Anna

 * Abusive Parents: Depending on her relation to the V race in general, this might tie in with Bad Boss. Otherwise, her treatment of Lisa in "Hearts & Minds" definitely counts.

Diana:

 * Grandma, What Massive Hotness You Have!: Jane Badler still looks gorgeous. In the story, all of the royal women, Lisa, Anna, and Diana are examples of hotness. Granted this is not their real skin but still.
 * Humanity Is Infectious: Diana began experiencing human emotion which was why her daughter, Anna, locked her away. She knows that Anna is now experiencing human emotion and tells Anna it'll only get worse.
 * In the Back: Diana tells Anna, she did this to her by taking the throne from her.
 * Madwoman in the Attic: Anna put her mother in a secret part of the ship for fifteen years. She did this because Diana experienced human emotions which Anna arguably considers a sickness
 * Man in the Iron Mask: Everyone believes Diana is dead, but what really happened is Anna imprisoned her mother and told everyone she was dead. Anna did this because it was not time for her to take the throne, but she felt it necessary because of Diana's experience of human emotion.
