1''In a world where metahumans and superheroics are common place, Lincoln Loud is just trying to get through each day with as little fantastical chicanery as possible. Then his one of his estranged, metahuman sisters drops by for a visit, and that becomes significantly more difficult.''
2
3Eight years ago during a camping trip, a comet carrying life-altering radiation struck down near where the Loud kids and some of their friends were set up. All of them were bathed in this miraculous energy and were endowed with fantastic powers that would change their lives from that day forward... except for their brother, who had stomach troubles at the worst possible time.
4
5In the present day, pre-law student Lincoln Loud lives by himself while studying. Living as mundane a life a non-meta can in a world of heroes and villains; that is, until he hears a knock at the door, and someone he hasn't seen in a long time re-enters his life.

14----
15!!This fanfic includes examples of:
16
17* ActionGirl: With some exceptions, most of the metahuman women are this. Special mention to Lori and Lynn.
18* AdaptationalAngstUpgrade: Lincoln, alongside having his canonical issues, now has to deal with the fact he's the only Loud sibling who didn't get superpowers. He admits however that while he did feel envious about it when he was younger, he's mostly over it as an adult. Instead, now he's more upset about how most of his family hasn't been in contact with him for eight years, and effectively cut him out of their lives.
19* AdaptationalBadass: The Loud Sisters all gain superpowers during the radiation shower, and by the present day, many more people have superpowers, too, though they're in the minority.
20* AdaptationalDumbass: Stella is a lot more excitable, but also more scatterbrained than her canon counterpart.
21* AdaptationPersonalityChange: Justified. Everyone is eight years older than they are in canon[[note]] prior to everybody aging a year[[/note]], and powered or not, people rarely stay the same as they were when they were kids even if there still recognizable traits. Lynn for example is a lot more caring and openly affectionate towards her brother, while Stella is kind of an airhead making pretty obvious mistakes.
22* AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul:
23** Lincoln's relationship with his family, and his sisters in particular, is a bit more strained due to him not having superpowers, and then them not bothering to contact him in 8 years.
24** Lincoln and Stella met during middle school in canon, but in this story, they meet 8 years later.
25** Lynn and Stella are complete strangers to each other in the canon show, but in this story, the latter's a big fan of the former.
26* AgeLift: Everybody is 8 years older in this story, but it takes place ''before'' the canonical year up in the main show: so Lincoln, for example, was 11 eight years ago, and is currently 19.
27* AloofBigSister: Lori purposefully invokes this trope with Lincoln, and forces the other older sisters to do this, believing Lincoln is safer without them in his life.
28* AmazonianBeauty: Furiosa (Lynn) is seven feet tall, and is described as beautiful and very well built. Lincoln notes as he's being used by her like a teddy bear that her powerful build does nothing to dampen the softness of her curves. This is apparently common in all metahumans.
29* AmbiguousSituation:
30** In the early parts, the story was ''very'' vague about which Loud siblings specifically went on to become villains or heroes, with the only confirmed ones being Lynn and Lori, as heroes.
31** 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 who's gone villain, 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.
32* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: Lori, Lynn, and Lincoln are a bit uneasy around each other due to their family conflict, but eventually come to accept one another as beneficial to each other.
33* BaitAndSwitch: At least twice.
34** When Lynn asks if there's anything Lincoln thinks he can do with two girls. It cuts to them playing with each other...against the villain card in ''TabletopGame/SentinelsOfTheMultiverse''.
35** While Lincoln's out Lynn has Stella come in to help her with something that 'only she can do'. Cut to Stella sitting on the couch while Lynn lifts it hoping to use the girl's mass manipulation to get a decent workout.
36* BeautifulDreamer: Lucy has been using her powers to sneak into Lincoln's apartment and watch him sleep for a long time...when she isn't taking it a step further and sneaking into his bed to sleep alongside him. She's annoyed when Lynn and Lori visit him and take her spot from her.
37* BerserkButton:
38** Stay away from Lincoln if you are one of his sisters. Lori won't be happy if you don't. She's not too keen on [[MySisterIsOffLimits any other super-powered woman getting close to him either]].
