* ComingOutStory: After Zaida asks of there's a "Kade" in her life, Suzy admits that she's only attracted to women, much to the surprised curiosity of Zeida. However, Suzy tells Zeida that finding out she was a lesbian was a painful experience, as her [[HeteronormativeCrusader conservative Christian parents]] practically disowned her and she was forced to leave their house. It would be years when she finally had some contact with her family, in the form of her twin sister finally tracking her down and telling her that she disagrees with their parents, and fully supports Suzy, and wants to stay in contact.

* DarkAndTroubledPast: Zaida hasn't revealed much about her life in Zoida, except that she doesn't have a lot of happy memories of her time there. After she returns home after [[spoiler: a disastrous date with Stace where he freaked out after she revealed her horns and [[MindOverMatter telekinesis]]]], she tells Kade what motivated her to escape. She tells Kade that not only was she kept locked up in her house so that [[spoiler: the crystals that grow on her horns could be harvested for some unknown reason]], but she wasn't allowed to go outside unescorted, wasn't allowed to make friends, and wasn't even allowed to use her levitation powers, which is a common feature for zoidans. Every time she asked a question about the outside world, she was told to focus on her studies and not think about the outside world. What little freedom she had in her house came in the form of some toys and a window in her room, which would be taken away if she disobeyed, and her window would be sealed so she couldn't see the outs
