Tristam met Roshanara Rahman whilst serving as an ensign aboard the {{USS|Pioneer}}. A hard worker and passionate about her field, the two banter about propulsion technology in comparison to theoretical transwarp beaming. Unfazed by her reputation as somewhat of a 'slave driver', the Rodulan offers to assist with her slipstream drive project. | Tristam met Roshanara Rahman whilst serving as an ensign aboard the {{USS|Pioneer}}.

During the time Roshanara was not aboard the Garuda, Tristam was reunited with his ex, [[Sanchez, Juanita|Juanita Sanchez]], when the Maquis attacked (and sabotaged) DSX. Whilst working to create an EMP, Juanita managed to coax Tristam into talking about Roshanara (though he didn't mention her by name). Juanita encouraged him to go after her, or else he'd regret it. | During the time Roshanara was not aboard the Garuda, Tristam was reunited with his ex, [[Sanchez, Juanita|Juanita Sanchez]], when the Maquis attacked (and sabotaged) DSX.

After the situation on DSX had been contained (and after theirs setting off an EMP), Tristam ended up in Bakari's quarters, who then gave Tristam an itinerary for Roshanara's travel, further encouraging him to go after her. Waiting for a chance to leave the Garuda, Tristam found himself unable to repair his own toolkit - they had been severely damaged from the release of the EMP, and the tools Tristam had then been using to repair them were faulty for unknown reasons. After returning that toolkit to the Engineering locker, Tristam found Roshanara's personal kit, with a note to him. Using her kit, he was subsequently able to repair the rest of his tools (except, for some unknown reason, his PADD). | After the situation on DSX had been contained (and after theirs setting off an EMP), Tristam ended up in Bakari's quarters, who then gave Tristam an itinerary for Roshanara's travel, further encouraging him to go after her.

Much later, the two discuss the possibility of going to Rodul, having been many years since Tristam had seen home. Roshanara expresses a small amount of concern over exactly how much Tristam's family already know about their relationship, of which he explains isn't actually all that much. | Much later, the two discuss the possibility of going to Rodul, having been many years since Tristam had seen home.

When Roshanara is reassigned as captain of the {{USS|Syracuse}}, she recommends Tristam as First Officer to [[Joseph Washington]]. He would later refurbish the Syracuse lounge into a self-sufficient holodeck, concerned that a ship of engineers could not test future developments. Catching him mid-refurbishment, she'd go on to assist him. | When Roshanara is reassigned as captain of the {{USS|Syracuse}}, she recommends Tristam as First Officer to [[Joseph Washington]].

Two Rodulan engineers board the Veritas to oversee the use of Rodulan technology in the upgrades to ships communications, and Tristam starts to feel uncomfortable working with them looking over his shoulder due to his age and "inexperience". Because of this, he begins to triple check his own work, and at one point, forwards adjustments already confirmed by the ship's [[Luna Walker|chief engineer]] to Roshanara to confirm. Given that he is already a qualified engineer, she replies in a memo questioning why he forwarded it to her in the first place. | Two Rodulan engineers board the Veritas to oversee the use of Rodulan technology in the upgrades to ships communications, and Tristam starts to feel uncomfortable working with them looking over his shoulder due to his age and "inexperience".

In mid-2394, Tristam is reassigned to [[Outpost 3]], and the two are once again faced with a long-distance relationship. With their last separation fresh in their minds, Roshanara expresses concern that he may feel trapped in an obligation to her despite being separated by lightyears of space. He assures her that he doesn't feel that to be the case, and they both promise to be better. | In mid-2394, Tristam is reassigned to [[Outpost 3]], and the two are once again faced with a long-distance relationship.
