* CaughtWithYourPantsDown: Four Loud girls are seen/caught in the act at one point or another. It's almost the closest thing the fic has to a recurring joke. [[{{Squick}} ALMOST.]]

The sequel begins after the first story, with another time skip of about a year and half. It focuses more on mystery, with Lincoln's sisters drastically changing into some sort of cult-like group, and Lincoln having to discover the circumstances of what has happened during his time away from everyone.

Added DiffLines:

* HarsherInHindsight: Why does Leni have the strict persona of being the family's "mother" without Rita around? [[spoiler:Because her own baby died, and she had to keep it all covered up. Especially dark if Lisa [[MoralEventHorizon MADE]] her take on the role.]]


Added DiffLines:

** [[spoiler: While she isn't an example of the actual trope, Lenore Loud could be a reference to The Lost Lenore. She wasn't a love interest, but she died before the story and the implications of her death can be seen when reading chapters before her discovery in hindsight.]]

!!These fanfics include examples of:

[[foldercontrol]]

[[folder:The Prodigal Lincoln]]
* ADateWithRosiePalms: Four Loud girls are seen/caught in the act at one point or another. It's almost the closest thing the fic has to a recurring joke. [[{{Squick}} ALMOST.]]
* AttemptedRape: Lori, while drunk, gets way too flirtatious and touchy with boys, to the point where Lynn and Leni consider stopping her from forcing herself on somebody to be a common problem. Lincoln himself becomes a target, and Lori has even gone after [[{{Tomboy}} Lynn]] one on occasion.
* BiTheWay: After Lincoln's arrest, Lucy and Ronnie Anne began a relationship, and Ronnie Anne hopes to warm Lincoln up to the idea of polyamory.
* BreakTheCutie: Pretty much the entire Loud Family is subjected to this, but some have it particularly bad.
** Lincoln himself is horrified when he comes home and discovers how badly his family has gone downhill in his absence. [[spoiler:Especially when he decides that they are beyond his help and has to leave them again.]]
** Luan developed many sexual mental disorders, and has to keep herself on strict medication to keep her urges down and stop herself from becoming a sex-crazed maniac.
** Lola began having severe mood swings, desperately trying to get attention from her family by any means. Unfortunately, the one sister who pays attention to her is an angry and sexually confused Lana, who ends up [[MadeASlave taking advantage of the situation in a fit of rage.]]
** [[spoiler: Luna, Lynn, and Lori developed strong sexual obsessions with Lincoln, to the point where Luna and Lynn were both caught "[[ADatewithRosiePalms in the act]]" in Lincoln's bedroom at one point, and they all fight over him.]]
* DisappearedDad: The Loud parents divorced shortly after Lincoln was arrested. Lynn Sr. ran off with Lily, and rarely talks to the other kids, and never visits.
* DownerEnding: [[spoiler:Lincoln tries his best to help his sisters, and even gets some of them on the road to recovery. But unfortunately, his help isn't enough. He has to leave so he can live his own life and protect the one sibling who ISN'T disturbed, and the other girls fall back into their old habits. [[SequelHook And then Lisa]] [[OhCrap steps in to help instead...]]]]
* {{Hallucinations}}: Lori begins hearing her reflection talking to her, criticizing her for her actions and telling her she's a terrible sister.
* HappinessInSlavery: Lola is happy to serve Lana after realizing she'll always have someone paying attention to her. To the point that she becomes depressed when Lana comes to her senses and tries to end the whole fiasco.
* HeroicBSOD: Rita experiences one after learning just how screwed up her daughers have become, and has to be admitted to a mental hospital.
* {{Gayngst}}: Lana, after being bullied at school for her tomboy nature, begins to worry that she may actually be a lesbian. [[BerserkButton Don't ever tell her that she is, though.]]
* GreaterScopeVillain: If it wasn't for [[spoiler:Clyde]], most of Lincoln and his family's problems wouldn't have happened, or at least would have been less severe.
* MeaningfulName: The title of the story is similar to ''The Prodigal Son'', a parable told by [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/UsefulNotes/Jesus Jesus]] in the Bible, of a son who selfishly leaves his family and squanders his fortune, only to return home in shame. Lisa lampshades this in-universe, comparing Lincoln's mistakes to the son's in the tale.
* NearRapeExperience: Happens to two of the Loud girls in the story. Poor Lincoln, their own brother, is the intended victim in both cases while he sleeps.
