Nah, I'm Good 13
Disclaimers I don't own the Loud House please support any to all official releases.
After a more than calm and peaceful reunion with Luan, Lincoln began to prepare for incase of Lynn or Luna when they decide to drop by and visit.
Granted a part of him wants to cave in, while another part wants to hire a private mercenary unit to watch his apartment complex and prevent the remaining 2 sisters to arrive, especially since Luna has been officially banned from setting foot in the UK after her wall of death put 10 people in the hospital with at least another 100 more injured from the event.
Right now he was waiting patiently for his new steal gated, retinal scan door to arrive along with a certain group of builders to help fortify his walls to reduce sound later on today.
Right now he was just getting back from checking the apartment pool he had set up so that the only few tenants he had renting out can now swim in a perfectly leveled and maintain pool if they feel like it.
"All right, now that, that's done, I can finally go upstairs and make myself a nice peanut butter sauerkraut sandwich" said Lincoln as he began to walk towards his apartment only to feel the floors tremble a little.
"What in the name of-" said Lincoln out loud as the trembles began to get louder and larger as his face dropped and his eyes widen.
"Oh fuck me, why!?" exclaimed Lincoln as he began to race up the stairs to his apartment building as he knew why the ground was quaking, especially now that he hears music accompanying it.
"Come on it's only been 2 days since my last date" jeered Lincoln not knowing that he never did plan a sibling date with Luan, much less with his remaining sisters to begin with, so them coming over and crashing by was literally at their whims of notice.
Wasting no time in barricading his door, from everything from his couch, his TV stand, and a few chairs, Lincoln crossed his fingers that this was enough for him to retain himself a strong enough shield from Luna's potential B&E.
He heard a knock at his door, but he remained quiet and held his breath in fear that Luna might hear him.
To make his situation just so ironically futile, his phone went off with a loud ring as Lily was trying to call him at this moment.
In a desperate panic Lincoln chucked his phone into the kitchen wall and saw how the screen crack, turning his mobile into nothing more than a piece of fiberglass and scrap electronics.
It was too late as a loud bass rift can be heard outside that seemed to blast not only Lincoln's door into wood chippings, but blasted him and his undamaged furniture into the kitchen.
Only to let out a pained groan, Lincoln saw a pair black work shoes, which lead up to a pair of purple jeans, leading to a black shirt and purple denim vest combo with a neck lined covered in tattoo's and an oh so familiar face of Luna, exception she had long straight brown hair reaching down her upper back and was wearing those John Lennon sunglasses to boot.
"Hey Lincoln, how's my little sprog of a brother, now turned into a dashing young chap, doing" asked Luna in her oh so notorious British accent as she carried with her what looked like a turntable turned into a damn weapon of mass destruction.
"That the blast of whatever the hell you hit me with made me permanently deaf" groaned Lincoln, "Now why would you ask to afflicted with such a terribly ailment, after how are we to chat like proper adults and possibly go see SMOOCH later on tonight if you can't hear a thing" asked Luna.
"Learn sign language or something, also could you please drop the British accent already, you're being culturally insensitive" stated Lincoln, "Oh how you and our sisters wish there was an off switch, however I've been living my whole life in the UK for some time now that, me and my duckies are stuck talking like this forever" said Luna with a smug smile.
"Of course you are" sighed Lincoln with a face palm, "Also sorry for about the door love, I'd like to offer to pay for the damages, but honestly I'm borderline broke here" admitted Luna, "At least you were honest about that, now do me a solid and leave already, I'm expecting some guys to come over with a new door anyways" said Lincoln.
"Why so cold now love, I'm hear to rock the house with my little brother, who has been so kind enough to treat our sisters like ladies, and I expect the same kind of treatment. After all you're a gentlemen, and I of course a lady, oh~ woah~ oh~ I'm a lady" said Luna.
"Yeah, being a lady implies dressing and acting the part, you look like you haven't showered in a week and would rather crash a small band venue while demanding free beer from the bar" said Lincoln.
"Hey now, I've decided to dress the most modest I could from my current wardrobe which is far more less couth than you can imagine, also I only showered 3 days ago" said Luna defensively.
"That's… not even better nor helping your situation" said Lincoln as he stuck his tongue out.
"Besides I'm not even into SMOOCH any more, especially since the lead singer was revealed to be a petty old man who's from a forgotten bygone era of rock music who tried to slam Brutallica" said Lincoln, "Yeah I remember that, besides Brutallica rules with a 'z'" said Luna.
