Title: "Loud House: Life Story"
Possible Rating(s): T or M (maybe K+)
(Inspired by Flagg1991's "Reeling in the Years")
Synopsis: What if the Loud House universe moved in real time? What if the Loud Siblings and every other character aged naturally? What if they lived through real life events like we are? What would be different in this more realistic take of the show?
This story would be very interesting to see, though difficult since some episodes from the show would happen very differently or not happen at all (depending on importance), while some still happen.
The story itself will start off in 2016 and go from there with the Loud Siblings starting off with their Pre-Season 5 ages. And with each year, they age by one. (Lincoln is 11 in 2016, 12 in 2017, 13 in 2018, 14 in 2019, and 15 in 2020).
Also, one of the older siblings would graduate from High School and go to college leaving the sibling after then the new "Older, Responsible sibling of the house".
As for the seasons (there being five with a sixth in development), they'll all have to fit in the timespan of 2016 to 2020. No, each season doesn't have to count as a year as they can mix together. Since the show itself doesn't have a solid timeline, some episodes might've happened out of air order (i.e. L is for Love could've taken place before No Such Luck, for all we know).
The most important thing about this story is its need of a strong continuity with no cartoon physics. Meaning if someone gets hurt or grounded in one chapter, that can possibly carry on to the next.
Some episodes that aired in the most recent seasons would happen earlier too. For example, Schooled! would take place in 2017 where Lincoln is 12 years old.
This story will also not have to rely on episodes from the show as original adventures could be made for it!
2020 would be an awkward, but interesting year to do. How would Lynn Jr (17) react to Kobe Bryant's death? How would Lincoln (15) feel with having to start his Freshman year of high school in front of a laptop? Would any of the family members become sick with Covid-19?
Relationships will also evolve in this story too. For example, Lincoln and Ronnie Anne will have a small thing between each other before the latter leaves for Great Lakes City (supposedly in 2016 or '17) which ends their relationship quick. Will Lincoln find someone else? And for Lori, she could get engaged to Bobby sometime after she leaves for college (between years 2017-'19). And since this story would have a heavily altered history of these characters, Luan could've dated Maggie first before moving towards Benny(Of course, this is the choice of whoever decides to take this).
That's all I really have for this. I hope I didn't make this seem too complicated for everyone. If your interested, take this story and make your own spin to it.