39** Don't remind Haiku she's not a vampire. She's embarrassed to admit she got her powers from drinking soda infused with wolf genes.
40* BewareTheSuperman:
41** 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. It gets to a point where they had to kick Lincoln out of the family so their fights wouldn't endanger him, and the government forced the Loud siblings into a [[SuperRegistrationAct superhuman training program so they could get better control of their powers]].
42** 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.
43** [[spoiler: Despite being a meta herself, Luna resents the superhero world, longing for the more stable pre-meta days]].
44* BigBrotherBully:
45** 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.
46** It's implied that after they got their powers and were wrecking their house and putting their brother in danger that Lori was willing to get physically violent with her sisters in order to bring them into line or keep them away from Lincoln.
47* BigBrotherInstinct: 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.
48* BigLittleBrother: 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.
49* BigBrotherAttraction:
50** Inverted. Eldest sister and one of the world's greatest heroes, Lori, is very attracted to her eight years younger brother.
51** [[spoiler: Lucy 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.]]
52* BigBrotherIsWatching: 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.
53* BilingualBackfire: The Loud sisters have a code based on body language they use to speak to each other without speaking, that they use to have conversations with each other without talking, usually in front of Lincoln...until he butts in and they realize he's cracked it.
54* BlackSheep:
55** Lincoln felt like the black sheep amongst his siblings after they gained powers and was effectively booted out of the family without being offered a reason why.. Even stating to Lynn he no longer felt like one of them.
56** 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. [[spoiler: Luna is revealed to have become a fugitive from the law]].
57* BothSidesHaveAPoint: Lori isn't wrong that she and the rest of the Loud sisters are a threat to his safety and that kicking him out was for his own good, but Lynn isn't wrong that not being in contact with them has made him incredibly miserable.
58* BreakHisHeartToSaveHim: Lori isn't proud of how unhappy Lincoln is that he hasn't seen most of his family in nearly a decade and feels even worse at how he'll feel when she leaves and takes Lynn with her out of his life again, but it's all to keep him safe from getting hurt again.
59* 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, admitting that her personality tends to rub people the wrong way, but still longs for a relationship with Lincoln.
60* ChickMagnet: Every woman shown thus far, related to him or not, has been shown to have or is developing feelings for Lincoln. All of whom are superhuman and thus some of the most [[WithGreatPowerComesGreatHotness beautiful women]] in the world. Even Haiku who went on one date with him [[Recap/TheLoudHouseS1E22DanceDanceResolutionAFairToRemember nearly ten years ago]] remembers it fondly and not only believes there was something more to it but still likes him enough to suggest to his equally smitten sister that she would have no trouble sharing him.
61* CoolBigSis:
62** Despite being told to stay away from Lincoln, Leni continued to send him a gift basket every Christmas.
63** [[spoiler: Luna was this with Lincoln, letting him stay on her dates with Sam, and willingly watching cheesy superhero movies she dislikes to make him happy]].
64* CurbStompBattle: Lynn versus Luna is this [[spoiler:with Luna barely able to hurt Lynn with her strongest sonic attacks. When Lynn finally fights back, Lincoln and Sam note she basically made her a "human accordion" before tossing her hard enough to make a crater.]] It's stated that this particular match-up ended up like this this even back in their younger days.
65* DaddyHadAGoodReasonForAbandoningYou: More like "siblings had a good reason to ignore you", but this trope more or less applies. Lori was so concerned that Lincoln could get hurt or killed by her sisters' superpowered antics after he ended up needing to be taken to the hospital simply by being ''near'' a fight they had, she ordered them not to interfere in his life at all.
66* DarkIsNotEvil: Lucy has gained shadow powers, goes by the name "Umbra", and is the same AloofDarkHairedGirl she was in canon, but she's a heroic soul.
67* DeconstructionFic: The story deconstructs the “Loud siblings gain superpowers” type of story. Having superpowers makes their dysfunctional family dynamics ''incredibly'' destructive. Lincoln, the one sibling with no powers, is in constant physical danger from it. Lori decided that cutting Lincoln out of her and her sisters' lives was the best way to keep him safe.