"Ok let's skip the rock concert, we can go explore the town red and paint it all in music; my music to be specific" said Luna, "Or we could just forget this ever happened" said Lincoln.
"Lincoln I don't know how to tell you this, but our sisters have always, and I mean always been in collaborating cahoots from the start, or do I need to keep flexing this bass cannon Lisa was kind enough to build" said Luna.
"You know I sorta had a feeling Lisa might have had a hand in building that noise polluting device, and now that you've let the biggest secret out of the bag, I think I'm gonna have to do something I really hoped you girls never pushed me into doing" said Lincoln as he began to take out his phone and was ready to message all of his sisters that their relationship is now over and that he never wants to see them again.
"Hold it there mate, you can't be ready to just shut our sisters out of your life, at least not without us enjoying our date first" said Luna, "Watch me" said Lincoln.
Being the patient one in this interaction, Luna decided to take matters into her own hand when she took her bass cannon and hit her brother in the back of his head, causing him to be out for the count.
"Now why'd you have to make me go and do that now love" said Luna as she clicked her tongue, before proceeding to drag her brother into her bus, taking him to god knows where.
Later
Waking up in the back of the bus, Lincoln realized he was sleeping on a bed lined with vinyl records and players, bottles of booze and beer, various forms of recreational drugs, and dirty clothes lined about, which speaking of, Lincoln realized he was sleeping on a pair of purple leopard print brazier.
Removing the piece of undergarments aside, Lincoln made his way out the room as he traveled his way to the front of the moving bus as he ignored it's detail before he made a seat next to Luna.
"Rise and shine, sunshine" said Luna in a cheerful tone, "You didn't have to knock me out and kidnap me like that" said Lincoln as he sat in the passenger seat.
"I think I had to, though hey if you still feel tempted to break things off with our sisters, now's the time since we're pretty much committed to see this date through" said Luna as she soon found herself regretting her words.
Without skipping a beat, Lincoln sent a group family text that he not only doesn't want to see his family anymore, but that he now forever disowns them.
"Wow, I was hoping you'd calm down and not do it" said Luna, "You knocked me out, kidnapped me, and admitted that our sisters have been scheming all of this from the start, just let's get this date over with so I can go home and enjoy my life of solace for the rest of my existence" said Lincoln snidely.
"Sigh, well hopefully after what I've got planned you'll have a change of heart by then" said Luna as she continued to drive them to their destination.
Their destination was at a spot up the mountains, which threw Lincoln in for a loop as he was expecting to be still dragged towards another rock concert or some sort of British themed restaurant.
"Ok, here we are" said Luna as she was the first to exit the bus, with Lincoln following her shortly thereafter.
"So we're here now, now what" asked Lincoln, "Now we just chill and talk" said Luna as she pulled out a flask from her vest and took a swig of whatever was in it.
"Really" asked Lincoln in disbelief, "Truly, you want a sip" asked Luna as she offered her flask towards her brother.
"I'm good thank you" said Lincoln, "Suit yourself" said Luna as she pulled out a case of cigarettes and a fancy lighter.
"Interested in smoking a fag" asked Luna with the cigarette in her mouth, "Excuse me" asked Lincoln as he was certain Luna said that was definitely homophobic till she pointed the cigarette in her mouth.
"No thank you, I'd rather smoke George Bush" said Lincoln, "Didn't everyone, at least till Trump stepped in" said Luna, "Hardy har har".
"In all seriousness though, I actually don't like smoking anything that's not tobacco, and not because you think it's because it's a British thing, but rather I'm pretty mellowed out as it is anymore and I'd be doing nothing but lie about and do nothing" said Luna.
"Yeah well we Gen Z kids might have lived in the shadows of millennials, but they're at least made it so that life for us was more easy and comfortable and set the standard of smoking pot and not living life as a try hard" said Lincoln.
"Really, is that how you lived your life? Oh what am I saying, that's what your probably did, never have to work a day in your life given how you single handedly ran the monopoly of Crypto and NFT's before anyone could get on the band wagon" said Luna.
"Hey I don't want to hear that from you, the person who made me invest a million dollars on your first music videos, who paid for all the high end limited edition rock equipment that wasn't from a thrift store, and whom I've literally caught stealing 100,000 dollars from my account so you could spend a whole year between you and Sam traveling the world enjoying every live show that Mick Swagger was touring that year, and you had the gall to lie to my face that you did no such thing" said Lincoln angrily.
"All right, you're right, I have no right to judge, and I should definitely apologize for my behavior from back then, in fact if I'm completely honest with you, I'm working hard to make amends with everyone, ranging from my old band manager, my early backstage groupies and fans, my old friend Chunk, hell my kids mate" said Luna as she took a long drag from her cigarette.
