History Fanfic / StuporHeroics

* UnSorcerer: Not everyone in the world has superpowers, but Lincoln is the only non-meta out of all of his siblings.

** Lori is this UpToEleven. Lori decided the best way to keep Lincoln safe was to force her other siblings (and herself) out of contact with her for years. She even devotes enormous resources to spying on him.

* AdultFear: When ten rambunctious children with little self-control acquire superpowers, the chaos they cause in their house is amplified tenfold. For their non-meta brother, he was at risk of getting seriously hurt getting caught up in their now superpowered antics, and he ''did'', particularly the last time during "The Fight". Lori was forced to make Lincoln stay in his room for his own safety while she 'dealt' with their sisters, and was horrified when she accidentally hurt Lincoln without meaning to and made him afraid of her.

* GoodOldDays: Lori somewhat longs for the pre-meta days, thinking her life was simple. [[spoiler: Luna especially longs for those cherished days, considering how she is still torn up by being separated from Lincoln]].

* [[OnlySaneMan Only Sane Woman]]: Lori is the most competent and responsible of her siblings, and the one who realized that Lincoln couldn't have a safe life while being around his sisters.

** Lincoln felt like the black sheep amongst his siblings after they gained powers. Even stating to Lynn he no longer felt like one of them.
** Furthermore, it's implied some of the sisters became super ''villains'' rather than heroes, though no specific details are mentioned aside from hinting Luna and Lisa are among those numbers.

** Having superpowers makes the already immature Loud siblings incredibly dangerous to be around. Even Lori, [[OnlySaneMan the most responsible of her siblings]], accidentally injures Lincoln and damages his property when trying to help him. Despite Stella being totally benign, Lori still tries to [[MySisterIsOffLimits get rid of her]], because of the threat she could pose to her younger brother.

* DoesNotKnowHisOwnStrength: In the past, when the girls were still adjusting to their powers, Lori grabbed Lincoln by the arm for sneaking out of his room for food, only to accidentally grip it hard enough that it bruised.

* HeroInsurance: Averted. Lynn is forced to remain incognito after one of her stunts destroyed a historic bridge and has to deny the existence of bridges to avoid legal trouble.

* BigBrotherComplex:
** Inverted. At twenty-one, Lynn does a poor job of hiding that she's very attracted to her nineteen-year-old brother.
** [[spoiler: Lucy has it just as bad, and [[GreenEyedMonster doesn't like that both Lynn and Lori]] are hogging Lincoln to them selves. Even though she hasn't revealed herself to him yet.]]
* [[BigBrotherBully Big Sister Bully]]:

* [[BigBrotherInstinct Big Sister instinct]]: Lori's protective instincts towards her brother were amped up tremendously after they all gained powers. Since they were still as reckless and a lot more dangerous. Using her powers to bring all of them in line to keep them from hurting him [[NoodleIncident again]], and is implied to have been the reason none of them approached him for ten years until Lynn showed up at his door. When he trips during their first meeting in years, there isn't even time to tell whether it would have been serious or not before she catches him.
* [[BigLittleBrother Big Little Sister]]: Lynn might have been short as a kid, but as a grown woman Lori notes her younger sister is now much, much taller than her in spite of Lori getting her own superpower-induced growth spurt.

** [[spoiler: Lucy, as stated above, has a massive attraction towards her big brother Lincoln. To were she's been using her powers to portal herself into his bedroom for years to sleep next to him every night. Which is also the only way she can get a goodnight sleep. So both Lynn and Lori taking her spot as Lincoln's sleep buddy has [[GreenEyedMonster frustrated]] her to no end.]]
* [[BigBrotherIsWatching Big Sister Is Watching]]: Lori has Lincoln's apartment building kept under surveillance to make sure nobody tries to use him to get to her or her sisters...and is implied to be at least part of the reason none of his other sisters have tried to contact him, as shown when she goes on the warpath when she hears Lynn is at his apartment. Though she realizes maybe too late that while she monitored most things in his life, she didn't have a scale for how happy he was all alone.

* MakeSomeNoise: Luna possesses some form of sound-based powers, as Lynn and Lori while reminiscing has the former reminding the latter that with Luna's powers, the last place you want to be is anywhere near her [[MakeMeWannaShout when she starts screaming]]. [[spoiler:And when she shows up in the flesh, she's able to amplify and selectively adjust the sound waves coming from a transmitter like she's adjusting a radio knob.]]

* BewareTheSuperman: Having superpowers makes the already immature Loud siblings incredibly dangerous to be around. Even Lori, [[OnlySaneMan the most responsible of her siblings]], accidentally injures Lincoln and damages his property when trying to help him. Despite Stella being totally benign, Lori still tries to [[MySisterIsOffLimits get rid of her]], because of the threat she could pose to her younger brother.

** More details are presented later: Lucy is a superhero named "Umbra" who spends a lot of time in a shadow dimension; Lana is a hero and gets into fights with her twin Lola, which are suspiciously low in collateral damage; Leni and Luan tried their hands at being heroes, but retired to pursue careers in civilian work. Luna and Lisa noticeably have very little info about them aside from what there is being "concerning" (implying they did indeed become villains), while Lily who apparently received powers was also the only one that stayed in touch with Lincoln due to her young age at the time of separation but also since dropped off.