* ResolvedNoodleIncident: Throughout most of the story, it is never revealed what Lincoln did that lead to a two-year juvenile sentence. But in the second to last chapter, it was revealed that [[spoiler:Lincoln and Clyde were selling drugs in a get-rich-quick scheme. Clyde got way too into it, and attacked Lincoln when he said he wanted out. Lincoln ultimately had to kill him in self-defense.]]
* SanitySlippage: [[spoiler:Lynn, at first, appears to be the most normal of the Loud girls when Lincoln returns, aside from one fight... However, she's slowly lost her grip since Lincoln left, becoming obsessed with him and making violent, even suicidal threats in his name. Then there's the [[{{Squick}} shower scene with Lori...]]]]
* SlaveCollar: Lola wears a dog collar given to her by Lana, signifying their sick new relationship.
* TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior: Most seven year olds don't turn their mentally unstable twin sisters into slaves that get treated like abused housewives. And most seven year olds don't happily and willingly allow that to happen to them. But Lana and Lola, unfortunately, aren't normal seven year olds.
* WhatTheHellHero: Lincoln, getting pushed to his limits by seeing what his sisters have become, eventually explodes, telling all of his sisters off for letting things escalate so far. Especially [[spoiler: Lynn.]]
* [[spoiler:{{Yandere}}: Lynn. Romantically and sexually obsessed with her brother? Hearing voices telling her to kill for him, or even commit a murder/suicide with him? Attacking Ronnie Anne not once, but twice, and stabbing her with a switchblade? Holy crap.]]
[[/folder]]
[[folder:The Prodigal Lincoln: Stigmata]]
* BadassAdorable: [[spoiler: Lily. Even without holding Lincoln's gun, the four year old manages to make her older sisters afraid to mess with her.]]
* BigBrotherInstinct: While Lincoln is known to have this for all his sisters, in this story it is focused primarily on Lily. Protecting her remains his primary goal.
** [[spoiler:[[InvertedTrope Inverted]] with Lily as well, unknown to Lincoln. She stays up all night, every night, with a GUN, making sure NOBODY messes with her beloved Lincy.]]
* {{Brainwashed}}: [[spoiler: Most of Lincoln's sisters are under the effects of "the treatment", explaining their odd, cult-like behavior.]]
** [[spoiler:PretendToBeBrainwashed: Leni has either broken free from the treatment, or was never under it's power in the first place. She keeps up her act as the figurehead leader of the family, but is actually on Lincoln's side and tries to help him find the truth.]]
* BigBad: Lisa. As shown in the ending of the first story, she is behind the changes and secrets in the Loud House since Lincoln was gone.
* CreepyTwins: Lola and Lana become this during Lincoln's absense. They develop a habit of speaking in unison, talking and singing in French, and [[FinishingEachOthersSentences finishing the other's sentences]].
* EnemyMine: Lynn and Ronnie Anne agree to put their mutual hatred aside to help Lincoln, whom they both care about, although Ronnie Anne in particular is still distrustful.
* GratuitousFrench: Lincoln's sisters, while he was away, apparently learned French and inject it into their everyday speech. To Lincoln and Lily, it just makes everything creepier, especially when it's seemingly used to keep them from understanding something...
* {{Hallucinations}}: Lincoln is subjected to them if he doesn't take his meds. Mirror Lori also makes a comeback.
* MeaningfulName: The word "Stigmata" is often used to describe the wounds Jesus had on his hands and feet due to his crucifixion, and the sensation has been believed to occur to those chosen for a heavenly purpose. [[spoiler:It reflects how Lisa has seemingly brainwashed Lincoln's sisters to worship him as "The Son".]]
* NearRapeExperience: Luna, experiencing her old urges, attempts to pleasure Lincoln against his will in the car. She only stops when Lincoln states that she's acting no better than [[{{Yandere}} Lynn used to.]]
* {{Patricide}}: It's implied, both in this story and the end of the first one, that Lynn Sr.'s death was planned a year and a half in advance by Lisa.
* PrecisionFStrike: [[spoiler: Lily, the sweet, adorable, innocent little girl who's meanest statement beforehand was calling someone scary... promptly tells Lynn to "get fucked" when they're alone together.]]
* WiseBeyondTheirYears: Lily is a perfectly innocent, absolutely adorable little girl who loves nothing more than to play with her older brother "Lincy." [[spoiler:But she's also more aware of her surroundings than she lets on, knows all about the events of the first story, and displays as much or even more [[GenreSavvy Genre Savviness]] than Lincoln himself.]]
