History FandomSpecificPlot / TheLoudHouse

* A fandom-specific plot that was quite popular during the early days of the show was the "[[AdaptationalHeroism Nice Sisters]] vs. [[RonTheDeathEater Mean Sisters]]", which pretty much divided the 10 sisters in these two categories, with the Mean ones (Lori, Luan, Lynn, Lola and Lisa) always berating and abusing Lincoln, while the Nice ones (Leni, Luna, Lucy, Lana and Lily) defend him. This began to die out when the sisters got numerous ADayInTheLimelight episodes exploring their characters.

* One of Lisa's experiments causing something weird to happen to one/two/several/all of her siblings is common (for instance, [[Fanfic/ShrinkinLincoln one fanfic]] involves Lincoln [[IncredibleShrinkingMan being shrunk]] and another involves all the Loud kids switching bodies).

* Even before "No Such Luck" aired, stories of Lincoln running away from home were already popular. Most of these follow [[StrictlyFormula the same basic formula]]; Lincoln gets fed up with his family, and they with him. He runs away. His family instantly goes from being mad at him to a MyGodWhatHaveIDone. While away from home, Lincoln is sometimes taken in by an OC. Something bad befalls him that makes him regret his choice. He returns home, and all is forgiven.
* One of the sisters who isn't straight (usually Luna, but any given sister could be used if the writer makes her bi/pan/otherwise-not-straight; ace-aro Lynn is also a possibility) is victimized and/or abducted by HeteronormativeCrusaders. Said crusaders can also target Clyde for having two dads (possibly even being MistakenForGay by people who assume his fathers "corrupted" him). Depending on the author, Lincoln can get caught up in either version of the plot just for being in the wrong place at the wrong time; typically, if he's kidnapped too, he gets used as leverage so the real target won't act up (and might even be a case of [[MistakenForGay the kidnappers assuming he's not straight due to his relationships]]).

* "Lincoln is adopted" is extremely popular and comes in two flavors: A) Lincoln discovers he's adopted and deals with the resulting AdoptionAngst, or B) an orphaned Lincoln ends up coming in contact with the rest of the Louds and ends up adopted, not always immediately officially but almost ultimately that way, by them. This plot is so common that the series itself even had an episode where Lincoln wonders if he's adopted [[spoiler:([[{{Jossed}} he's not though)]]]].

* One thing that's recently become popular with fans is writing {{WholePlotReference}}s to various Disney movies/shows with the Loud siblings as the main character(s) and their crushes from "L is for Love" (or someone else, [[DependingOnTheWriter depends on who's writing the story]]). In order:
*** Leni and Chaz are often portrayed as [[WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaid1989 Ariel and Eric]].
*** Luna and Sam are often portrayed as [[WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse Luz and Amity]].
*** Luan and Benny are often portrayed as [[WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast Belle and Beast]].
*** Lincoln and Paige are often portrayed as [[WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}} Aladdin and Jasmine]].
*** And Lola and Winston are often portrayed as [[WesternAnimation/SleepingBeauty Aurora and Prince Phillip]].

* One of the sisters who isn't straight (usually Luna, but any given sister could be used if the writer makes her bi/pan/otherwise-not-straight; ace-aro Lynn is also a possibility) is victimized and/or abducted by HeteronormativeCrusaders. Said crusaders can also target Clyde for [[HasTwoMommies having two dads]] (possibly even being MistakenForGay by people who assume his fathers "corrupted" him). Depending on the author, Lincoln can get caught up in either version of the plot just for being in the wrong place at the wrong time; typically, if he's kidnapped too, he gets used as leverage so the real target won't act up (and might even be a case of [[MistakenForGay the kidnappers assuming he's not straight due to his relationships]]).

*** Lincoln and Paige are often portrayed as [[WesternAnimation/Aladdin and Jasmine]].

* Some fans have even done fanfics where Lori finally reciprocates Clyde's feelings.

* A minority of fans have considered any and all episodes (including the Casagrandes TV series) featuring, mentioning, or referencing Ronnie Anne, either non-canon or part of their own continuity separate from the main series. Others have even done rewrites or alternate interpretations for some of these episodes.

* While still a burgeoning field, several fanfics involve giving [[DumbIsGood Leni]] a SuperPoweredEvilSide that's been [[SealedEvilInACan repressed through medication]]- ''and then let it out''.
* On the flip side, Leni's personality can be related to her [[DisabledInTheAdaptation needing meds]] that help her focus; however, she doesn't remember to take them and as such, is the canonical [[TheDitz ditz]]. It varies whether or not she's aware of how ditzy she is, but if she is, she usually hates it.

* One of Luan's pranks ends up [[GoneHorriblyWrong going terribly wrong]] and lands one of her siblings, usually Lincoln but after "Fool's Paradise", Lisa, Lana or even Lily are starting to pop up, in the hospital in critical condition, prompting the rest of the family to chew her out and unofficially disown her. Luan is [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone horrified at what she's wrought]] and tries desperately to redeem herself. And some authors take the above premise and go full on DeathFic with the prank's failure.

* Some stories give Lincoln a closest sister, who he loves more than the others. This will generally be either Leni (due to her kind personality), Luna (due to her bonding with him in "For Bros About to Rock"), Lynn or Lucy (due to them being the closest in age). She will often serve to cheer up Lincoln, be cheered up ''by'' Lincoln, or be the only one siding with him when the rest are angry at him. In "Lincoln runs away" stories, she will often care the most about finding Lincoln, in "Lincoln is angry" stories she will often be the only sister Lincoln isn't mad at (possibly with the exception of Lily) and in "No Such Luck" stories, she will be the only sister who entertains the possibility of Lincoln not being bad luck. A subset of this is the idea that Luna is Lincoln's "guardian", but that's fallen out of use lately.

