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'.

As a refresher on Lola's backstory, it may help to read chapter 20. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ "Sweetie, are you sure everything is alright?" Rita asked, glancing down at her 4 year old daughter who sat quietly in the stroller. "I'm fine..." Lola replied in a bitter tone. A hard scowl was all that could be seen on her face since she returned to her mother from the playground. It was by pure coincidence that she happened to overhear the derogatory remarks directed at her, but she was thankful her mother had decided to get her out the house to try and cheer her up. "I should've listened to Mommy...instead, I ended up looking like a fool because I listened to that..." Lola balled her tiny fists. "That jerk!" As her feelings changed from simmering annoyance to burning outrage, she fidgeted in her stroller a bit while her forehead began to turn a

The middle child of the Loud family mulled to himself as he pedaled down the street. "I need to have Lola agree to come..." Lincoln's fingers tapped the handle bar as he briefly went over the traits specific to his spoiled sister. "She'll probably want something in return for bringing her, like she usually does. But...then again, so does Lynn (usually by making me play some sport with her). And she didn't ask for anything the last time I asked her for advice." Lincoln momentarily glanced up at the clouds. "Though, Lola seems a little more closer to Lori in attitude than Lynn; at least outside of competition." The Loud realized he was riding past his house just as he was passing the tree on the front lawn, making an abrupt U-turn before going to the garage. Vanzilla was still absent, but after seeing a few of his

Disclaimer: I own NOTHING from the Loud House. "Lori." Carol spoke as she patted the stall door. "You know you can't stay in there forever..." The Loud was sitting on the covered toilet seat, gripping her shoulders tightly as she drew in deep, loud breaths. She heard her group mate talk, but she didn't answer back. The Pingrey girl sighed. "Lori, you knew you were gonna have to face him eventually. It might not be the best circumstances, but you guys can at least try to clear the air." "Carol." Lori started. "We haven't spoken to each other in months. Where do I even begin? Hi, we haven't spoken in a while cause I nearly BEAT MY BROTHER TO DEATH; can we be a couple again?" Carol winced a little. "I mean, it's probably not gonna go like that; but we both know it's gonna come up soon." "Can't I just skip the project and let you guys get all the credit?..." The student body president put her hands on her hips. "You know that isn't an option. All persons in the group have to present

Disclaimer: I own NOTHING from the Loud House. BEEP BEEP! BEEP BEE-! THUMP! Lori stared lazily at her alarm clock as her hand slipped off the sleep button; her eyes had small bags under them to showcase the sleepiness still in her body. Or the lack of it. Since flopping onto the bed, the oldest sibling had barely gotten any rest; part of it was due to the guilt and unsettled feeling that pooled in her stomach all night, the other part being that she tried to figure out how to salvage the damage she caused. Instead, all she could think about was how she messed up not only her chance of reconnecting with her brother, but most likely for her sisters as well. On top of that, she feared Lincoln might've lost whatever confidence he had at handling the situation on his own. Sitting up, Lori rubbed the dead skin from her eyes. "At least he didn't scream and throw stuff at me to leave...like I was trying to kill him..." She mulled to herself whilst swinging her feet over the edge of the

Ch. 41 The Truth Hurts
Disclaimer: I own NOTHING from the Loud House. A Couple Hours Prior... Lori watched as the school bus that had a stop on its route near her house leave the lot. Her younger sisters were on board, seeing the pair giving small talk to each other from the windows. At any usual moment, she would be with them. Or more specifically, she would be driving them towards the school the rest of her siblings were attending before heading home; vanzilla wasn't an option since her parents needed it today. Not that it mattered much, for Lori had other priorities to deal with. Lincoln's rant from that morning left her unsettled for much of the day; she could barely focus on her classes, hardly ate anything during lunch, and even brushed off the rude comments sent her way courtesy of her (former) bestie Whitney. She also didn't fully register the two-person project her Social Studies teacher decided to force on the class, or the fact she had gotten Carol as her partner. Actually, that could be
Disclaimer: I own NOTHING from the Loud House. Shortly after dropping Ronnie Anne at her house, Lincoln made his way towards his own home. Still hung on the optimism over their little chat, his smile hadn't faltered since. "Whether I like it or not, my sisters were right that Ronnie Anne does like me." His smile dropped a little. "Even though I didn't get the best advice," The corners of his mouth swung upwards again. "At least I know she wasn't weirded out by it." Heck, he might as well forgive his friends for being so secretive around him. Being in a state where trust was quite low, they didn't want to end up on the 'avoid all contact for as long as possible' list as well. Course, he already knew that, but affirmation from Ronnie Anne helped cement that thought. He might even thank his sisters later for their part in the mess. If he ever gets comfortable being with them that is. Turning onto his street, Lincoln could already see his house on the other end of the row. As the

Disclaimer: I own NOTHING from the Loud House. ___________________________________________________________________________________ It took Lynn a moment to register a request she didn't think would occur for at least the remainder of the year, but she moved a little further into the shade so Lincoln wouldn't be exposed to the sun. The younger boy sat down, albeit just out of arms reach, which Lynn expected. Lincoln didn't say anything after, preferring to focus on his own lunch for the meantime. The brunette eyed the sandwich he dug out of his bag: peanut butter with sauerkraut. "Of course." Lynn took a mental note, her eyes closing slightly whilst pressing her teeth together so her tongue didn't stick out in disgust. To this day, she didn't understand why he liked the taste, often considering it grody like the rest of her sisters; even Lana, who apparently had no problem eating out of dumpsters. It's not the peanut butter Lynn didn't get; anyone likes that stuff unless you were

Lincoln released a tired groan as he removed his hand from the top of his alarm clock. His right eyelid creaked open, revealing a red vein-riddled sight organ that desperately wanted to go back to being in stasis. As he tucked his hand back under the sheets, Lincoln glanced over at his clock.
"5:20?..." The red, digital numbers stared back at him as if the clock were laughing at his ruined sleep. "Why the heck did it wake me up this early?..."

Lincoln almost regretted his decision to attend dinner with the rest of his family. And by 'almost', we were talking a 70% chance here. He certainly didn't mind dining with his parents; especially after realizing how much he missed Lynn Sr.'s infamous cooking. Sorry Harold and Howard, but Lincoln's dad is just miles better in the kitchen. Plucking another piece of steak into his mouth, the boy had to cut himself short from giving a moan of ecstacy as his taste buds danced in joy.

For the first time in months, there was not an ounce of worry or stress in Lincoln's body. Ever since he walked through the door, the only person keeping him occupied was his bubbly infant sibling. Time was but a blur to Lincoln, not taking any notice on the minutes that passed as Lily cherished his presence in the form of playing around with her toys. Sometimes, the boy would join in on the fun to help Lily's imagination run wild; and he certainly didn't disappoint as Lily laughed at almost everything he
