That Engineer

  • Recommended by rufusluciusivan
  • Comments: He mostlynote  writes fanfics that aim to deconstruct some aspects of the show, especially in regards of Lincoln's Butt-Monkey status. His stories are basically alternative takes on the outcome of some episodes, with a more realistic and darker approach. The stories are well-written and detailed, especially when showing the emotions of the characters.

MrTyeDye

  • Recommended by Second_Banana, Unicorndance
  • Comments: His stories are packed to the brim with imagery that takes readers on a journey. He's able to create highly engrossing fanfics that may be concise but are highly effective at appealing to the senses.
  • Notes: Author of Mall Rats, Birthday Breakfast, and The Connie-Ronnie Switcheroo, among other stories.

Weavillain

  • Recommended by TyeDyeWildebeest
  • Comments: A versatile author, responsible for writing some of the cutest WAFF-fics and some of the most heartwrenching dark fics the fandom has to offer. He mostly writes one-shots, but is also writing several longer stories. He's especially good at writing the Louds' dialogue, staying true to the spirit of their original selves while imbuing them with more depth than they show in canon.
  • Notes: Author of PokéLoud Journeys, and Put a Bid on It, among other stories.

Trillhouse (FanFiction.Net profile, Pastebin)

  • Recommended by BarackLesnar

Characterizations are on point and true to their established personalities while being significantly more grounded.
  • Notes: Author of Darkness Falls on the House of Loud, What She'd Been Missing and My Angel, My Demon, among other stories.

Flagg1991

  • Recommended by Prometheus117
  • Comments: A very varied writer whose content can run the gauntlet from dark to light in tone, serious to comedic in mood, and family-friendly wholesome romance to graphic NSFW of the violent and/or sexual variety. Many likely know him best as one of the unofficial "kings" of Loudcest. Regardless, there's something for everyone.
  • Notes: Author of Reeling in the Years, Thicker than Blood, various Loudcest stories, and other miscellaneous Loud House stories.

Aberrant Script

  • Recommended by Prometheus117
  • Comments: The self-proclaimed "Loudcest King" of the fandom, who has likely written more on the subject than any other, ranging from NSFW to surprisingly wholesome romance affairs as well as one-shots to multi-chapter stories. Certainly not a writer for everyone, but capable of writing the niche well if given the chance.

APlantThatLovesWine.

  • Recommended by One Of The Homies
  • Languages: English
  • Comments: She is a new author on the FF scene, her first story being Split Personalities, while she is new to writing, her speed is nothing to be laughed at. She manages to evolve the characters while putting her own twists on them throughout the settings she utilizes, she also can range the gauntlet from the darkest of topics to the lightest of them while giving them the equal respect they deserve.

    General Fics 
Stories focused on the family and the friendly relationships of the cast. Plot-focused stories or light day-in-the-life stories. Pretty much anything that isn't focused on romance.

The Loud Court by TakeBackTheFalls

  • Recommended by: Hyphae
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Instead of a 'Sister Fight Protocol,' the Louds create a homemade court case to resolve their arguments. So when Lori and Leni begin to fight, the Louds put their trial to the test.
  • Comments: A great humorous take on the episode.

Lincoln Loud's Loud House Survival Guide by l OmegaInfinity l

  • Recommended by N8han11
  • Status: Dormant
  • Synopsis: After an accident, Lincoln is left in a coma. With Lincoln in the hospital, and the Loud House decending from organized chaos to just chaos, Lori takes it upon herself to fill in Lincoln's place as peacekeeper until her little brother wakes up. Maybe the book she found in Lincoln's room will help her figure it out... and maybe teach her a thing or two about her little brother.
  • Comments: The fanfic deals with Lincoln's sisters having to pick up the pieces after he ends up in a coma, managing to be somewhat realistic while still keeping everyone in character.

A Brother's Debt by The Loud Author.

  • Recommended by TheJayman49
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: After Lincoln begins to feel like a burden and a failure to his family he wants to try and surprise them with presents but finds himself in debt and working for a shady business practice, doing various tasks. Will he tell his family? Will he be able to shake his depression? Will he be able to tolerate the work? If not, can he keep it secret?
  • Comments: A darker take on The Loud House where Lincoln (who is still a kid in this story, albeit a year older) is essentially forcing himself to work off a dept to the mafia just so he could make his family happy. It also explores themes of fear and insanity. Trust me, it's Better Than It Sounds.

Requiem for a Loud by Underrated Hero.

  • Recommended by BoukenDutch
  • Status: Finished
  • Language: English, Spanish and Korean
  • Synopsis: Lincoln, the only boy in the Loud family, is diagnosed with brain tumors and told he will have only 2 to 3 weeks left to live. How will an eleven years old (sic) boy react when he finds out he'll die soon? And his sisters?
  • Comments: The English version contains some grammar errors due to English not being the writer's native tongue, but otherwise it's a well written and very sad story about Lincoln and his family dealing with his oncoming death.

  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Sam Sharp discovers she's a lesbian when she falls for a girl in the eighth grade. Unfortunately the confession doesn't go as planned, and Sam's entire world soon gets completely turned upside down.
  • Comments: While the fanfic has it's share of dark moments, due to plenty of Gayngst and Kids Are Cruel, there are some genuinely touching moments with Sam and Simon, and later on the Louds.

A Hero's Welcome by Nostalgiah.

  • Recommended by Wiseoung
  • Status: Dead; last update October 30th, 2019
  • Synopsis: Lincoln was always into heroes as a kid so why not become one in real life. So Lincoln joins the Army. But when he comes back, he'll soon have to face his inner demons and finally come to terms with his forbidden desires that he desperately tried to ignore.

Platonic by Hatoralo & Mama_Aniki

  • Recommended by Segundo Vargas
  • Status: Dormant; last updated July 2018
  • Synopsis: As the middle child of a rather huge family, it should be no surprise that Lincoln wishes for a bit more attention, One day, said wish is granted. At first, Lincoln enjoys the extra attention and care from his sisters, but soon enough, he discovers of the old saying, "Be careful what you wish for."
  • Comment: Filled with humor, sadness, mystery, suspense, and weirdness. If you want to read a Loudcest story with a new spin on it, then my friend, this is the story for you.

