Oh yeah, Talim is a good option for him as well. Mainly with your points on closeness of age and personality traits. I've thought about Link with Ivy and Taki but it seems highly unlikely since Ivy would fit better with Raphael and Taki with Mitsurugi or Maxi. But SC Links best bets IMO are Talim, and maybe Cassandra, and Sophitia.