68* 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 the would-be inflitrator is able to avoid raising red flags despite not expecting Lori by [[BavarianFireDrill 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 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.]]
69* DidntThinkThisThrough: While Lori is mostly level-headed, [[NotSoAboveItAll she does have a lack of foresight about certain things]]. When Lori came crashing through Lincoln's apartment wall to get at Lynn, she forgot that he might be mad about the damage, and she didn't consider how he would feel about his sisters basically abandoning him.
70* DidntSeeThatComing: The villains tearing apart Royal Woods were prepared to deal with the average hero, but not [[TheParagon Luminary]] herself.
71* 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. Even in the present day, Lori and Lynn can still cause damage to Lincoln's apartment.
72* EatingTheEyeCandy: Stella ends up doing this by accident when Lincoln talks to her in the morning [[spoiler:after he has sex with Lori and Lynn]] and he didn't put on a shirt, giving her an eyeful of his bare chest and then back when he turns around to go put on a coat. She's so distracted that she doesn't even realize she was reaching into the apartment to pick him out until he turns around and notices her enlarged hand being so close.
73* ExperiencedProtagonist: Both Lori and Lynn, two of the main protagonists, are already among the most prominent heroes in the world. When a group of miscreants accidentally realize they've attracted Lori's ire, [[KnowWhenToFoldEm they quickly surrender]].
74* ExtremeOmnivore: One of the side-effects of Lynn's powers is that she converts just about ''anything'' she eats into more muscle mass. Lincoln recalls a time when Lana dared her to eat a rusty metal pipe. So she did and then asked for seconds.
75* {{Fangirl}}: Stella happens to be a massive Furiosa fangirl. Meeting Lynn sent her into a giddy fit that accidentally triggered her powers.
76* FlyingBrick: Lori, as Luminary, has a combination of super strength and the ability to fly.
77* FormerTeenRebel: Deconstructed. [[spoiler: Luna ran away from the metahuman camp out of disgust and anger over her separation from Lincoln...but this led to her and Sam spending almost a decade being homeless and barely scrapping by]].
78* FreudianExcuse: [[spoiler: Luna becoming a fugitive from the law was driven by her trauma over being forcibly separated from Lincoln]].
79* GeniusDitz: Leni has become a successful businesswoman. Owning a fashion company that outfits all the heroes with a nigh-indestructible material that Lori is surprised she hadn't invented earlier...but she's still very much Leni.
80* AGlassInTheHand: Lori crushes a mug she's drinking from when she sees that Lynn broke the agreement of not interacting with Lincoln.
81* GoodIsNotNice: All of the Loud siblings have this to a certain extent.
82** Lincoln not getting superpowers and being ignored by his older siblings has left him with a bit of a chip on his shoulder. Nevertheless, he still is a decent guy who tries to be patient and understanding towards Lynn.
83** Lynn is a popular superhero and definitely cares about her brother as well as saving the world, 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.
84** Lori is a competent superhero who wants to protect her younger brother, but she does some pretty harsh things to keep him safe, to the point of using force to keep her sisters from interacting with him.
85* TheGoodOldDays: 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]].
86* GreenEyedMonster: Lincoln was super envious of everybody except him getting powers when he was younger, but between then and the present he got over it. Lynn is surprised to hear that he doesn't feel this way anymore and fully expected him to still resent them.
87* [[SheIsAllGrownUp He Is All Grown Up]]: It really doesn't help Lori's...''complex'' feelings towards Lincoln after seeing him for the first time since he was eleven, and realizing she finds her now-adult brother even without [[WithGreatPowerComesGreatHotness a power induced upgrade]] is ''very'' good looking.
88* HeroismWontPayTheBills: Averted. The world works much like ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia'' where heroes make a name for themselves then turn that into a money-making franchise. It's stated that all the Loud heroines are doing well enough that they can support themselves and their parents comfortably.
89* HeroInsurance: The story completely averts this.
90** 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.
91** Lori and Lynn have to foot the bill for any damage they inflict on Lincoln's apartment.