Our Brother's A WereWolf! by ed edd n eddy IN MINECRAFT

  • Recommended by TheJayman49
  • Status: Completed
  • Synopsis: After Lincoln gets attacked by a wolf on a camping trip, his sisters soon notice a changing personality happening with Lincoln, he's more athletic, he growls at them, and mysteriously disappears on the nights of the full moon. While at the same time mysterious and horrible murders begin to surface.
  • Comments: The pacing's a bit fast and has quite a lot of grammar errors, but the concept of Lincoln turning into a werewolf and the focus on the Loud sisters trying to figure out how to stop Lincoln's condition more than make up for it.

Burning Secret by Samtastic 3.0

  • Recommended by Androne-5
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: One seemingly normal day, Lincoln accidentally burns his school to the ground. Though he isn't caught and no one is hurt, Lincoln can't help but feel horribly guilty. In the following days, he becomes overwhelmed with guilt, especially since everyone apparently believes the fire to be arson. Things get even worse when Lincoln discovers someone knows it was him.
  • Comments: From characters being in-character, to a legitimately enthralling mystery regarding an unknown man, this is a pretty good read for those who like a good mystery story, and enjoy seeing characters in situations they probably wouldn't be in canon.

Babysitter from Heaven by Weavillain

  • Recommended by Decaf Grub 4739
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Lori's great day takes a turn for the worse when she finds out that in her absence, her parents hired someone to watch over her younger siblings. That "someone" just so happens to be the person that she despises the most from school, Carol Pingrey.

Girls Among Sheep by Gumball2

  • Recommended by BobSaget9
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Lynn was just getting over her loss at the game, but then guilt peeked its way out. Now she will see how her big lie has affected her brother. Set during "No Such Luck".
  • Comments: That's right. During "No Such Luck". Lynn has her Jerkass Realization right before the decision is made to kick Lincoln out of the house, and the moment when she confronts Lincoln and her parents on what she did actually works. One of the few "No Such Luck" response fics that doesn't paint the rest of the family as monsters or has Lincoln suffering some additional Angst.

Lori's Birthday by Gumball2.

  • Recommended by fruitstripegum
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Lori turns eighteen, but birthdays have always been a complicated matter for her. Her sister Leni always acts strange on those days and she knows why. They both know why.

  • Synopsis: Lincoln Loud is a boy in a family known for their ability to fuse with each other. Only one problem: He has never fused before.

Guardian Louds by The Loud Author.

  • Recommended by Stellar Cannon
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: When monsters begin to appear in Royal Woods, and begin wreaking havoc in an attempt to steal human essence through any means necessary. Lincoln and Lisa find themselves left with the guardian project, to make sure his family would not be hurt and to protect as many as plausible in royal woods.
  • Comments: Great adventure story that takes the idea of "the Loud Family as Super Sentai" and pushes it to an amazing limit. Though, the writing is decent at best due to the rate at which the author typically posts, as well as english not being his native language.
    • It also has some great action scenes and the relationship between Lincoln and Lisa that develops throughout the story is nothing short of heartwarming. While English is not his native language, he manages to write good enough to where one can understand what he means to say.

Birthday Breakfast by MrTyeDye

  • Recommended by fruitstripegum, Unicorndance
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: It's Lola and Lana's birthday, and Lincoln is in charge of making them breakfast. How hard could it be?

Peeking Through the Fourth Wall by MrTyeDye

  • Recommended by Decaf Grub 47393, Unicorndance
  • Status: In Progress
  • Synopsis: An MST3K parody where the Loud Siblings read fanfics about themselves.
  • Comments: Everyone is in character while mocking their fanfic selves. This fic also has an NSFW spinoff titled Peeking Through the Fourth Wall: After Dark, which documents the Louds' reactions to Rule 34.

Live-to-Lynn by LoudAutomata16

  • Recommended by Metro_Fox
  • Status: Complete
A vignette of short stories about Lynn Loud and her different humorous misadventures with her friends, enemies, and siblings.
  • Comments: Every gag lands, Lynn is fleshed out as a human being aside from delivering a lot of laughs and she is experiencing character development. Excellent for anyone who loves Lynn or is sick of the Lynn from Canon and wants to see her in a more likable light.

Loud Legends by Rakanadyo

  • Recommended by Androne-5
  • Status: Dead (last updated September 2017)
  • Synopsis: In a family that has 11 kids, not a day goes by when something exciting doesn't happen. But every now and then, something major will occur, something that will have a huge impact in the lives of this unique group. These are the stories of the Loud House.
  • Comments: A surprisingly good one-shot collection dealing with some of the Loud family in relatable situations, with certain situations being things that wouldn't be seen in the show at all. A good read if you like to see the Louds in situations they're unlikely to be in canon.

My Sister Leni by Gumball 2

  • Recommended by Rakanadyo
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Leni isn't quite like her other sisters. Lori always wonders what's going through her little sister's head whenever she stares at her so intently or smile uncontrollably at the most sudden moments. Lori loves her sister, no doubt about it, but there are times where Leni can be so confusing.
  • Comments: A touching story about Leni and her siblings when they were younger (the story starting with Lynn as a baby and Lincoln not yet born). The author's take on Leni is interesting, revealing that she has autism. Definitely a must-read for Leni fans or for people who just like heartwarming stories.
  • Now has a fanfic page.

The Blooming Lily by TerraZeal

  • Recommended by Sarantha
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Leni gets pregnant at 15 from a party she went to a month before the story starts. Very much Leni/Lori sisterly bonding, as well as a good characterization of parents willing to do anything to help their child. The basis of the story is that Lily is really Leni's daughter but Rita made a plan to convince everyone Lily will be hers.
  • Comment: Very cute story, very little errors, but a little bit more tell than show in some places. The story is a good one to read because it is completed and the author will be posting a chapter a week (or several a week depending on if the story is enjoyed). The bonding between Leni and Lori is the best part of this story. It really shows how much they care for each other, as well as making it interesting by making Leni choose to be Obfuscating Stupidity because she wants others to feel better about themselves. Leni is OOC, but it's explained why and makes sense. Adorable sisterly love story.
  • Now has a fanfic page.

I Don't Need Relationships by FISHNCHIPZ

  • Recommended by: Prinnyramza
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: After finding out that Bobby is cheating on her, Lori becomes, for lack of a better word, an otaku.
  • Comment: Just a funny little story about what Lori could be if it she was single. Nice interaction with Lincoln as he basically has to deal with some of the less then ideal traits of Lori's new hobbies.

