** And finally, unsurprisingly, Rick himself, just like in canon. He frequently takes his time lambasting the siblings for doing things that aren't any different from what he does, usually out of the need to assert dominance over his grandchildren.

Added DiffLines:

* StatusQuoIsGod: Very much [[AvertedTrope Averted]] for ''The Loud House'' characters and [[DeconstructedTrope deconstructed]] for ''Rick and Morty's''. Unlike in the Nickelodeon show, the story enforces continuity and serialization elements, forcing any development and every change within its cast of characters to stick, eliminating the AesopAmnesia the show tends to suffer. On the other hand, like in canon, owing to his callousness, Rick believes that by jumping to a new universe, everything returns to the way they were before disaster struck, but it poses serious mental consequences for both himself and the Loud children (who experienced devestating trauma fron the ordeal) as it goes on. Because the continuity is more prominent here, Rick actually shows some remorse and self-loathing over what he's done.

* RuderAndCruder: It certainly won't be ''Rick and Morty'' without the vat of profanity and BlackComedy it's very known for. Crossing it with ''The Loud House'' makes this result, with even its characters in on the dirty humor as well.

* PragmaticAdaptation:
** In general, the story goes in the order of the ''Rick and Morty'' episode list, while ''Loud House'' episodes vary depending on which ones mesh in better. This means that the events of later ''Loud House'' episodes occur much earlier than in ''Loud House'' canon, and vice versa. For example, Chapter 4, "No Laughing Matter For M Night Shaymaliens", combines the plot of "No Laughing Matter" (''Loud House'' episode 39) and "M. Night Shaym-Aliens!" (''Rick and Morty'' episode 4).
** Rita and Lynn Sr. do not have the same dysfunctional marriage as Beth and Jerry did. In fact, the Loud parents aren't nearly as important to the story as Beth and Jerry, with much of their focus instead going to their children.
** Charles/Spot ends up playing the role of Snuffles/Snowball from "Lawnmower Dog." Like Snuffles/Snowball, Charles/Spot decides to leave Earth so he build his own society on an inhabited planet. As such, Charles/Spot is never seen again for the rest of the story. A similar scenario happens to Cliff later in the story, who fills in for the role of the Talking Cat from "Claw and Hoarder: Special Ricktim's Morty".
** When Lori breaks Lincoln's gaming goggles, instead of sending her a nasty voice message, he vents his frustration to Rick. Rick then decides to help Lincoln by entering Lori's dream and get her to stop acting so bossy. After entering her dreams, Lincoln realizes that Lori actually doesn't enjoy being in charge of her siblings and was genuinely hurt when Lincoln called her the worst sister ever. From that point onwards, Lincoln and Lori's relationship improves quite dramatically compared to their series proper.
** Instead of Anatomy Park being build inside of a homeless man, the park was instead built inside Ronnie Anne when Rick sees her picking on Lincoln at one previous point. And unlike the homeless man, Ronnie Anne is safe and alive with Rick assuring that the amusement park won't actually hurt her. A more minor note, but Carol plays the role of Annie from the original episode. Unlike Annie, she did ''not'' like working at Anatomy Park, and once she escapes from Ronnie Anne's body, Carol immediately storms off.
** Tammy's role in the story is slightly larger than in her respective canon, as she is written as being a childhood friend of Lori and Carol. [[spoiler:When Tammy reveals herself to be an undercover agent for the Galactic Federation, Lori and Carol are more distraught over this revelation unlike Summer, who apparently got over it]].
** In canon, Rick's motivation for taking down the Galactic Federation and, in the process, the Citadel of Ricks was purely out of spite for Jerry even suggesting that Rick should be turned into the Federation. In the story, Rick taking down the Federation and Citadel was instead motivated by a genuine effort for his family to live a more normal life. And while he does impersonate Lori while turning himself in, he doesn't use that to ostracize her from the rest of her family when he reunites with them later.
** Because Lincoln and his sisters spend more time adventuring with Rick and most of the chapters retell episodes of ''Rick and Morty'', there is less time for any of them to hang out with their usual friends. For example, Clyde, Rusty, Liam, Margo, Paula, and Benny barely made any appearances in the whole story.
*** It was revealed in "Rick or Treat" that Ronnie Anne's friends were killed when the Galactic Federation wiped out Great Lakes City, as the alternate dimension Rick and company visited has everyone who died in the primary dimension to be alive.
*** The author has stated that he has no plans for Stella to appear in the story. So whether she will make her debut at some point of the story or not is unknown.
** Due to Rick's and the ''Rick and Morty'' cast's presence intersecting within ''The Loud House'''s lore, numerous episodes and future events from the show end up becoming averted and/or altered due to Rick's and the R&M cast's misadventures and meddling affecting the Louds and TLH's cast's mentality and/or character growth;
*** The biggest example being The Casagrandes; [[spoiler: Because the Galactic Federation annihilated Great Lakes City, The Casagrandes are forced to move to Royal Woods to live alongside the Louds, therefore, the events of the spin-off show are all rendered moot, with only a handful of its episodes becoming integrated in the story. It is unknown whether characters like Becky will appear]].
*** [[spoiler: Because of the events of "Lynner Takes The Stone", followed by the Infinity Balls saga, The divisive episode "No Such Luck" becomes loosely adapted into a two-part dark epic story climax featuring a dramatic stand off between Lincoln, Rick, and Lynn. It ends with Lynn's redemption and eventually quitting sports. Because of this, any and all episodes not yet adapted featuring Lynn as her usual self, such as "Cheer Pressure" and "Lynn and Order" will be averted or altered in some way, the latter because of her fallout with Margo.]]