"But before I can go about doing that, I figured I'd start from the beginning by apologizing to the one person whom I wronged the most before my life to stardom, so here we are, just want to get everything off our chests and let it all out here in the middle of nowhere while enjoying the pending sunset, which isn't due for few hours from now" said Luna.
"So what, you thought by taking me all the way out here, we could scream all the rage that we've been carrying at the top of the mountain and be done with it" said Lincoln, "Well yeah, and as simplistic and ridiculous you could argue it is, trust me, it's the simple things in life that makes it much easier to cope with life itself" said Luna.
"I'm glad that you found some form of spiritual sanctity after all the shit you probably screwed yourself into over the years, but this doesn't work for me, in fact if you would have learned to keep your mouth shut, you probably would've done our sisters a favor of not screwing them over" said Lincoln.
"Hey I came here to be honest and apologize for everything I've done, even if it means I'll be disowned by our sisters by the end of today" said Luna, "Well you screwed that up too, goodbye Luna, it's been horrible and thank you for reminding me" said Lincoln as he was willing to hike his way back down off this mountain.
"Lincoln wait!" shouted Luna as she got up and chased after her brother.
"I'm only going to say this once and I genuinely mean it when I say that I'm sorry for everything I did to you throughout your young adult life and for leaving a bad image about our sisters, but you seriously don't have to cut ties with them, they don't deserve it, and if you want nothing to do with me for the rest of your life, so be it, I'll accept my punishment, but don't punish our sisters cause we all have good intentions to making this work again" said Luna.
"And that's the damn problem, it's always out of good intentions from you girls, especially towards me, when I have to deal with the short end of any drama the situation had called from it, be it how I gave up my peaceful moments of alone time to either help break up the fights from our little sisters, or serving as some man servant for all my big sisters" began Lincoln as he turned to look Luna dead in the eye.
"Was it out of good intentions that I had to deal with your girls meddling for a false love life I had, or how your sister fight protocols didn't require any input or involvement from me or our parents, or whenever I suggested something fun or something beneficial for all of us to do, you girls are always quick to reject my ideas" continued Lincoln.
"Tell me, do these dates I've been having with each and one of you have a truly positive benefit, a happy ending, a damn pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, or is it nothing more than for you girls to have a clean conscience after how you've all knowingly abused me to the point of living my life as a rich, pampered, entitled, spoiled asshole who has trust issues with everyone he knew and anyone else he'll ever know, or social brownie points, because good intentions alone aren't gonna do any good for you as it does me!" yelled Lincoln as Luna remained calm and heard her brother out this whole time.
"Well tell me, is there more than good intentions or not" demanded Lincoln, "I don't think I need to tell you the answer, after all you've been through that should be a good enough answer, or are you going to let this moment stain every newly fond memory you had made over the past month" said Luna as she took one more drag from her cigarette.
"You know what Luna, fuck you and that smart ass answer of yours, and another thing, you can go and tell our sisters how bad you royally fucked things up for all of us, cause guess what, I want nothing to do with any of you girls so long as I live. Goodbye and go fuck yourself for the last time" said Lincoln as he turned and gave his sister the finger.
Snubbing out her cigarette from her mouth, Luna sat back over the edge of the mountain and stared off into the distance for the next few hours before finally calling her sisters and letting them know how things went.
Obviously they were all enraged and each and everyone of them had wasted no time in trying to reach out to Lincoln, but he never picked up, not even for Lily, much to her horror.
That night marked a truly dark moment for the Loud sisters as the first time around it happened under their noses since a lot of them were going on with their lives, but this time, after all the hard work they went through to get this far, only for it to fall apart, really hit them where it hurt the most as a few them spent their night damning Luna, while a few turned on each other, but they all spent the night crying in their sleep.
All but one at least.
Even though her chances are slim and that she might aggravate her brother into calling the cops with her presence alone, there stood one lone sister who was determined to finally reach out and face her brother and hope that her words could get him to forgive them and be given one more chance, because the fate that they now left their brother to live would kill them a lot faster than it would kill himself.
There you go guys, there's the turning point drama we've all been waiting for, and right before I got distracted by any new games or anime that I'll more focused on in the weeks to come.
As always please be sure to fave and follow if you like it, but more importantly please leave me your guys' thoughts on this chapter since a lot has happened, and we're only 2 chapters away before we finally complete this story at long last before I got to focus on some of my other work.
So until next time, be safe, be good people, and please support your local fandom communities.