Sirens Chiptunes by Cedric 225

  • Recommended by ZeroKrispy
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: After a wild and messed up party, Lori has to endure the punishment of her parents after they find out. Her depression starts to fade away when Lincoln finds her old N64 and decides to invite her for a play
  • Comments: It might be a One-off, but its a truly charming story of Lincoln and Lori bonding over an old Nintendo Console. It might bring a tear to the eye

Leni And The Jetts by themaninthecouch

  • Recommended by nightshade1218
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Leni has an unusual part time job to make extra money for her family.
  • Comments: Leni Loud has a part-time job as an assassin. Good quality and not as dark as you'd think.

Chains Of Reality by Exotos135

  • Recommended by StellarCannon
  • Status: Original story dead; Reboot is complete.
  • Synopsis: The world we see is not the first. After Lincoln discovers this strange place, he must work to unlock the secrets hidden within.
  • Comments An interesting idea that imagines if the canon Loudverse was really a copy of the original, and the originals want to escape to the canonverse.
  • Notes: Now has a trope page

Luan's Problem by AustinDR

  • Recommended by patriciovalencia117
  • Status: Completed
  • Synopsis: Luan never considers toning down her pranks. It takes someone she cares about getting hurt because of one of her reckless schemes, so now she's faced with the reality that rather than a comedian, she is heartless.
  • Comments A very good read that adds a sad, sympathetic backstory to Luan showing how she became the comedian we all know. Also addresses the harmful real life consequences of her pranking and shows her trying to atone for her actions.
  • Note: Now has a trope page.

It's Not a Date ! by Superdimentio77

  • Recommended by Second_Banana
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: When Lincoln receives a written invitation for a friendly hangout at the arcade from Ronnie Anne, he knows he has to keep his sisters far away from it. But can Lincoln truly conquer the sisternado? What ways will he resort to make it happen? And is he right to do so?
  • Comments: An excellent story that manages to capture the family dynamic, namely of the Loud sisters working as a unit, perfectly. The personalities of all the characters are akin to that in the show, the funny bits are wacky and enjoyable, and the slices of drama are engaging. Recommended for anyone who wants to see the Loud family at its best, as well as some cute moments between Lincoln and Ronnie Anne.

Loud House: Power Gamers! by Weeb that's a Sheep.

  • Recommended by Androne-5
  • Status: Dead (last updated June 2017)
  • Synopsis: Lincoln Loud's world get turned upside down when he finds out that Videogames are more than just virtual fun! Upon discovery of a mysterious portable gaming device, Lincoln Loud becomes a Superhero! Defending his home from Viruses and Bugs alike! Clearing Stages! Defeating Bosses! All with no Cheatcodes! Loud House: Power Gamers!
  • Comments: A very interesting story that, while it's still only on it's first chapter, already does a good execution of its plot, concerning Lincoln becoming a videogame super hero who fights against bugs and viruses.

Put a Bid on It by Weavillain.

  • Recommended by rufusluciusivan
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Lincoln Loud does whatever he can to obtain a collectible on gBay but soon, he finds himself without the funds to keep up with a persistent bidder. He's so desperate for cash, he's willing to do anything that he can for some extra dough, even if it means tending to his sisters' demands like some kind of butler.
  • Comments: A well-written and rather long one-shot that feels like an episode of the show. The fanfic avoids giving the Ron the Death Eater treatment to Lincoln's sisters and keep them in-character as the story (and the conflict with Lincoln) gradually goes along. The interactions in particular are in-character and there are a few funny moments and lines. The resolution also looks like something that could appear in an actual episode. All in all, a good story featuring the birth and resolution of a conflict between Lincoln and his sisters.

On Our Backs by MrTyeDye.

  • Recommended by Rakanadyo
  • Status: One-Shot.
  • Synopsis: A week has passed since the Loud siblings' roommate-swapping experiment, but Lincoln is still left with some lingering doubts about the outcome.
  • Comments: An excellent one-shot following up on the events of Room with a Feud, with one of Lincoln's sisters helping him with something that's been bothering him. Very heartwarming.

Pity Party by SoI'llKillYou

  • Recommended by rushguy1
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Lincoln chaperones Lucy on her way to an emo party. They get together to vent their frustrations, share their problems. Lucy might fit in amongst these kids, but she may find that she's not the only one with feelings to get off their chest.

Sleeping Woes by Fallen Pens

  • Recommended by nightshade1218
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Lincoln finds himself suffering from insomnia for an unexplained reason, now his sisters have to try and find a way to help him get to sleep, so he'll be ready for one of his more important tests of the school year. What does he act like when tired? Will they be able to help?
  • Comments: Nice slice-of-life/drama-lite one-shot that shows a good relationship between Lincoln and his sisters.

Nicely Done by Weavillain

  • Recommended by BoukenDutch, Unicorndance
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: When Lynn believes that Lincoln thinks of her, Lori, Luan, Lola, and Lisa as his "mean sisters", she conspires with the other four about what they should do about her discovery.
  • Comments: Although the author claims he didn't intent it as such, it's a nice deconstruction of one of the oldest and, arguably, most tiresome clichés in the Loud House fandom; the nice sisters vs mean sisters. Well written and with a heartwarming ending.
  • Note: Now has a page.

Identity Crisis by UnderratedHero

  • Recommended by nightshade1218
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: It's Halloween, and Leni is absolutely excited about this cool high-school party Lori is taking her to. She just finished making her own very special dress for the occasion, but after she learns Lincoln has been going through some issues, she is faced with a choice.
  • Comments: Just a nice, short cute one-shot involving Lincoln and Leni. Not much else to say except go read it.

Popcorn Flick by Weavillain

  • Recommended by nightshade1218
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: A night of bonding between brother and sister turns into a night of panic, horror, and uncertainty. A tradition of fun and games develops into a frantic situation that demands immediate intervention. In the end, it is up to Lynn to save her little brother, Lincoln, from death. Can she rise to the occasion or will death snatch the Loud family's only son away?
  • Comments: Innocent fic takes a dark turn, but turns into a feelgood story. Especially refreshing if you're tired of overly angsty fics painting the Loud sisters, Lynn in particular, as heartless bitches who don't care about Lincoln.

In The Dark by spotty-bee

  • Recommended by nightshade1218
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Halloween is a fun time of year for kids of all ages, unless your Lori, who has to escort her siblings around for the night. However Halloween is a night full of surprises, and not all of them good...

