"Living in a house with 11 siblings sounds like fun, and it is, but it's not without its downs. My mother went through the excruciatingly painful experience of giving birth and decided to do it 11 more times, not that I'm complaining. Out of my 11 siblings I have 10 sisters (yikes)." Lincoln said speaking to the audience
"Lori: 17, Leni: 16, Luna: 15, Luan: 14, Lynn: 13 (my parents were really on a roll), Lucy: 8, Lana & Lola: 6, Lisa: 4, & Lily: 16 months. Then there's me, Lincoln Loud, 11 years old. While having 10 sisters is a as annoying as it sounds, thankfully I'm not the only male sibling in this family, there's my brother Lars. Lars is 9 years old, he had medium length hair as blonde as Leni's, due to Leni and Lola constantly demadning to do his hair it's usually braided or tied up to his annoyance, because of Leni, Lars would almost describe his style as effeminant, Leni would describe it as glamorous, although he'd prefer a more masculine style it was one of the very few things he didn't argue over as he didn't necesarily hate hiscurrent style. Like me he doesn't necessarily have a specific talent or hobby that he'd be identified by, however he's what you'd call a 'jack of all trades, but a master of none', mom made him take an extracurricular activity, after some convincing from Luna (she just kept bugging him) he chose to take piano lessons, Luna finally got a jam partner much to Lars' annoyance. "
"Since spring break was a week away we were in Lori's room deciding what to do since we usually spend most of our weekends and breaks together. As much as we got under eachother's skins we were all almost like best friends and inseparable and we all felt that way... Except Lisa and Lars, ESPECIALLY Lars. Every once and a while we all save up enough money to all go on a vacation" Lincoln finished
"Ok the sibling meeting to determine what we're doing for spring break is now in order!" Lori said as she banged her heels on her desk. "Ok who wants to get us started with some ideas" The siblings began to burst with suggestions, Me and Lars made suggestions such as the beach, dairyland, and the waterpark, someone even suggested we visit a research lab (I'll let you guess who that was...), Lori then banged her high heel on her desk.
"Calm down you guys, I LITERALLY have the best idea" Lori said. Oh.. Hopefully this is good. "The boyband "Boys will be boys" will LITERALLY be performing in the next town over" all the girls begin to scream "I have a brochure for a hotel that has LITERALLY everything, but most importantly a spa, where we can relax!" Lincoln and Lars just looked at eachother figuring this would happen. I mean they couldn't blame them toooooo much, it did sound appealing... FOR THEM!
Assuming everything had been settled Lars began to leave, but was stopped by Lori. "Hold up, we still have one last matter of business to handle" Said Lori
"And what's that" inquired Lars
"DUHHHH, we're going to the movies today lame'o" responded Lynn
"Huh!? We are?" Lincoln & Lars said in unison
"We're going to see 'A Lover's Dying Rose' starring Blake Bradley" Lori said with hearts in her eyes. The rest of the girls began to squeel.
"Wait, even you Lucy?" Lars said curious
Lucy shrugged "After watching him on Vampires of Melancholia I've kind of gotten use to him" Lucy began to blush a little. "Come to think of it, she did go crazy for Hugh so maybe even she's into those kind of guys rather then pale middle aged looking vampires."Lincoln thought
"Ughhh whatever I'll have to pass on that" Lars spat
"You shouldn't be such a baby about it dweeb" Lori replied moping a little
"Yeah why don't you spend some time with your family for once!"
All lars could hear was all his sisters screamings "YEAH!" and "You tell him!", it succeeded in taking Lars from mildly annoyed to incredibly annoyed.
"Please! Lynn the last time I asked you to watch a movie with me you threw a ball at my head and said anime was for nerds!" spat Lars
"pfft" is all Lynn could manage
"And Lori! I constantly try and spend time with you and all you ever do is groan at me then return to texting Bobby!" Continued Lars
"Whatever, no one's into the that nerdy stuff you and Lincoln like" Lori replied
The girls were gasping at Lars' outburst, Lola even looked a bit angry.
