When Lincoln and his girlfriend Miko meet a new friend at High Five at the Hinobi Smash tournament, the three of their lives are changed forever when they learned a new truth. Video Games can some for life, and they can be quite destructive. Armed with some of the best gaming skills one can have, this trio is ready to take on anything, no matter how glitchy things get.
A The Loud House and Glitch Techs crossover by Ninjamon1228. This fic takes place in a world where Miko Kubota doesn't end up friendless after kicking the head of a Freddy Fazbear knockoff but impresses a boy who thought the animatronic was equally creepy by the name of Lincoln Loud. From there the two become each other's oldest and dearest friends, and eventually boyfriend and girlfriend.
The story starts before episode one of Glitch Techs. With the two already being a couple as they both manage to land an invite to the Hinobi Smash Tournament.

Loud Techs provides examples of:
- Adaptation Relationship Overhaul:
- With a real friend beside her, Miko's family is more supportive of her gaming career than they are in canon. Also thanks to her parents becoming friends with Lynn Sr and Rita, the Kubota's are better able to schedule their time so their relationships amongst themselves is less stressful.
- Miko chased Ronnie Anne away from Lincon's house and threatened her with a beating if she didn't stop bullying her. Thus Lincoln and Ronnie Anne never kiss and never develop feelings for each other.
- Alternate Universe Fic: Aside from the crossover, the author states that in this fic No Such Luck never happened.
- Childhood Friend Romance: Lincoln and Miko become friends at six, become boyfriend and girlfriend at eleven, and consummate their feelings for each other at sixteen.
- The Chosen One: Miko initially believes that this might be the reason she's immune to having her memory wiped, though she accepts Lincoln's explanation that it's probably because of her ADHD making her brain chemistry too different to effect, as more likely.
- Cloudcuckoolander: Miko fits this naturally as she's not only full of energy but can be extremely unpredictable.
- Distracted by the Sexy: Miko suggests after getting hired as Glitch Techs they should celebrate. When Lincoln says they should probably wait till tomorrow all she has to do is mention she's wearing a g-string for him to give in.
- Ship Sinking: Miko ruins any chances of Lincoln kissing Ronnie Anne the first time, and later Lincoln's sisters help make sure the ship is never salvaged by getting Lincoln and Miko to confess. Much to the chagrin of Lori.
- Shipper on Deck: Or rather shippers, as everyone from both families (sans Lori) love the idea of Miko and Lincoln together and even set up mistletoe so they'd share their first kiss, and then their feelings with each other.
- Shout-Out: After setting the tv back to shows after the Hanabi competition glitch, Lincoln feels brief concern about cartoons coming to life.Last thing they needed to be brought to life were talking frog people, incompetent green aliens, or the son of a shepard.
- Somebody Doesn't Love Raymond: Lori's never liked Miko, even as a kid, thinking she was too hyper and weird. And Miko beating the crap out of Lincoln's bully, Ronnie Anne, who Lori later found out was Bobby's little sister, certainly didn't improve the oldest sister's opinion of her. She's literally the only member of both families that doesn't support Lincoln and Miko's relationship because she wanted to hook him up with Ronnie Anne, simply because she's Bobby's sister.
- Their First Time: What Miko gives her boyfriend for his 16th birthday present note .
- Throw the Dog a Bone: In the series, Lincoln worries about not being as talented as his sisters. Here it's clear he's incredibly skilled at video games and has a Pokemon regional championship to prove it. With his parents and sisters fully supporting him in the tournament.
- Violently Protective Girlfriend: Not yet his girlfriend, but when Miko sees Ronnie Anne walking towards Lincoln's house, her first instinct is to jump her and begin attacking her, even biting her arm like a mad dog. Before threatening her that she'll do worse if she ever picks on Lincoln again.
- Under the Mistletoe: Their siblings minus Lori come together to get a piece above Lincoln and Miko's heads. Miko is the one to take initiative with Lincoln reciprocating after a moment.