92** Superheroes in general need specially designed, and expensive, equipment to deal with their enhanced strength.
93* ImplausibleDeniability: PlayedForLaughs. In order to get out of trouble for destroying a bridge, Lynn has to deny the very existence of bridges themselves.
94* InASingleBound: Lacking {{Flight}}, this is how Lynn would usually travel around, though she notes it's "not an exact science" and she would usually just jump in the general direction of trouble, nor is she very "graceful" on the landings. While the Department of Metahuman Affairs would usually turn a blind eye to the minor property damage she causes as a result, her NoodleIncident with the bridge and resulting sabbatical have lead them to put a tighter leash on such antics and now she has to drive a heavily-reinforced (and admittedly fully-stocked luxury) car.
95* InnocentlyInsensitive: PlayedForDrama: The Loud Sisters tried to protect Lincoln by sending him to live with his grandparents, but by not communicating to him the reasons for it, namely that their fights were a danger to his health, they not only damaged his self-esteem but hurt his remaining social life.
96* InsecureLoveInterest: Lynn beneath her confident face definitely feels this way about her relationship with Lincoln, worried that her looks don't excite him or that he's not interested in a woman who's also his sister.
97* 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. 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.
98* KnightTemplarBigBrother: Sister in this case, but Lori went to some pretty extreme lengths to keep Lincoln out of harm's way: first by forcing him to stay in his room to protect him from his sisters' violence. And when that didn't work, Lori effectively kicked Lincoln out of the family, kept him and the other Loud siblings from contacting each other, and had Lincoln subjected to a lot of surveillance, even well into his college years.
99* LeotardOfPower: The standard style of uniform for the heroines shown thus far is described as little more than a swimsuit.
100* IJustWantToBeLoved: After his sisters acquired their powers, Lincoln began to feel more and more like an outsider in his own family. This only got worse after he was sent away for his own safety and none of his sisters, sans Lily, even tried to make contact with him.
101* IJustWantToBeSpecial: Subverted. Lincoln admits that when he was younger, he was insanely envious of his sisters. He was just a kid and a major hero fanboy who was the only one of them to miss out, so of course, he'd feel that way. He has grown out of this mindset by the story's present-day and is more upset that ''nobody'' in his family has tried to get in contact with him for nearly eight years.
102* {{Irony}}:
103** Lincoln, the biggest comic and heroes fan in the whole family, was the only Loud child that didn't get any powers.
104** Despite wearing a conventionally revealing leotard while doing her hero duties, Lori actually dresses more conservatively in her sleep.
105* ItsNotYouItsMyEnemies: Lori does want to be part of her little brother's life, but since she and her other sisters are prominent metas, their relation to Lincoln puts a large target on his back due to all the enemies they have, and so she feels cutting ties with him is the best way to keep him safe.
106* [[KnightTemplarBigBrother Knight Templar Big Sister]]:
107** 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.
108** [[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]].
109* 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. She eventually upgrades to a tank top and shorts combo similar to what she'd wear back in the day.
110* 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 and admitting that her personality doesn't make her well-suited for long-term team ups, but she does lament not being able to stay in touch with Lincoln.
111* LoopholeAbuse:
112** Lori told her siblings not to ''visit'' Lincoln. Leni decided that she could instead send him a gift basket for Christmas and his birthday.
113** Lucy meanwhile sneaks in when Lincoln is asleep to watch him. And sleep alongside him with her brother none the wiser.
114* 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 [[SuperScream 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, or offensively weaponize the slight sound of a slap by amplifying it enough to make the shockwave send a grown man flying with enough force to knock him unconscious and break limbs.]]
115* MarshmallowHell:
116** Lynn is very well endowed and tall enough that when she hugs Lincoln his face ends up in her chest.
117** Later Lori almost suffocates her brother through a combination of super strength and super-cleavage.
118** It happens again a minute later when Stella makes everybody hug, forcing him between both of his well-endowed sisters, but this time leaving him with his precious oxygen.
