Welcome to Day 14: Gender swapped.
In this part of the story, Luan is her male counterpart, Lane Loud, while Benny is her female counterpart, Betsy.
Lane Loud was about to head over to Betsy's place when he saw Lincoln's female counterpart, Linka Loud.
If you saw, or at least heard of the episode, "One of the Boys", you'll get a sense of where Linka Loud came from.
"Hey Linky," Lane said.
"Hey Lane," Linka said. "What's with you today?"
Lane told her, "I'm off to go see Betsy. She'll just flip head over heels when I arrive".
Linka Loud thought that was cool of him.
"What about you?" Lane asked.
Linka told him that she was off to visit Steve, Stella's male counterpart.
Special thanks to Art by Thanasi and his deviantart page for the design of him.
"You think Steve will be pumped to see you?" Lane asked.
"I guess I won't know until I arrive there," Linka told him.
The 2 of them went downstairs to head out to see each one's respective friend. However, the second Linka opened the door, both she and Lane got the surprise of their lives.
Betsy and Steve were standing right in front of the doorway.
After saying hi to one another, Lane said, "I thought we were coming to see you."
Betsy commented, "Steve and I thought it would be cool if the 4 of us spent some time together".
Lane and Linka understood what they were saying and decided to go along with it.
As the 4 of them started to walk off, Linka asked, "so what is it we're gonna do today?"
Steve answered, "there's an episode of the Proud Family that I found. You guys wanna watch it with me?"
The others said yes.
With that, they all went over to Steve's house to watch "The Proud Family".
Over at Steve's house, they just finished watching that show.
"Man," Linka said. "I miss those types of shows".
Lane commented, "the way Penny stood up for gender rights was priceless".
"I'll say," Betsy replied. "It's always times like that where I wish more people would go out there and peacefully fight for a more gender equal game. You know, one where boys and girls can play on the same team".
Steve commented, "I know. That would make a lot of people around the world happy."
That was when Steve's grandfather came into the room.
One by one, the four of them said hi to Steve's grandfather.
"Greetings guys," Steve's grandfather said to them. "Are you guys watching 2000's cartoons?"
"Yeah," Betsy answered. "How did you know we were watching 2000's cartoons?"
Steve's grandfather found a DVD with a certain list of episodes of "As Told By Ginger".
He turned on one of the episodes for the kids to watch.
"What's this show?" Steve asked.
"As Told By Ginger," his grandfather answered. "I played Darren Patterson on the show. It has been a big ton of fun to do. It was like a fun career for me".
While watching one of the episodes, Steve's grandfather said to them, "that's me. Throughout the show's run, we would change into a different attire for every episode."
"How do you guys know what clothes to wear for that specific episode?" Steve asked.
His grandfather answered, "the people behind the scenes have the designs made in advance before taping the show".
The others thought it must be cool knowing something like that can actually happen in a cartoon.
Approximately 85 minutes later, Steve's grandfather said to them, "well, we better get going. Steve has a therapy appointment, and I don't want it being your fault he's late."
Betsy then said, "I better get going too. I don't want my mom getting too worried about where I run off too."
With that, Betsy, Steve and Steve's grandfather walked off. They all waved goodbye to one another.
Back at the Loud House, Lane and Linka were in the kitchen getting themselves some orange juice.
"You have a really cool friend, Linka," Lane said to her.
"Yours is cool too," Linka said to him.
"Thanks," Lane said. "I can't wait to hang with that one of a kind friend again."
"Yeah," Linka said.
The 2 of them continued on with their juicy drinks.
That ends Day 14: Genderswapped.
Next up is Day 15: In a different clothing style.