"and I'm not into being used as a punching bag" Lars looked at Lynn "or being dressed up as a butler to serve tea and I definetly HATE makeovers!" Lars gives Lola a death stare, even making a angry Lola flinch "and I don't like hearing terrible jokes for 2 hours straight" Lars stares directly at Luan. "I wonder who he's talking about..." Luan wispered to Luna.
"Yet I always find myself doing those things anyways" Lars finished
An enraged Lola finally began to release her venom "Well It's not our fault! It's not like you guys would be our first choice, maybe if you had a special talent worth mentioning besides reading comics in your undies, playing games, and coming up with TERRIBLE plans!" Lola looked at lincoln. "I'm still wondering how I even got involved in this... It's like the girls naturally team up and put me and Lars on a team, so everytime Lars acts up I get attacked as well" Lincoln thought to himself. "Or watching stupid anime, making stupid memes, and BARELY knowing how to play a piano!"
Luna, Leni, Luan, & Lana gasped thinking Lola went too far, but this was to be expected of the young one, Lisa looked indifferent, Lori, & Lynn were smiling, and it was hard to tell how Lucy felt...
Lars was appalled though, the notion that he could only BARELY play the piano was disrespectful for a lack of better termonology, I mean as far as the piano goes he was arguably better then even Luna, who was prolific in SEVERAL instruments, Lars was quite proud of his proficiency on the piano to say the least and Lola knew this. However, what really set Lars off was the assertion that Lincoln's only talent was gaming, reading comics in his undies, and coming up with bad plans. Lincoln may not have a talent he's known for but like Lars he was a jack of all trades, I mean Lincoln is the same man who trained Lola and even LANA to be pangent queens! Not to mention he quickly figured out the game of golf in order to help Lori and was able to advise her on which club would work best, needless to say if Lincoln wasn't wasting his talents to help the girls in their endeavers who knows where he'd be!
"Maybe if we weren't wasting our time helping you girls we'd be able to focus on our own things" Lars managed to say while gritting his teeths attemping to keep his feelings bottled up. "If you think we're such talentless losers and aren't your first choice then stop bothering me" Lars said moppingly as he stomped out the room, heading back to the room he and Lincoln shared.
"Whoa lil dudette, I think you hurt his feelings" Luna spoke
"hmph, serves him right" Lola said still mad
"Like... That wasn't very nice Lola" Leni chimed in
"HE WAS MEAN FIRST" Lola barked back
"I LITERALLY don't know why he always has to have a attitude, he can be such a moody brat sometimes" Lori spoke
"Well he was only born a year before Lucy" Luan Jokingly said
All the sisters except Lily, Lisa, and Lucy laughed
Lucy shrugged, she knew it was meant as an insult but she didn't feel insulted at all, she thought Lars was cool, while the other sisters didn't have the best opinions of Lars and Lincoln, Lucy was rather fond of both her brothers as they were the nicest to her.
Lori finishes laughing and regains her composure "Ok, we should get ready the movie will be starting in LITERALLY 40 minutes, Lincoln you're coming right"
Dang it... Honestly I didn't want to see this stupid chick flick either, unlike Lars though I'm not as bold to incur the wrath of my sisters... Then I thought of the perfect excuse!
"Actually" Lincoln said "I should probably go check on Lars, in case he gets lonely."
The sisters looked at me for a second then nodded in agreement. Lars wasn't the type to really get lonely, he'd probably prefer being alone to be honest, and everyone in the Loud house knew that, regardless he knew the idea of Lars being lonely would work on his sisters, despite how nasty and selfish they act sometimes... most times, they really do care for their only two brothers, in their own way and didn't want Lars lonely.
Lincoln begin to walk towards the room me and Lars share. His idea worked perfectly, who said his plans were terrible again?