A Family Affair by mandaree1

  • Recommended by nightshade1218
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Seeing how Mr. and Mrs. Loud are far too used to the sound of a baby monitor, they let Lisa be the one to wake them up if Lily's having a bad night. Of course, she typically isn't the type to go to them, either, seeing how this is more of a sibling affair.
  • Comments: Fun and realistic sibling interaction. A slice-of-life look at late nights in the Loud House.

What She'd Been Missing by Trillhouse

  • Recommended by BarackLesnar
  • Status: Ongoing
  • Synopsis: Loan wasn't sure exactly what drove her to seek out her uncle. She needed to get away, yes... but she'd only met the man twice before. And yet, for reasons she couldn't understand... she trusted him. And for reasons HE couldn't understand, he felt an instant bond with the girl. Neither could have imagined the horrible truth that had remained buried for twenty-one years.
  • Comments: A fresh take on the "sin kids/lovechildren/abominations" that subverts the usual harem plot. In this story, Loan is the only sin kid, and in fact neither she or Lincoln are initially aware of their relation. Contains dark themes such as angst, depression, and mental illness but author promises it will ultimately be an uplifting story.

The Devices and Machinations of Lisa Loud by Sesquipedalian Numeral

  • Recommended by Decaf Grub 47393

  • Synopsis: Lisa Loud is a child prodigy with the ability to make almost anything she desires for whatever purpose. This series records her and her family's adventures through the various tools and devices Lisa makes.
  • Comments: It is rare to see Lisa care about her family in fanfics. This one shows Lisa as making ground-breaking inventions to help her siblings.
  • Note: Now has a page.

Along the way, Lincoln learns more about his sporty sister and why she acts the way she does.
  • Comments: This fic was a blast to read. Along with the plot of having to save Luna and Royal Woods, Lincoln and Lynn's bonding really helps make the story flow and it feels like a movie. I can not recommend this enough.

Caught by Zoinks81

  • Recommended by PDL
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: In a house of 13 people, it was bound to happen. This is a short story dealing with funny outcome of Lincoln Loud, as one of his sisters catches him "handling his business" Note: There are no graphic sex scenes, and this is not an incest story. Just a funny tale about a kid getting busted.
  • Comments: Cringe Comedy at its finest, this fic explores the very "touchy" subjects of sexuality ( specifically, masturbation) and each of the Loud sisters' reaction to it. It also has a completed sequel fic and one more in the works.

I-Idiot by Frost115

  • Recommended by PDL
  • Status: Dead; last updated July 2019
  • Synopsis: A Loud House universe where everything is mostly the same, except that Ronnie Anne is 100% more Tsundere. That wouldn't be much of a problem, if she didn't have her eyes set on Lincoln.
  • Comments: A series of one-shots that re-imagines Ronnie Anne as the classic anime stereotype, the Tsundere. Poor Lincoln.

  • Synopsis: Lynn has made many mistakes, more than she'd ever dare to admit. And certain ones are looming over her until one day, when it all leads to yet another stupid mistake that hits right to the core of who she is.
  • Comments: An interesting look at Lynn Loud that examines her relationships with other people and how she functions as a character. It gets fairly dark though as there is language, violence and sexual references.

No Such Luck: Deleted Scenes by Twisteddarkness225

  • Recommended by Unicorndance
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: What happened between the scenes of the infamous "No Such Luck" episode and after the events of the episode. According to this fic, the only one who really thought Lincoln was bad luck was Lynn and the others were simply acting like he was to teach him a lesson, but it wasn't mean-spirited and they were actually very concerned about the whole thing. At the end, everything is fine.
  • Comments: This is a Fix Fic for "No Such Luck", but it doesn't have anyone act mean or Out of Character. And Lincoln survives, he doesn't run away, and he's psychologically stable. There's also a happy medium with Lynn since she gets karma (namely being stung by a jellyfish) yet nothing too bad happens to her and she's not made into a Straw Man antagonist.

Inside Loud by 65rogeryork

  • Recommended by Unicorndance
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Each of the Loud siblings have unique personalities, but what would happen if those personalities are switched? Could you imagine Lola being Lynn? Lucy being Leni? The ol' switcheroo has taken place in the Loud House, and now the siblings have to figure out how to fix it. Can they do it? Or will they be stuck Inside Out?
  • Comments: It's the best of all worlds. The Loud kids swap bodies because of something Lisa invented but they all go back to normal by the end of the fanfic. A bit of romance, but I put it in the gen section because it's only a bit and it's the canon pairings Lori/Bobby and Luna/Sam. There's a few emotional moments, but no one dies or anything like that.

Fool Me Thrice by Samtastic 3.0

  • Recommended by ladyofthelibrary
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Luan always enjoys April Fool's Day at her family's expense. Maybe a touch of karma will help with that. Maybe love will, too.
  • Comments: A post-"Fool Me Twice" fic that manages to give Luan an epiphany about her behavior without having a family member end up as Aesop Collateral Damage or having them purposefully let Laser-Guided Karma fall on her shoulders (in fact, the worst that the family does is Lincoln tricked her into thinking her possessions were on a leaving moving van, which is Restrained Revenge in the case of Luan's antics). Some uncomfortable subject matter does come up but ultimately everyone has a happy ending.

With a prize of one hundred thousand dollars, the citizens of Royal Woods, including the Loud family, are all competing fiercely to achieve victory.

  • Comments: The tone and humour of the story feel ripped straight out of the show itself, with lots of twists, turns, and action present throughout. The story takes place after the events of season 5, and builds on what has been established in the show up until that point. Definitely worth a read.

  • Synopsis: Lincoln feels a little unwanted in the Loud house, and feels like he is more like a parasite than a member of the family. Luna notices this and tries to make him feel better and start to spend time together. The other sisters will also have their part, but I think Lincoln and Luna's relationship is the closest out of the Loud family.

The Live House by themaninthecouch.

  • Recommended by Whipsmart
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: The Loud siblings aren't siblings. They are actors on a sitcom called The Loud House. This is 'Lincoln's interactions with his co-stars, and his budding romance with the actress who plays his sister, Lynn.
  • Pairing(s): Lincoln/Lynn. One sided Lincoln/Lucy.
  • Comments: A well-written one-shot, with a detailed narration, that will alternately be heartwarming and sad. The romance between Lincoln and Lynn is well-written and cute, although some may feel that they are a little too mature for their age. It's also funny to see how different the actors are from the characters they play in the Show Within a Show.

