Since Silok and T'Karik were both professors at the Vulcan Science Academy, their influence was apparent in Selar. He would often show Akoni the equipment he'd received as gifts from his parents. Wildly interested in scientific items, Akoni grew a passions for Selar's favored field of interest, astronomy. The two spent most nights staring through Selar's telescope, admiring the beautiful Vulcan night sky that differed ever so slightly from that on Tandar Prime. By the end of their visit, Akoni and Selar had become inseparable, despite the faint friction that had sprung between them when the Soriano's arrived. The two exchanged comm addresses and easily stayed in touch. | Since Silok and T'Karik were both professors at the Vulcan Science Academy, their influence was apparent in Selar.

On the return home, Akoni told her parents of the wonderful time she'd had with Selar on Vulcan. Albanaos and Gaiana were very pleased that their daughter had enjoyed herself, until she mentioned her new found love for the sciences. They immediately shunned her interests and scolded her for believing in time consuming and useless research. Shocked by her parents reaction, Akoni dropped her curiosity in science for sometime. Later on in her high education, she was reintroduced to astronomy as well as starship engineering. Her interest was re-sparked and she secretly began to pursue them under her parents surveillance. As soon as Akoni graduated from her secondary schooling, she instantly applied to StarFleet and was accepted 2 months later. | On the return home, Akoni told her parents of the wonderful time she'd had with Selar on Vulcan.

Akoni eventually met an older woman named Takakarai Esperon, an enthusiastic scientist who appreciated astronomy and chemistry who lived near the Soriano's secondary home in the woods. Akoni and Selar were properly introduced after being caught attempting to steal various items from Esperon's laboratory. However, the older woman's anger was short lived as she observed their curiosity of her workshop, and she eventually agreed to let them look around. She watched Akoni grow up from afar and was a major influence on the young Tandaran in her secret pursuit of her scientific studies. | |||

Telling her parents about the news went horribly. They banned Akoni from attending the institution, declaring that she would be wasting her time on "hobbies". Frustrated at their lack of understanding, Akoni left against her parent's will since she was legally of age to live on her own. She left on shaky terms and hateful words, traveling to Earth to attend the StarFleet Academy in San Francisco, where she made several friends. | Telling her parents about the news went horribly.