* One or more of the sisters severely beating Lincoln, then having a MyGodWhatHaveIDone and attempting to make amends. ''{{Fanfic/Syngenesophobia}}'' is the most well-known of these.

* Following their KarmaHoudini status in "Really Loud Music", fans are taking it upon themselves to see that Michelle and Doug get LaserGuidedKarma for their bullying of Luna, often with one or more of her sisters [[BigSisterInstinct taking deep offense on her behalf and taking matters into their own hands]].

* Even before "No Such Luck" aired, stories of Lincoln running away from home where already popular. Most of these follow [[StrictlyFormula the same basic formula]]; Lincoln gets fed up with his family, and they with him. He runs away. His family instantly goes from being mad at him to a MyGodWhatHaveIDone. While away from home, Lincoln is sometimes taken in by an OC. Something bad befalls him that makes him regret his choice. He returns home, and all is forgiven.

* On the flip side, Leni's personality can be related to her [[DisabledInTheAdaptation needing meds]] that help her focus; unfortunately she doesn't remember to take them and as such, is the canonical [[TheDitz ditz]]. It varies whether or not she's aware of how ditzy she is but if she is, she usually hates it.

** Stories featuring or centered on the gender-flipped Loud kids from "One of the Boys" are very popular, though ones of the universe with Linka and her brothers are typical, with most fans ignoring the all-boys universe that Lincoln was in for most of the episode.

** Stories set in the Full House Gang universe from Lincoln and Clyde's comics tend to follow the WakeUpGoToSchoolSaveTheWorld lives of Ace Lincoln and his sisters.

* There are many, many {{Fix Fic}}s, {{Deconstruction Fic}}s, {{Accusation Fic}}s, {{Dark Fic}}s, and {{Revenge Fic}}s for the episode "No Such Luck" (to the point the NSL-fic has pretty much become its own genre within the fandom). The episode involves Lincoln's family ostracizing him due to perceiving him as bad luck. It's played for laughs but involves such things as making an eleven-year-old ''sleep outside at night'', which fans felt went too far and was OutOfCharacter for his sisters and parents. Invariably, many fics for the episode involve Lincoln being kidnapped/killed due to his family's neglect, [[TheRunAway running away]], or feeling depressed due to feeling his family doesn't love him. Similarly, Lincoln's status as a ButtMonkey has been repeatedly called out as unfair and harmful to everyone involved. The more forgiving of these stories show the family trying to regain Lincoln's love and trust, but the harsher ones have them suffer horribly for what they did.

* "Lincoln is adopted" is extremely popular and comes in two flavors: A) Lincoln discovers he's adopted and deals with the resulting AdoptionAngst, or B) an orphaned Lincoln ends up coming in contact with the rest of the Louds and ends up adopted, not always immediately officially but almost ultimately that way, by them. This plot is so common that the series itself even had an episode where Lincoln wonders if he's adopted [[spoiler: ([[{{jossed}} he's not though)]]]].

* Stories featuring or centered on the gender-flipped Loud kids from "One of the Boys" are very popular though the verse with Linka and her brothers is more popular than the all boys verse. The rabbit versions of the Louds seen in "White Hare" are also seen occasionally, though not as often.
* Other AlternateUniverse variations on the Loud siblings also exist, such as swapping the ages and birth orders around, which changes character dynamics by quite a bit.

* Stories set in the Full House Gang AU tend to follow the WakeUpGoToSchoolSaveTheWorld lives of Ace Lincoln and his sisters.
** A less common related trend is giving the siblings original powers and a different superhero team name. It roughly follows the same idea, but lets the writers get more creative.

* One of the sisters who isn't straight (usually Luna but any given sister could be used if made bi/pan/otherwise-not-straight; ace-aro Lynn is also a possibility) is victimized and/or abducted by HeteronormativeCrusaders. Said crusaders can also target Clyde for [[HasTwoMommies having two dads]] (possibly even being MistakenForGay by people who assume his fathers "corrupted" him). Depending on the author, Lincoln can get caught up in either version of the plot just for being in the wrong place at the wrong time; typically, if he's kidnapped too, he gets used as leverage so the real target won't act up (and might even be a case of [[MistakenForGay the kidnappers assuming he's not straight due to his relationships]]).

* TheReveal about [[KidsAreCruel Lynn's hellish experiences in sixth grade]] in "Middle Men" has prompted fans to write stories where either A) Lincoln confronts the other teens about the matter, leading to sibling bonding and commiseration or B) an AU occurs because one of the older girls finds out about Lynn's troubles and [[BigSisterInstinct is not happy in the slightest, leading to them taking on the bullies on Lynn's behalf]]. This can also play out in the form of a proceeding episode's plot (usually ones that show Lynn in her worst light) taking a detour so that TheReveal from "Middle Men" happens earlier, leading to sibling bonding.
* Any story featuring the Loud children in their future adult lives will invariably have Lincoln as a comic book artist or cartoonist, even though that's just one of his potential goals in life. After all, it's the one occupation Lincoln already shows talent at and considered the most fitting to him thanks to the show's very own comic book aesthetic.
* The series is prone to IncestYayShipping, which is given the nickname "Loudcest" and usually involves shipping Lincoln with his sisters, ''even Lily''. This has spun off into an entire FanVerse called [[Webcomic/SinKidsAU Sin Kids]], focusing on the love children of Lincoln and his sisters.