The Loud House: Future Love Run Amok! by TotCall720

  • Recommended by Prometheus117
  • Status: Ongoing
  • Synopsis: Three years into the future and things are going to be shaken up, big time. New forbidden relationships emerge as Lincoln struggles to find out is going on with the nature of the older Loud sisters still at home, and with himself. The ball gets rolling with Luna, and spirals from here. Potential Harem in the future.
  • Pairing(s): Lincoln/Luna, with heavy hints towards Lincoln/Luan, Lincoln/Lynn, and Lincoln/Leni in the future (it is a potential Harem in the works).
  • Tags: Romance, Dramedy, Politician-bashing/joking
  • Comments: As the summary above suggests, this story takes place after a Time Skip of about three years, with Lincoln now 14 and dealing with the full onset of puberty alongside his older siblings, with Clyde having moved away and Ronnie Anne and Lincoln having achieved a mutual breakup over that time. Different from many Loudcest ships in that the story is a much more realistic take on the topic, with Lincoln, Luna, Luan, Lynn, and Leni all suffering a massive amount of angst at trying to come to terms with their own forbidden feelings, yet still delivering on the comedy of the series, and for every bit of angst there's a bit of W.A.F.F. to balance it out. Be forewarned for the politically-sensitive, there's quite a bit of politic-smashing and jokes, both for Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton (the fic's year setting is 2019), but not enough to detract from the quality if you don't care for it (in fact, there are several good jokes) and it pays off in Chapter 11.

Secret Santa by UnderratedHero

  • Synopsis: Lincoln and his sisters play the Secret Santa every Christmas Eve. This year, with the help of his not-quite-girlfriend Ronnie Anne, he has everything ready to get the perfect gift for whoever he has to. But when his recklessness threatens to ruin his whole plan, Lincoln will learn that there's no better Christmas present being with the ones you love.
  • Pairing: Lincoln/Ronnie Anne.
  • Comments: The author of Requiem for a Loud has mercy on our feelings and gives us this cute and simple story about Lincoln celebrating Christmas with his family. Available in both Spanish and English, the story is well-written and well-paced. It also features some cute moments between Lincoln and Ronnie Anne, but the romance between the two eleven-years old remain believable. All in all, a story to read if you want your heart to feel warm, wether it's the time around Christmas or not.

  • Pairing: Lincoln/Luna.
  • Comments: A first story for the author, but one well worth the read. Everyone, from the Loud siblings to characters like Clyde and Ronnie Anne feel in-character to the show and show many of their positive qualities to offset their negative ones. Lincoln, in particular, is a great example, doing his best to step up to the challenges his actions have caused and accept the consequences including breaking up with Ronnie Anne when he learns from Luna about her pregnancy. Luna also carries quite a bit of guilt for her part and does her best to help the transition.

  • Comments: An extremely well-written friendship to romance story featuring the Royal Woods High School's Theatre Club, focusing primarily on the secondary characters of Ruby and Shannon and showing great insight about their cultural backgrounds and differences. Tries its best to stay compliant with canon, albeit it takes a few liberties here and there for the sake of the story, but nothing too extreme.
  • Notes: Also has two sequels from Albertson, "Card Tricks" and "Slumber Party", which are on the steamier side.

  • Comments: This story is a perfect blend of all things Pokémon. You'll get the best of the anime, the inspiration/design of Fire Red and Leaf Green, the feel of Adventures and The Electric Tale of Pikachu. Characterization of all the character are done excellently and the references hidden within will have you in constant delight. The omakes are hilarious as well.

LOUDERTALE by Superdimentio77

But when said resort is standing next to a certain mountain, their trek up the mountain might extend the Loud siblings' visit by a little bit. What friendship and trials await them? Look out Underground, here come the Louds.
  • Comments: A highly enjoyable fic, that subverts the typical trend of Undertale fics by having just copy-pasted dialogue from the game and gives each and every single Loud sibling a role to play and their arc, even with minor characters like Ice Cap and Napstablook. The author packs detail into each encounter instead of just dryly stating the encounter, and with the Louds' personalities, this is a big plus. Chapters are long, but they're a necessity to get said detail and character moments in the story. Highly recommended.

  • Comments: As expected of Tv Fan 2244, this AU sees the events and lore of the Ben 10 universe seamless integrated with the Loud House characters. Amazing writing, despite the events being parallels to the original series’ episodes, it truly stands out with its portrayal of Lincoln Loud, as the wielder of the Omnitrix instead of Ben, taking on a much more mature, smart and well-thought approach on the Omnitrix. Heartwarming, Funny, and Action-Packed Ben-10 style. A must-read.

  • Comment: Along with having a different starting ten aliens, this fic combines episodes from both Ben 10, Loud House, and has original episodes in it. Extremely touching, suspenseful, and epic with plenty of humor, and tons of references from movies, games, comics, and shows, both TV and web. His favorite being Team Four Star.

A series of misadventures that test the limits of how much craziness one white haired kid named Lincoln Loud can take before snapping after being taken in by three imps and a hellhound, all while trying to find a way home. Rated M for mature themes such as crude language, intense violence, etc.
  • comments: I know this sounds like kind of a weird crossover but it actually works really well! Lincoln's innocence clashing with the chaotic nature of hell and I.M.P. makes for some amusing interactions and the way Millie and Moxxie dote over him is just down right adorable. Not to mention the fact that Lincoln gets some cool magic powers to boot! Trust me, this is a wonderfully chaotic fic with the slightest hint of found family that makes for an enjoyable read.

Flip the Lid by Rakanadyo

  • Recommended by Androne-5
  • Status: Complete

How different is it when Lori is the baby? Or when the twins are suddenly teenagers? But most importantly, what is the secret being kept from Lincoln about one of his siblings?
  • Comments: The plot about Lincoln's sisters being born in reverse order is nothing new, but the way it's executed in this fic is interesting, to say the least. Plus, everybody feel in-character, so there's another plus.

  • Recommended by: Monolaf 317
  • Status: Dormant; last updated April 2020
  • Synopsis: A series of oneshots involving Linka and her brothers.

  • Synopsis: The Loud Family has always consisted of 10 girls. However, when their parents decide to take in a foster child, a scared and timid boy named Lincoln and his dog Charles, the girls try to get to know him and help him deal with his past.
  • Comments: An alternate Loud House story, in which Lincoln is a neglected foster child taken in by the Louds, who try their best to help him and make him feel like part of the family. It's well-written and very heartwarming.