"Hey bro" Lincoln said as he jumped on his own seperate bed.
"Hi..." Lars said bashfully.
"still upset huh..." Lincoln replied
"It's whatever..." Lars said lying down with his head turned
"Look I get it but don't you think you were a little harsh?" Lincoln said
Lars turned around to face Lincoln, he loved his only brother but the way Lincoln let their sisters walked all over him was infuriating, to the point Lars sometimes wanted to punch his older brother.
"Lincoln you're just too soft! You let them walk all over you!" Lars yelled at Lincoln
"But La-" Lincoln said before being interrupted
"What did I say in there that was wrong!? They constantly use us for whatever they want to do or need help but won't do anything we like! They won't even let us get a little time to ourselves, remember when you got those earbuds just so you could read your comics in peace and they ended up maliciously pranking you!"
"yea bu-" That's all Lincoln could get out.
"Or how about that time you didn't deny LYNN'S dumb lie about you being bad luck so you could get some time to yourself, so they ostracized and left you at home for like 2 weeks, GEEZ I thought they were gonna disown you and kick you out of the house for a second!" Lars spoke with passion
"You're being dramatic now. They'd never kick me of the house, even if I was bad luck..." or at least Lincoln hoped "besides I did go with the lie..." Lincoln said
"See that's your problem Lincoln! You always shift ALL the blame on yourself! Of course you'd do whatever to get some time alone cause when you do go to a event YOU get labeled as bad luck cause Lynn's a sore loser! Where's Lynn's punishment or blame for being a sore loser?"
"They're still our sisters" Lincoln calmly said
"Honestly... While I love them, sometimes they make me feel like we're not apart. They have "sister meetings" by theirselves most of the time, they always seem to vote together even on things you think they wouldn't, and let's not bring up that stupid sister protocal nonsense"
Now that incident really did rub Lincoln the wrong way, not only did they block Lincoln from most of the house and HIS OWN ROOM over a stupid arguement about a dress, they made it seem like he was the problem! Lars just like Lincoln couldn't care less about their petty squabbling but was extremely annoyed that they kept using their room over some stupid argument, Lars' room was his safe area, the only place to excape the madness that is the LOUD house, needless to say he was pissed. He gave the girls the quiet treatment for a week until they eventually apologized.
"They argue over a dress and dismiss the stupidity as it just being a gender thing we "boys" simply can't get, yet when we have a friendly, semi heated debate over which is better between One Piece and Naruto they treat us like idiots!" Lars had a strong belief that One Piece was the greatest anime, series, show, world, ANYTHING period, and he could not let Lincoln spout such blasphemies.
Lincoln sighed, truthfully he didn't disagree with his little brother, but Lincoln was almost like the glue of the family, he held the siblings together, so while he does have his moments where he expresses his negative feelings towards his sisters, and even having to apologize for his own mistake, but he learned to let certain things go and developed thick skin for the sake of his family. Lars was a different breed though.
"Lars you need to calm down, we can address everything in a sibling meeting later maybe, regardless of all of that we're gonna have to deal with them all of our life"Lincoln said
"I don't want to have another stupid sibling meeting Linc, all it'll lead to is a fight probably? We're not gonna handle this by talking, this calls for a scheme, and luckily I have the man with the plan her with me" "oh no" Lincoln thought.
"Lars I don't think a scheme is the best idea I mean most of the time they always end up backfiring" Lincoln was right, for some reason most of his plans (even the good ones) somehow ended up backfiring.
"Please, that's why I'm gonna help you, with me there's no way your plan will go too far" Lars pleaded.
Maybe Lars had a point, while Lisa was BY FAR the most intelligent person in the Loud house, Lars was easily the second most intelligent person in the house, usually earning straight A's without really trying, and thanks to Lisa's tutelage he usually tests at a college level, if they had to list the loud house from smartest to... not the smartest it'd go Lisa, Lars, Lincoln, Lori, Luna, Luan, Lynn & Lucy, Lola, Lana, Leni, & Lily. Lars however, lacked the creativity and "resolution" skills Lincoln had, he could rack his brain all night and probably couldn't figure out how to get his sisters to be more considerate of their brothers.
