Tan wouldn't call himself a very close friend of Tracey's, but he certainly respects her a great deal. When Tracey was promoted to a full Lieutenant, Tan figured she wasn't that far away from her own ship. | * [[Townson, Tracey]] - Tan finds Tracey to be an incredibly competent officer who has the intestinal fortitude to tell her superiors the truth without sugar-coating it.

* [[Whale, David]] - Tan and Whale never really spoke, until Tan punched a bulkhead right in front of him. Dealing with the fallout of his failed relationship with [[Riley, Sidney|Captain Sidney Riley]] just as Whale was dealing with avoiding his feelings for [[Shelley, Fiona|Doctor Fiona Shelley]], Tan and Whale struck up an fast friendship... both within days of transferring off the Independence to different postings (Whale to the [[Constitution|Constitution-B]], Tan to the [[Devinon V|Vaadwaur planet]]). Not getting to know Whale better is one of the great disappointments of Tan's life, and he made an effort to call Whale via subspace while he was on Devinon. | * [[Whale, David]] - Tan and Whale never really spoke, until Tan punched a bulkhead right in front of him.

' | Tan's romance with [[Riley, Sidney|Sidney Riley]] is one for the romanticists, the dreamers, the story writers... | ||
Tan and Riley hit it off immediately, and within days of meeting each other had arranged a date and spent a fair amount of time together. Tan and Riley went on one-and-a-bit dates, kissed several times, Riley called herself 'his girl'... but after she was injured in [[Operation Bright Star]], Tan threw himself into helping her recover. | |||
But nothing could wake Sidney from her slump. It took the surprise, somewhat-frightening visit of [[Clack, Darius|an old friend of Sidney's]], along with a powerful kiss from that friend, to make her remember who she was. Hours later, Sidney broke it off with Tan, citing his protectiveness and several possessive comments had made to the crew... but stressed to him that she wanted to remain his friend. Devastated, Tan could not cope with the rejection and his mounting personal issues and sought a leave of absence. | But nothing could wake Sidney from her slump.

He later came to realise that Sidney was a symptom and not a problem; that while he feels that she was cruel and flippant with his feelings, the majority of the fault lies with him and his issues. | He later came to realise that Sidney was a symptom and not a problem; that while he feels that she was cruel and flippant with his feelings, the majority of the fault lies with him and his issues. Tan was happy that Riley had found someone who could truely love her, care for her as he did... | ||
... but sometimes Fate can surprise you. Riley called Tan while he was on the planet, checking up on him. In a conversation that went for hours the two slowly became to realise that there was room in their hearts for second chances. Tan rushed back to Deep Space 17 as the USS Independence-A left Wheeler colony, with the two of them invited to [[Ehlanii, Karynn|Karynn Ehlanii]]'s wedding. | |||
They spent a night in Tan's temporary apartment. Now the future awaits... | |||