  • Synopsis: Sometimes life throws you into situations you don't expect. Sometimes it throws you a curveball, and sometimes you need help to catch it. But what happens when those you care for are the ones throwing? A different take on the "Lincoln is adopted" theory.
  • Comments: Yes, it's another "Lincoln is adopted" story, but this one manages to distinguish itself from other, similar stories thanks to it's feels-filled storytelling, and of course, giving Lincoln a twin sister. A good read if you're looking for something different than the norm.

  • Comments: It's basically an AU where there are OC's thrown into the mix of the Loud House series, but PerkyGoth14 never fails to disappoint with her ingenious contributions to the fan fiction universe.

What is a Person Worth? by That Engineer

  • Recommended by TheJayman49
  • Status: Ongoing
  • Synopsis:
    • What Is A Person Worth?: Nothing hurts more than feeling like an outcast in your own family. As the Louds let their silly superstitious beliefs cloud their judgment, bonds become strained to their breaking point. Can they rely on their so-called 'luck' to fix this, or will the bonds they share become severed like a failed marriage? (Complete)
    • Take It In Stride: The road to healing is never an easy one, and Lynn would be the first to tell you that the past two years have been no easy picnic. Thankfully, she still has her brother and friends to guide her out of the biggest pitfall in her life. At the same time, Lincoln has to deal with the challenges of being hours away from that which he loves most. (Ongoing)
  • Comments: What Is A Person Worth? is intended as a more realistic and (relatively speaking) lighternote  take on the infamous "No Such Luck", the story manages to convey so much of the emotion that Lincoln is feeling after his family practically kicked him out of the house and starts using him for their own personal gain. Definitely a good read if hated said episode and wanted to see Lincoln stand up for himself.

Pigskin Glory by Mitchell Movie Productions

  • Recommended by Bearquarter 2008
  • Crossover with: various other franchises
  • Status: Dormant; last updated July 2018
  • Synopsis: (80's Post-No Such Luck AU!) Expectations of classmates, family, and community members to lead a BFL team to the State Champsionship exact a toll on a star QB, who has began to question if his family even cares about him anymore after using him as a good luck charm for an entire spring and summer.
Comments: Inspired by The Friday Night Lights Series the author gives an interesting spin on No Such Luck fics, showing other problems that could get out of hand if Lincoln wasn't in the Loud House.

Losing Him by TvFan2244

  • Recommended by TerrorKing10
  • Status: Dead, last update January 28, 2019.
  • Synopsis: No Such Luck AU: The Louds thought kicking Lincoln out would be good for them all, but now they realize that actions have consequences, and this time they're the ones to blame.
  • Comments: In another darker take on the infamous "No Such Luck", the Loud family get a real wake-up call when they realize that their reckless actions may not only cost them the life of their only son/brother, but also the bond that they share with him. It's so bad that the police had to get involved.

Luna Is Strange by JamesSunderlandsPillow

  • Recommended by nightshade1218, Meowloudly 15
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Luna Loud discovers she has the power to go back in time. How will her choices affect her life and her relationships with the people she loves most, like Sam and her family? Loosely based on Life Is Strange.
  • Comments: The only recycled element from the game is the premise. This troper has never played Life Is Strange, but the concept being used in the Loud House makes for an interesting read. The relationship dynamic between Luna and Sam is fascinating and well thought out. The story reads like a superhero novel. Everyone remains in character.

Brotherhood by Witch-King Angmar

  • Recommended by Clamanath
  • Status: Dead. Officially canceled by the author.
  • Synopsis: Family and friends mean the world to Lincoln. To be there for them is what gives the little boy purpose. Then life turns its back on him, and he finds his world falling apart. But one enigmatic youth with a shadowy past and a broken soul is not about to let Lincoln fall.
  • Comments: A very great story about Lincoln finding a brother figure in an OC after not only Ronnie Anne AND Clyde move away, but when it also appears that his sisters don't care about him.

Reeling in the Years by Flagg1991

  • Recommended by Aizen10
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: The life and times of Lincoln Loud and his family from 1957 to the new millennium
  • Pairing: Lincoln/Ronnie Anne, Lori/Bobby
  • Comments: An amazing fic that shows the Loud Family (some changes were made to the family) and particularly Lincoln throughout the years. Author has an amazing eye for detail and history as he shows the family going through events from the Cuban Missile Crisis, The Vietnam War and many more, really feels like an indepth history of the US while still featuring the Loud House characters. I seriously cannot recommend this fic enough.

Thicker Than Blood by Flagg1991

  • Recommended by PDL
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: After Lincoln discovers he is adopted, he struggles to cope – with the help of his sisters. Just when he begins coming to terms, however, a second, even more shocking secret is revealed...and it might just change everything.
  • Comments: Yet another "Lincoln is adopted" story, but its good all the same. The story can be divided into two halves: The first half is him and his sisters dealing with the revelation of his adoption. The second half is about contacting his twin sister Linka. Plenty of dramatic and heart-warming moments.

The Loud Apartment by LoudAutomata16

  • Recommended by PDL
  • Status: Dead
  • Synopsis: In an AU where none of the Louds are related, Lincoln is unhappy with leaving his friends and Royal Woods behind and moving into an apartment in the city. But then, his new neighbors start to get tangled into his life...

One Girl with Ten Brothers by DiamondDollDark. Now has it's own trope page.

  • Recommended by: Tito Mosquito
  • Status: Dead
  • Synopsis: Read about Linka Loud and how she survives the chaotic yet amusing adventures of her life with ten brothers! A series of one-shots.
  • Comments: Another Rule 63 fanfic, but just as well-written. A majority of the chapters are original stories (with some taking elements from episodes), but still include genderbend versions of some of the episodes.

The Loud Awakening by Neet92

  • Recommended by: Araitsume
  • Status: Dead (last update June 30, 2019)
  • Synopsis: Kicking their only brother out of the house was a huge mistake. But in making that mistake, Lincoln and his sisters, whether they like it or not, become something more.
  • Comments: A vast divergence from the "No Such Luck" retreads with the Loud siblings (sans Lily) gaining superhuman abilities and undergoing cruel experiments under the greedy, heartless vigil of Lord Tetherby. Thank goodness the Phlebotinum Rebel trope is in play here. Warning: it's a Darker and Edgier take on the Super Fic.