119** Lincoln's apartment only has one bed, and neither of his sisters staying with him will let him take the couch. So he's forced to sleep sandwiched between them both. Unable to sleep as they both hug him like he's a stuffed toy.
120* MissedTheCall: During the empowering event that gave his sisters and their friends powers, Lincoln was in the woods suffering from his [[TheFoodPoisoningIncident dinner not agreeing with him]].
121* MassSuperEmpoweringEvent: Very [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]], since only a small group of people were empowered, but the radiation shower the sisters went through, and Lincoln missed, granted them superpowers.
122%%* MoralityPet: So far the Loud sisters showed all consider their brother their greatest weakness. So much that Lori invests a lot of time, money, and technology to keep him monitored in case the worst should happen.
123* MostCommonSuperpower: So far, all heroines shown are described as having a buxom build. Lincoln even lampshades that such endowments are common for female metas.
124* MundaneUtility: Lori is often called upon to use her spacefaring powers to fix satellites in space.
125* MythologyGag: Once again [[CannotTellaLie Leni's poor ability to keep secrets]] rears its head when Lori and Lynn find out she helped Lincoln understand their secret sister language.
126* NoodleIncident:
127** '''Something''' happened to Lincoln when he was still living at home with his sisters, though Lincoln himself has no idea what happened during "The Fight". He remembers being sent to his room after Lori promised to take cares of things. The house shaking. Bright light, then waking up in hospital with his grandparents and being told he could never go back home again.
128** 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]].
129** Lori apparently [[HurlItIntoTheSun threw Carol into the sun]] for kicks once. Don't worry, everyone knew that Carol [[{{Retcon}} would just use her powers so that it "never happened".]]
130** Lori once had an encounter with a [[ItMakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext sentient, omnipotent burrito that claimed to have created the universe]], heavily implied to be an AuthorAvatar as Creator/TheSiegePerilous has a shot of a burrito from ''The Loud House'' as his Fanfiction profile picture.
131* NoSell:
132** A group of bad guys try and fight Luminary with light-based weapons...which not only fail, but power her up even more due to her strength coming from light.
133** Lynn is so strong and tough that you need to have raw power comparable to Lori to actually have any hope of doing real damage. [[spoiler:Luna hits her with a sonic attack that could easily shatter trees and only hurts ''herself'' on Lynn's body, and following up with a sonic attack that would ''kill'' a normal person several times over just slightly hurts her.]]
134* NotSoAboveItAll:
135** Lori likes to consider herself as the most responsible of Lincoln's sisters. Lori is also the one that put a giant hole in the side of her brother's apartment while wanting to punish Lynn for violating the agreement.
136** Lincoln is painfully aware of how stupidly hot his sisters are and is as attracted to them as they are to him, and has to take great efforts to keep them from [[RagingStiffie finding out]] when they both decide to cling tightly to him during sleep.
137* NotWearingTights: [[spoiler: As part of her dislike of the superhero fad, Luna eschews a superhero costume, choosing to wear the most basic clothes]].
138* [[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. [[OnlySaneByComparison That being said]], she's made more than her fair share of questionable decisions, from forcibly barring her siblings from communicating to Lincoln in any meaningful way to subjecting Lincoln to an incredible amount of surveillance.
139* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Lincoln is shocked to see [[spoiler: Lynn, of all people, come home tried and needing to pass out. Stella points out that hero license reinstatement tests are that demanding]].
140* OriginsEpisode: Averted because we never actually see the event that gave the Loud sisters their powers.
141* TheParagon: Deconstructed with Lori. Having to be Luminary, the great hero and inspiration to the world, all the time and not being allowed to vent and be herself has left her feeling jaded and exhausted.
142* PintsizedPowerhouse: Subverted in modern-day where Lynn is a seven-foot-tall amazon, but played straight since she was a short kid prior to her growth spurt. It plays to her advantage since a lot of villains she fights tend to think Furiosa is just a lumbering brute, only to get surprised when she busts out the skills she learned to take down those bigger than her when she was younger.
143* PoorCommunicationKills: While the Loud family meant well, they didn't properly communicate to Lincoln why he was to be separated from most of his family, only saying "it was complicated". This damaged his self-esteem and made him think he was the BlackSheep of the family.