There is also a companion story called [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13987453/1/Stupor-Villainy Stupor Villainy]] by [[https://www.fanfiction.net/u/15183082/Noodlestein Noodlestein]] [[ApprovalOfGod and approved by Siege Perilous]], which is set in the same universe and focuses on several minor and side characters from ''The Loud House'' making their way in this world of metas as [[PunchClockVillain officially-sanctioned supervillains]], in particular Simon Sharp ("[=8Bit=]") and his goal to make contact with his estranged supervillain sister.

** Downplayed, but after eight years without as much as a message from any of them. The first thing Lynn does when she sees him again is call him 'Stinkoln'. Though after that she's perfectly hospitable towards him.

* [[BigLittleBrother Big Little Sister]]: Lynn might have been short as a kid, but as a grown woman Lori notes her younger sister is now much, much taller than her.

* BrokenAce: Lynn and Lori are both successful, beautiful, and wealthy superheroes, but they both live pretty empty lives devoid of human connection and with the media spotlight constantly on them. The former is mostly okay with this but still longs for a relationship with Lincoln.

* LonelyAtTheTop: Lynn's superhero career has given her tons of fame, money, and power, but she lacks any meaningful personal relationships. She's actually fine with that, preferring the life of a solitary superhero, but she does lament not being able to stay in touch with Lincoln.
* LoopholeAbuse: Lori told her siblings not to ''visit'' Lincoln. Leni decided that she could instead send him a gift basket for Christmas and his birthday.

** Whatever "incident" Lynn caused that led to her using it as an excuse to finally make contact with Lincoln apparently lead to the destruction of a ''very'' important bridge. "Apparently" she isn't even [[{{ImplausibleDeniability}} allowed to acknowledge they ever existed]].

* IWorkAlone: Lynn prefers this, as she knows that her abrasive/combative personality coupled with her sheer physical power is a combination that leaves a lot of people she works with annoyed at the best of times over long-term. Sure, she can handle the usual "heroes unite" to stop the newest world-destroying threat just fine, but day-to-day interaction doesn't work with her, and the few "close" relationships she was with metas who aren't her sisters are usually kept at a professional level, with Stella being a rare exception.

** Lynn is a popular superhero and definitely cares about her brother, but she's an abrasive jerk who has a poor working relationship with her fellow metas. She also damages public property, mooches off her younger brother, and causes him a ton of property damage.

* ShamSupernatural: Haiku, the superhero Midnight Bliss, has cultivated the image of being an ageless elegant vampire, complete with sharp front teeth. However, those sharp teeth are just regular meat-tearing canines rather than blood-drinking fangs as her powers came from not a bite from a sire, but an unknowing infusion of wolf DNA. She is very sensitive about her superhero origin and the true nature of her powers.

** Lynn needed to lay low as she ended up destroying a historic bridge while fighting a villain.

* DeliveryGuyInfiltration: [[spoiler:Sam]] poses as a pizza delivery person wearing a thick coat and hat for disguise in an attempt to confirm Lincoln's location [[spoiler:as part of her and Luna's plan to kidnap him]] because no Loud worth their salt [[TrademarkFavoriteFood can resist pizza]]. [[SpannerInTheWorks Lori]] being present on premises opens the door [[ProperlyParanoid suspicious enough to suspect something since no one actually ordered any pizzas]] and doesn't let [[spoiler:Sam]] in or see the inside of the apartment, but [[spoiler:Sam]] is able to avoid raising red flags despite not expecting Lori by playing up the role of irate pizza delivery and stating they've already been paid for before making a show of putting the boxes down and walking off. Lori, while still suspicious, ultimately succumbs to bringing them inside for a free dinner, not knowing [[spoiler:Sam hid a transmitter inside one of the boxes. Luna uses her own [[MakeSomeNoise powers]] to boost the signal on the device letting them confirm that Lincoln is in fact there by hearing his voice.]]

* SemanticSuperpower: Lori only has one ability. To absorb energy and convert it to the same radiation that gave her and her sisters powers. However, that power has so many applications that it's believed she has multiple powers.

** All heroes are this in general. Being heroes isn't something they do in their free time like in comics, but their actual careers. Being forced to set an example and act as a role model for everyone despite still having very human wants and needs. It's implied this is partially why Leni and Luan chose to retire and seek out more fulfilling jobs as civilians.

** Being one of the world's greatest heroes, Lori can't even enjoy cocoa, despite her metabolism being high enough that it won't make her gain weight, just because it would set a bad example for children.

** [[spoiler: Luna is even worse since she plans to straight-up kidnap Lincoln away from their sisters, although she seems to be in part motivated by both hating Lori for keeping them separated in the first place and that she's only recently confirmed where Lincoln lives at all]].

** [[spoiler: Luna is even worse since she plans to straight-up kidnap Lincoln]].
* LimitedWardrobe: Lori spends most of her time in her work costume, and when she's not at work she's sleeping. So when she tries to get dressed while at Lincoln's apartment her choices are limited to her costume or her pajamas

* MakeSomeNoise: Luna is implied to possessed some form of sound-based powers, as Lynn and Lori while reminiscing has the former reminding the latter that with Luna's powers, the last place you want to be is anywhere near her [[MakeMeWannaShout when she starts screaming]].