Splitting Hairs by gabeclone

  • Recommended by: Prometheus117
  • Status: Dormant; last updated March 2021
  • Synopsis: What do you get when you have a ten year old who holds a total disregard for both the laws of nature and society? You get this crazy incestuous adventure, where reality itself tears at the seams and comes crashing down around the ears of one specific family. Warning: Incest, Harem... Kind of..., Minor mind manipulation.
  • Comments: Essentially what happens when an older Lisa decides to test alternate timelines alongside culturally acceptable/unacceptable romances, and concludes the best way to do this is to set up an experiment where she makes 11 branching timelines where Lincoln falls in love with Ronnie Anne or one of his ten sisters in each. A very high amount of attention to detail is put into each chapter and worth reading through to find the growing differences in each timeline.

Family Mattersby Discretion Assured

  • Recommended by Oddeyesmagagaga, Prometheus117
  • Status: Ongoing
  • Synopsis: Lyra and Lemy Loud are sent by their rockstar mother to spend a few weeks in Michigan with their Uncle Lincoln. What should be a few weeks of fun is instead turned into something far different when a terrible secret is discovered.
  • Comments: A Slice of Life fic where Lyra and Lemy spend the summer with their uncle and uncover new truths about their cousins, aunts, and their mysterious yet kind uncle. Meanwhile, Lincoln himself is trying to form a bond with his niece and nephew while juggling his time with his other nieces and preparing himself for a reveal he knows is going to rock the foundations of their world. An interesting take on a Loudcest plot that shows how such a thing can tear apart a loving family, and how they can try to pick up the pieces again.

  • Pairing(s): Lincoln/Ronnie Anne, Bobby/Lori, Luna/Sam
  • Comments: Despite the grammar being a little weak, this is a very fun story dealing with the Loud Siblings a team of superheroes. Well worth a read.

One Good Deed by MutedBager. Adopted version by SamSadi.

  • Recommended by CarlFan2020
  • Status: Original: Dead, no activity since June 05, 2020. Adopted verstion; ongoing.
  • Synopsis: After escaping from his "adoptive" father, Lincoln has been living on the streets for the last two years. He spent all that time by himself in the silence, that was until he made one decision to save a random girl in a random alley. He didn't realise how loud his life was about to get.
  • Comments: Very descriptive, brillaint vocabulary, and the flow makes you feel very relaxed. Lincoln has found himself into a web of lies trying to keep his homelessness and hidden past a secret from the girls who are starting to take a liking towards him. You can feel the angst Lincoln is going through because of that, and struggled to think of how to deal with them. An interesting take on "Lincoln is not related to the Louds" and "Homeless Lincoln". Read this if you enjoy emotionally powerful angst stories.

Baby Daddy Bobby by crazymancody895

  • Recommended by Clearwater MK 2
  • Status: Ongoing
  • Synopsis: After a visit to Bobby's parents' house, Lori becomes pregnant with Bobby's child. Can she get through these 9 months with the help of her family?
  • Pairing(s): Lori Loud/Bobby Santiago
  • Comments: Lori Loud & Bobby Santiago go through many hardships of parenthood with the help of the rest of the Loud family. The main antagonist is Alex Santiago AKA Bobby's dad, who (unlike in The Casagrandes) is very abusive to his children & his actions in this fan fiction speak for himself.

It's a Kid's World by Tales of Interest

  • Recommended by Animation Analysis 101
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: During a seemingly normal day for the Loud family, their lives are changed forever when Rita, Lynn Sr, Lori, and Leni all instantly disappear without a trace. In a world where everyone over the age of 15 has vanished, how will the remaining Loud siblings and other kids perform in the fight for survival, resources, and power in the hostile domain all the adults left behind?
  • Comments: An interesting and unique story that contains multiple sub-stories and manages to balance the focus of them all seamlessly. It has emotionally powerful material and allows time for many of the characters from the show to shine, from main to minor, while also introducing some interesting original characters. The story contains enough substance that the author has divided it into separate 'seasons'.
  • Note: Now has a tropes page.

Heroverse by UnderratedHero.

  • Recommended by Ordeaux26
  • Status: Ongoing
  • Synopsis: A Super Fic of the show with multiple stories where the Loud Siblings are orphans with superpowers who must face a variety of threats.
  • Comments: All of the fics are an incredibly fun read with engaging characters, lots of fun and action-filled moments and an interesting story. Kind of funny to think this is the same guy who wrote the notoriously depressing Requiem for a Loud.

The Adventures of Ace Savvy and the Full House Gang by [MarvelEarth19999]

  • Recommended by [JTom09]
  • Status: Ongoing
  • Synopsis: In an alternate universe where Ace Savvy, One-Eyed Jack, and the Full House Gang aren't characters in a comic book series, but real-life superheroes who's identities are donned by the Loud siblings and Clyde who fight against evildoers in Royal Woods and beyond.
  • Parring(s): Lincoln/Ronnie Anne, Lori/Bobby, Luna/Sam
  • Comments: A very well-done series that lets the characters of The Loud House and even The Casagrandes fight evildoers as superheroes and defending the innocent.

    Dark Fic 
Stories focused on making the series darker, and/or exploring the darker aspects of the series.

  • A Life In Decline by Saccharine Melody
  • Recommended by fmarcsthespot
  • Status: Ongoing
  • Synopsis: Another NSL Aftermath AU. In the aftermath of NSL, Lincoln reflects upon his relationship with his family and friends. His forgiveness is hollow and brittle, and his sisters aren't off the hook. But shocking all, there is one sister he refuses to forgive: Lucy. Thus begins a downward spiral. If you like your fics dark and mean-spirited, this one's gonna be a real SOB.
  • Comments: A really brutal and interesting NSL Aftermath AU where Lincoln refuses to forgive one of the sisters that most fans consider him closest to. The way Lincoln lords his newfound power over his family caused by their guilt over the events of 'No Such Luck' is simultaneously satisfying and terrifying. It also helps that this fanfic showcases the long-term effects of the events of 'No Such Luck' on Lincoln and his family, rather than the immediate aftermath. Give this a read.

The Prodigal Lincoln by CaptainDarko

  • Recommended by fruitstripegum
  • Status: Complete. Has an abandoned sequel.
  • Synopsis: Lincoln finally returns home after being sent away to s special boarding school to escape jail time, but quickly finds that the happy home he left behind no longer exists. As he deals with being back in normal society with a broken home life, he slowly tries to piece together the damaged Louds, but wonders if they are beyond saving...