144* ThePowerOfRock: [[spoiler: Sam is revealed to possess an electric guitar with a special gem that allows her to weaponize her musical abilities and acts as a TransformationTrinket to transform her into "Ragna-rock", who is essentially a ''ComicBook/{{Shazam}}'' ShoutOut]].
145* PunchCatch: [[spoiler:Sam/Ragna-rock]] pulls this on ''Lynn'', who up to this point has essentially out-muscled everyone in the story not named Lori, and even Lori would prefer not to get into a physical tussle with her when she could use her other abilities for safer options. Lynn even notes for just about anyone else trying that on her would end up with broken bones and spraying viscera.
146* RaisedByGrandparents: After the sisters' fight that resulted in Lincoln waking up in the hospital, Albert and Myrtle moved out of the retirement home into a house on the outskirts of the city so Lincoln could live with them away from the danger his sisters presented to him.
147* RelativelyFlimsyExcuse: Lincoln thinks sisters were all just too busy with their super-lives to see him, which Lori realizes was him trying to come up with any excuse about why they all cut him out of their lives for years when it's implied that Lori had been ''forcing'' them to stay away from him to keep him safe.
148* TheRealHeroes: While his sisters are off being career superheroes (and villains), Lincoln is studying pre-law, trying to become a hero without the spandex.
149* ReluctantFanserviceGirl: Lori wears a very revealing superhero outfit, but it is clear she hates being objectified and stared at. It is implied this is why her sleepwear is very conservative.
150* RetiredBadass: Both Luan and Leni have retired from heroism, pursuing civilian careers after realizing a hero career wasn't something they were cut out for.
151* RefusalOfTheCall: [[spoiler:Luna already didn't really find the appeal of superheroes even before they became reality and she herself got powers, and getting them didn't make her want to accept the call to be a hero either since those powers cost her the ability to be with her brother for his own protection and she's seen the ugly side-effects of the profession first-hand such as HoldingOutForAHero and BystanderSyndrome.]]
152* 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 radiation has so many applications that it's believed she has multiple powers.
153* SexGod: As it turns out, Lincoln himself. [[spoiler:Despite being an otherwise normal human compared to his sisters Lori and Lynn having SuperStrength and SuperToughness, he's the one who's actually the best off after their first threesome. Sure, he's having a bit of troubling moving and he still got the pains, but Lori and Lynn ''flat out lose the feeling in their bodies'', with the former only able to move via floating while the latter is stuck face-down on the bed unable to even roll over. They even wonder once Lincoln walks off oblivious to this if he actually secretly does have powers, or maybe if he was "bitten by a radioactive pornstar" in the eight years he's been alone.]]
154* 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 since she's been a fan of vampires since a young age and vampires ''actually do'' exist in this meta world
155* ShowWithinAShow: Lynn has a show based on her life called 'Hearts Of Fury' that she only remembered signing off on so she could go back to saving the world by punching things and only vaguely remembers consulting for. She's disappointed that the actress is too small to play her, the action is non-existent, it's shallow and boring and she's horrified to find that she accidentally gave them enough info about herself to create a white-haired love interest for the lead that she hopes nobody realizes is based on her feelings for her brother.
156* {{Shapeshifting}}: Stella is a polymorph with the ability to alter the properties of her body. Though she also suffers from a healthy dose of PowerIncontinence since it's tied to her emotions, and she's a very excitable girl. It also comes with a very handy HealingFactor letting her take hits that would kill a normal person.
157* SlaveToPR:
158** Almost all heroes are this in general. Being heroes isn't something they do in their free time like in comics, but their actual careers and being forced to set an example and act as a role model for everyone despite still having very human wants and needs. This includes making mandatory public appearances for the fans as well as sponsoring certain products belonging to the companies supporting them. It's implied this is partially why Leni and Luan chose to retire and seek out more fulfilling jobs as civilians. One of the few exceptions is Becky, who according to Lori actually ''loves'' making appearances at various conventions to the point that while other heroes mainly dread taking their mandatory quota of them, her handlers have to hold her back from making too many appearances.
