had declared his love to her.
The pair's newfound affection would prove to be short-lived, however, as Cadfael was transferred to the U.S.S. Darwin on their next mission. Their relationship would remain a close friendship, and they promised to keep in contact.
Nugra
Captain Nugra has been instrumental in Ayiana's budding Starfleet career. Upon sudden transfer of the Victory's former Chief Science Officer, Captain Nugra decided to promote Ayiana to the position as a newly-minted Lt. JG. While she had doubts herself about the responsibilities of commanding a department, Nugra thought she would do well. He was right. A few months later, Nugra yet again surprised Ayiana by promoting her to full Lieutenant. Ayiana was heartbroken to learn that Nugra would be giving up his command of the Victory, and reassigning most of her crew to a new ship.
While Ayiana may not fully understand the reptilian Gorn, he has no doubt had a significant impact on her life and career. Thus she has come to respect Nugra immensely. She was overjoyed when she discovered Nugra had been assigned to the Gorkon's task force.
Talia Kaji
While Ayiana was comatose following an injury, Talia Kaji used her telepathic abilities to enter Ayiana's mind in an attempt to discover the problem. It turned out Ayiana's symbiont, Sevo, was undergoing a psychotic breakdown caused by a traumatic pre-joined memory. Talia managed to navigate the strange dreamscape of Ayiana/Sevo's minds and managed to mend Sevo's mind; consequently allowing Sevo and Ayiana's minds to rejoin.
This very deep and invasive mental probe left some sort of lingering telepathic connection between Ayiana and Talia, despite the fact that Ayiana, as a Trill, has very limited telepathic abilities. The pair recently discovered that they could "feel" each other in close proximity, and Ayiana's surface thoughts were surprisingly easy to read for Talia, even if she wasn't trying. Bursts of emotion from one was felt particularly powerfully on the other. The two planned to experiment with this newfound connection to see how far they could push this unique relationship. In a way, Ayiana feels this telepathic link has brought her closer to Talia. When Talia was presumed dead on an away mission, Ayiana felt a deep emotional loss, which she couldn't explain at the time.
Kael Tam
From the moment Ayiana first laid eyes on Kael, she had a deep loathing and contempt for the man; feelings she couldn't place since she swore she never met him before. It turned out that Tam used to be a Trill Guardian, those unjoined Trill who dedicate their lives to tending the spawning pools where symbionts are bred. Earlier in his career, he had counseled Toran Sevo for PTSD after the Dominion War, learning about Sevo's previous hosts in the process. It was through Tam that Ayiana learned about Toran. The memories of Toran had been mysteriously suppressed by Sevo, making Ayiana think that Vereesa was her last host, instead of Toran.
Now that her feelings are clear, Ayiana has a begrudging respect for Tam for helping Ayiana reveal a forgotten piece of Sevo's past.
Alucard Vess
One of Ayiana's longest friends in Starfleet, Vess was present on the USS Victory on Ayiana's first day. She has served with him ever since then on both the Victory and Gorkon. At the very least, she considers him a mentor and close friend and confidant.
Eerie
Ayiana has also served with this Brikar since her first day on the Victory, when he was her First Officer. She has served with him over many missions and considers him a strong ally.
Quinn Reynolds
Since her reassignment to the USS Gorkon, Ayiana has come to respect her commanding officer, Rear Admiral Quinn Reynolds, immensely. She sees Reynolds as an authoritative role model, and is constantly trying to earn her respect. A blow came when Reynolds oversaw an inquiry in which Ayiana assaulted a fellow Starfleet officer. Ayiana felt immense guilt at letting Reynolds down. Bridges were eventually mended, however, when Reynolds offered Ayiana the position of First Officer, which Ayiana cautiously accepted.