The Broken House by Omega Ultra

  • Recommended by Androne-5
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: What comes to mind when someone describes a broken home? Welcome to the Loud House. In this world, these people have become broken shadows of their former selves... just not in the ways you'd suspect. Follow them as they try to make the best of their new lives and hopefully, find a way to make them better as well.
  • Comments: A dark alternate take on the series, where Lincoln and his sisters are, to put it lightly, not in a very good situation. A pretty good read for those who like darker takes on canon.

Velvet Fist Act I, II, III, IV, V, VI, and VII by Wrightfag

  • Recommended by Mc123
  • Status: Dead
  • Synopsis: After four years under the influence of her parents, older sister and a healthy(?) dose of medication, Leni breaks free of herself with Lincoln's unwitting help. Now, she's going to show them how much thicker blood is than anything else. After all, they're a family, right?

Brother in Shade by Immatureboys.

  • Recommended by Bearquarter 2008
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Feeling overshadowed by his sisters, Lincoln goes through depression that causes him to question his future.
  • Comments Without giving too much away, it's an interesting take on what would happen when someone suffers from underachieving depression, and it teaches you what fearing your future could do your family.

Inadequate by Yaridovich23.

  • Recommended by rufusluciusivan
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: Lincoln is falling into a deep depression because he feels worthless and that nobody cares about him. And things start to go from bad to worse when he starts to have suicidal thoughts...
  • Comments: Not as dark as other examples listed here, but this one-shot is a lot Darker and Edgier than the show nonetheless. In what appears to be a deconstruction of his Butt-Monkey status, in this story Lincoln is falling into a deep depression after he feels like a burden to his family, unable to succeed in anything contrary to his sisters. A rather accurate portrayal of what depression can do to a person, with a very realistic feel, and a well-written story. While the overall tone is very sad, it's also heartwarming to see the family's efforts to help Lincoln in the second part of the story. The ending turns out to be a Bittersweet Ending, that implies that Lincoln will get better with the help of his family, even though it will be hard.

The Lost by NiceGodzilla

  • Recommended by Ben Dover
  • Status: Dead
  • Synopsis: This is a story that was inspired by Charlie Higson's: The Enemy series. And the Nickelodeon series: The Loud house. It is about a disease that affects everyone 16 and older. Turning them into cannibalistic, zombie-like creatures. The story follows Lincoln and his sisters as they struggle to survive in this new world.
  • Comments: As mentioned, the fanfic is inspired by the novel series, The Enemy. A very dark fanfic with a lot of punches to the feels in the first few chapters, as beloved characters Lori and Leni, and many others over the age of 16, are amidst the infected.

Lincoln Learns The Hard Way Part 1 and 2 by Cedric 225

  • Recommended by Mc123

  • Synopsis: Lincoln narrowly avoids the clutches of a shotacon, and his sisters endeavor to keep him safe in the future.

Syngenesophobia by That Engineer.

  • Recommended by TerrorKing10
  • Status: Dead (last update July 28, 2021)
  • Synopsis: A general term for the fear of relatives, which can include siblings. When a fight at the Loud House goes too far, the fragile bond the family has is shattered by its outcome. A different twist to "Brawl in the Family".
  • Comments: A darker take on the last scene of the episode "Brawl in the Family", where Lincoln's actions result in the sisters collectively turning on him and giving him a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown that results in him getting hospitalized and developing a crippling fear for his sisters.
  • Note: Now has a trope page.

Mystery of the Self-Loathing Loud by TakeBackTheFalls

  • Recommended by nightshade1218
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis When Lincoln finds a note on the floor that alludes to the fact one of his sisters is depressed or suicidal, he begins an investigation to find out who wrote it.
  • Comments: Intriguing, has good characterization and, despite its subject matter, not as angsty as you'd expect. Shows a lot of promise.

Out of the Way by Weavillain

  • Recommended by Decaf Grub 47393
  • Status: Dormant; last updated November 2018
  • Synopsis: What was the use of her existence if she was just going to keep making the lives of her loved ones worse, just because she couldn't be as special as her perfect siblings? Lori didn't know, and she was certain that she didn't deserve to have a happy answer.
  • Comments: This fic is a sequel to Babysitter from Heaven, and manages to give that story a massive Cerebus Syndrome in just 3 paragraphs.

Darkness Falls on the House of Loud by Trillhouse

  • Recommended by Barack Lesnar
  • Status: Complete.
  • Synopsis: Against her better judgement, Lucy attempts a ritual from an ancient grimoire... with catastrophic results. Now, the Loud siblings find themselves cut off from the world, unable to fight back as an unseen, ever-present force picks them off one by one. Poor Lucy only sought the embrace of darkness... but unwittingly, she may have damned everything she loves to attain it.
  • Comments: A surprisingly chilling horror tale focusing more on a building sense of dread and tension as the remaining siblings start to break down under stress. Characterizations are mostly on point, and the the story never quite dips into overly edgy/grimdark territory.

Loud House: Infection of the Dead by Mr Potassium K

  • Recommended by: Ben Dover
  • Status: Ongoing
  • Synopsis: An infection running rampant around the globe transforms people into zombies, or "roamers". One day, Royal Woods is hit hard by the infection, turning the life of the Louds and everyone they know from a peaceful one into a chaotic one, as their world descends into chaos.

The Nightmare House by MrTyeDye

  • Recommended by: Unicorndance
  • Status: Complete
  • Synopsis: An anthology of the worst nightmares ever suffered by the Loud children.
  • Notes: Very good horror writing, but with a sense of comedy in places and seeing as it's all in their nightmares, you know everyone turns out fine. Lincoln's nightmare in particular is a good satire of the people who think Lincoln is abused, and Lily's nightmare has a good corruption of "mortgage".
  • Has a page.

The Way We Once Were by BluePurpleBadger

  • Recommended by: Ian Brandon Anderson
  • Status: Ongoing
  • Synopsis: As the Loud family faces an apocalypse they will figure out if they actually know how to survive it, and if they can keep a legacy of the lives they once knew.
  • Notes: Isn't afraid to shy away from the more realistic aspects of the apocalypse that occurs in the story. Definitely not for the faint of heart.

  • Pairing(s): Lynn/Francisco
  • Notes: A future fic that uses the Lynn/Francisco pairing as a jumping point to explore a relationship affected by personal traumas and tragedies. An enthralling read.
    • I personally believe this ought to have a fanfic page. But I don't know how to go about it, or even if it gets more exposure. Can anyone help?