* AdaptationalProtagonist: Unlike ''The Loud House'', the Loud siblings aren't as much explored upon as characters or as prominent as Rick, who is practically the ''de facto'' protagonist and star of the story, whose backstory and HiddenDepths get explored as part of his character progression. While they do play main roles in his adventures, at best the siblings play the SupportingProtagonist role as Morty and Summer did in ''Rick and Morty''.

** A crossover between two demographically dissonant cartoons gives this. The general cast of ''Rick and Morty'' and ''The Loud House often make a stark contrast with each other in the story; while ''The Loud House'' side of characters (like Clyde, Sid, Principal Ramirez, Mayor Davis or Sergio) remain squeaky-clean, saccharine, and almost don't utter mature dialogue, the ''Rick and Morty'' side of characters (like Zeep, Galactic Federation members, Tammy, or the President) still retain their typical characteristics, like their shameless obscenities, their tendency for profanity and mature vocabulary, and violent, obscene acts.

* DemographicDissonantCrossover: The story is a crossover between ''Rick and Morty'', an adult cartoon, and ''The Loud House'', a children's cartoon.
* DemotedToExtra: A number of the side characters that have prominent roles in ''The Loud House'' make very few, if at all, appearances here as a result of the Loud siblings getting more involved with Rick's adventures, and if they do, they serve no purpose in the overarching story. Some are outright ommitted.
** Lincoln's friends besides Clyde, such as Liam, Zach, and Rusty, don't appear as often as they are in canon because Lincoln spends most of his time travelling with Rick than hanging out with them. They even [[LampshadeHanging lampshade]] it in "Racing Hearts".
** Luna's band is yet to appear in a prominent role, if at all.
** As a result of the Galactic Federation [[spoiler: demolishing Great Lakes City, many of Ronnie Anne's friends from her spin-off series besides Sid Chang were killed. They only have one appearance]].

** Speaking of Clyde, he doesn't play much of a role in the story apart from an adventure with the Vindicators, as Lincoln spends more time with Rick.
* TheDeterminator: Once set on a task, all Mr. Meeseeks will fulfil it no matter what. One Mr. Meeseek is willing to force Leni's driving instructor at gunpoint to rerun the driving test in order to help Leni get her driving license.

* BloodierAndGorier: on ''The Loud House'' side, because the violence and grounded physics of ''Rick and Morty'' become integrated im it, which result in more blood spilled beyond Clyde's nosebleeds. This also negates the ToonPhysics of former, as the fic doesn't shy away from characters (usually bystanders or villains) getting mutilated or bloodied by Rick's antics.

** A typical deconstruction retained from ''Rick and Morty'' is the traumatic effects that come with Rick's insane and dangerous adventures, which are now being hammered on ''The Loud House'' cast, which are mostly composed of prepubescent children, which causes these adventures to be HarmfulToMinors.

* {{Deconstruction}}: Almost all of the deconstructed elements in ''Rick and Morty'' is brought all the way in this crossover, such as Rick's nihilistic attitude being the cause of ruination for so many people, including his family. Unfortunately, this brutal deconstruction infests the sunny, wacky cast of ''The Loud House'' as well as a result of crossing over two dissonant cartoons.
** First off, while the Loud sisters initially act as they are in canon, later on, their own unique and clashing personalities and fatal flaws ultimately cause them more harm than good, forcing them to undergo CharacterDevelopment to rein in their flaws. Unlike the original series, these changes stick due to the story's serial nature.
** Lincoln's self-esteem issues is much more prominent here than ''The Loud House''. His desire for helping others stems from a desperate bid for validation. The fact that his sisters, and especially Rick, are more successful than him nails the point.
** Since they appear in this story, Lincoln's love for superheroes also get soured as he sees the morally unsound nature of real-life superheroes like the Vindicators.
** Lynn's desire to NeverBeHurtAgain and her BigSisterBully act becomes her worst mistake, which costs her [[spoiler: an eye]], her relationship with Rick, Lincoln, and ultimately [[spoiler: her family]].

* SubvertedKidsShow: Naturally. Crossing over a wacky, saccharine cartoon with an ultra-violent, nihilistic adult cartoon gives this result. Even when in the presence of characters completely dissonant from their series, the ''Rick and Morty'' side of characters still go all out about committing acts of violence, dying a CruelAndUnusualDeath, and especially profanity, usually from Rick, who is the Loud kids'grandfather by the way. Heck, not even ''Loud House'' characters are excempt from committing such acts. Some may even utter obscenities, usually limited to "God", "damn", and "hell".

** As a result, the ''Loud House'' episode "Potty Mouth" may be AdaptedOut because Rick being the grandfather of the Louds and his shameless to-and-fro swearing being too commonplace may cause the episode to make no sense for it to be adapted. It doesn't help that the Loud characters even utter some uncensored profanity as well.

* BlackComedy: In spades because it's a crossover between the saccharine ''Loud House''and the nihilistic ''Rick and Morty''. However, most of the latter's humor dominates the story as a result of Rick's mere presence, supplanting the childish, colorful humor of the former.