159** Lynn needs to lay low as she ended up destroying a historic bridge while fighting a villain.
160** 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. When she complains one of the products she sponsors [[DoubleStandard is just as bad for them]], her marketing team acknowledges this [[ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney but since they're a sponsor it's out of their hands]].
161* SmartPeopleWearGlasses: Lincoln eventually gets a pair of glasses. Justified since having to sift through legal documents puts quite a strain on his eyes.
162* StrongAndSkilled: Thinking Furiosa is just a brute who swings her fists without any thought is a good way to get taken out. Lynn Loud spent years as a short kid who used her skills to take on opponents bigger than her, and she didn't stop honing it after she got her powers.
163* SuperRegistrationAct: The government created the Department of Superhuman Affairs to give metas like the Loud sisters the training they needed so they could better control their powers. Having hospitalized Lincoln with their fight, the Loud siblings [[spoiler: except Luna]] agreed.
164* {{Telepathy}}: Not so much actual mind-reading, but rather a skill that the Loud sisters learned as a way to communicate without talking by reading each other's bodies, which just like with so many other things is something they have that their brother doesn't...right up until they find out he ''does''.
165* ThereIsOnlyOneBed: Lincoln only has one bed in his apartment, and neither of his sisters currently staying with him is willing to let him take the couch or take it themselves if it means the other one has to share the bed with him. He 'had' bought a bed big enough for more than one person just in case he was lucky enough to invite anybody to stay the night, but he didn't expect that to mean being pinned in place and slowly squeezed to death by his two superhumanly strong and superhumanly attractive sisters using him as a teddy bear.
166* AThreesomeIsHot: Haiku briefly implied she wouldn't mind having one between herself, Lucy, and Lincoln. [[spoiler:And then Lincoln, Lori, and Lynn actually do have one and very much enjoy it.]]
167* TookALevelInBadass: Back when the Louds were first getting used to their superpowers, [[spoiler:Sam]] was still essentially just a normal person. In the present-day, Lynn gets a rude awakening that not only has [[spoiler:Sam]] gained powers too in the years since, [[spoiler:she's the more powerful between herself and her girlfriend Luna.]]
168* ToxicWasteCanDoAnything: Stella got her powers after licking a can of toxic waste. Subverted for all the other kids that were with her, who got a trip to the hospital instead.
169* UnSorcerer: Not everyone in the world has superpowers, but Lincoln is the only non-meta out of all his siblings. It is deconstructed since it meant he was in constant peril from her siblings and their destructive ways.
170* WellIntentionedExtremist: Lori wanted to protect Lincoln from the caprices of her superpowered but irresponsible siblings. But in the process, she isolated him from the rest of the family, ruined many of his platonic friendships, and left him with a bit of a chip on his shoulder.
171* WithGreatPowerComesGreatHotness: Gaining superpowers makes you good looking, and if you were already good looking then it makes you more so. All women with powers shown thus far are beautiful with great curves and large breasts.
172* TheWorldIsAlwaysDoomed: Lynn's agent trying to get her to sign off on 'Hearts of Fury' uses this very line when Lynn is distracted by the current unnamed world-ending crisis she's dealing with and won't listen to the pitch. To which she responds that it's ''always'' kind of a big deal and only signs on to get it over with and back to work.
173* WorldsMostBeautifulWoman: Lori Loud was already a beautiful young woman before she became a hero. After her empowering Lincoln claims that she's 'literally almost divine'.
174
175!!Stupor Heroics: The Golden Age contains the following examples:
176* ActionFashionista: Quite literally, Leni's power is designing clothes that contain nifty, if controllable powers.
177* BunglingInventor: Leni's empowered clothing is constantly backfiring: she puts on a dress that launches her into the air, crashing through the roof. She apparently designed an outfit with infinite pockets...but the pockets are so infinite, everything that goes in them gets lost.
178* ClothesMakeTheSuperman: Leni's power is creating outfits that give their wearers powers. The results have been...mixed to say the least.