"Lars, you're smart but they still have Lisa..." Lincoln reminded him.
"Pfft half the time Lisa is a neutral party in..." Lars said but then he began to think.
"Look lars I'm sure Lola will start to feel bad and will apologize to you later, there's no need to escalate the situation" Lincoln said.
"uh, yea, no yea... I'm sure you're right" Lars replied
Lincoln could tell by the smirk on Lars face that his was far from over, but he prayed for the best and began to relax himself on his bed.
4 hours later
The sisters walked in the Loud House with Lori, Leni, & Lisa in tears.
"I LITERALLY can NOT believe Blake Bradley's character died of cancer" Lori sniffled
"This totes like what happened on VOM, except he didn't come back"
Lisa begins to wail in sadness "I usually don't allow myself to be emotionally manipulated by such overdramatic motion pictures, but.." Lisa continues wailing.
"pfft, well I thought the movie was softer then lincoln, I mean what female wants such an emotional man" Lynn barked
"It's called being romantic LYNNN" Lola shot back.
"I rather enjoyed the movie, although the funeral scene could've been done more beautifully" Lucy offered her opinion.
"Whatever, I need to go catch some Z's to regain an ounce of toughness"
"Lynn you understand you're a female correct? Losing a little testosterone won't hurt you" Lisa replied back
"Whatever Lis I don't speak nerd" Lynn said as she walked into her room with Lucy
All the sisters prepared for bed and went into their seperate rooms.
"hmmm everyone seems to be in there rooms, now would be the perfect time to talk to her" Lars thought to himself putting his phone is his pocket and getting up from his bed.
"Where are you going" Lincoln asked while still reading his comic, not really caring.
"Oh um, I need to talk to someone real quick" Lars muttered as he started walking out their room.
"Mmmm ok" Lincoln responded not really paying attention.
Lars found his way to Lisa and Lily's room, he knocked on their door.
"who is it?" Lisa asked
"It's me Lis" Lars whispered
"Ahh please let yourself in elder male sibling unit" Lisa replied
Lars opened the door and let himself in.
"What do I owe this pleasent visit to?" Lisa asked.
"uhm well... I wanted to talk to you about something?" Lars answered
"And what would that be? Does it have anything to do with your outburst earlier?" Lisa asked while fidling with some viles containing chemicals
"Kinda. I hope you know most of that rant wasn't directed towards you, although the whole family would probably prefer you not test experiments on us" Lars finished
"Well I appreciate you saying that elder brother that can't be all you cam to discuss" Lisa retorted
"to beat to the point, as a neutral party in this house I figured you wouldn't mind helping me with a scheme" Lars said nervously starring away.
"Hmmm interesting... What kind of scheme are we talking about" Lisa inquired.
"I don't really know to be honest, I just want to get a point across to the other girls" Lars answered with surety.
"A point regarding their selfish nature and habit of leaving you and lincoln out of our sister rituals? Lisa asked
"Uhm yeah... that's... Pretty much it." Lars said, shocked she was able to figure that much out, but then again this was Lisa we're talking about.
Lisa was sympathetic towards her elder brother, while sometimes she also participated in ganging up on her male siblings and taking advantage of their number, but she could relate to Lars, she respected his intellect to a degree but she wasn't sure if waging some prank or scheme against the others was a good method to get his point across, I mean that of stuff only works on Lincoln...
"Okay I'll help you elder sibling" Lars' face lit up with happiness "but only so I can make sure this situation gets resolved properly without it backfiring on you and by proxy Lincoln" Lisa finished.
"Deal. Just like I told Lincoln, with me and now you there's no way any plan can backfire. Let's brainstorm"
To be continued...
