Without Sin: All Star Edition

Without Sin: All Star Edition is a The Loud House fanfic written by Catspeaker with Collaboration from FicAlthusserist.

After a science experiment conducted by Lisa Loud goes wrong, Lincoln Loud swaps places with an alternate version of himself from another universe where he and his sisters have children with each other. As Lisa tries to fix the problem, Lincoln must fulfill the role of the father for his alternate self’s ten different children, along with dealing with their ten sexually devious mothers.

The story was inspired by Red Herald, another fanfic author, work of the same name (minus the “All Star Edition” subtitle). Originally the author abandoned the fic, and stated on his fanfiction.net profile that if he did not come back to update by September 2021 any of his stories were up for adoption. While FicAlthusserist wanted to do a direct continuation, Catspeaker suggested they start from the beginning and write their own version of the story.

Tropes used in Without Sin: All Star Edition include:

Aborted Arc: The twist of Zach being the Hunter that's been stalking the Sinverse Louds was dropped early due both authors deciding the identity of the character was too obvious
Adaptational Badass: Both Lincolns are this. Safehouse has practiced Mixed Martial Arts and can take down guys three times his body weight, While Sinverse is a former Peace Corp member, who has seen and experienced enough violence to convince him to live out life as a pacifist.
Affectionate Nickname: Sinverse Lincoln refers to his Safehouse counterpart as “Bad Ending Lincoln.”
Age Lift: Unlike most interpretations of the Sin Kids, all of them seem to be under the age of 18 in this fic. Most notably Loan, She's usually depicted as being 21 (Like in the fanfic What She'd Been Missing), whereas in this story, she's 17.^{[please verify]}
Alliterative Name: In the Sinverse, all of the Sin Kids are given a four letter name starting with L, much like their parents before them.
- Averted with the Safe House, where the sisters' children are given more dynamic names.
Becoming the Mask: Safehouse Lincoln starts to enjoy being the sin kids’ father after spending time with them, even starts enjoying the company of some of the sisters. It has come to the point where he has to actively remind himself they’re not actually his family!
Belligerent Sexual Tension: Safehouse Lincoln could be this to all of the Sinverse Loud sisters; as girls often make various types of sexual advances on him (whether it’s attempting to shower with him, to dressing in skimpy cosplay for his amusement), he’s the one that has to conjure all his inner strength to turn them down.
Brother-Sister Incest: The Sinverse’s main focal point is how Lincoln had kids with (almost) all his sisters.
The Bully: Hank and Hawk make an appearance in chapter 13, arriving at the Burpin’ Burger Lincoln manages just to harass him and his customers.
Calling the Old Man Out: Lemy tries to do this to his father in chapter 2.
Cassandra Truth: Yes, Sinverse Lincoln is the uncle to all of the loud sisters’ children… but he’s also their dad at the same time!
Central Theme: The topic of focusing on your career versus focusing on your family frequently occurs throughout the story (Fame v.s Family). The Safehouse and Sinverse Louds represent these ideas to their extreme degrees, and both Lincolns even reflect on these ideas while occupying their opposing universe.
Chick Magnet: Sinverse Lincoln, as a given. According to Safehouse Lisa, her Lincoln could have the potential to be this, assuming both Lincolns share the same anatomy.
Child by Rape: The method of how the Sin Kids in the Sinverse were born. For example, Lori was 18 and Lincoln was 12 when Loan was first conceived, and it was all downhill from there.
Continuity Nod: The fic makes direct references to past episodes of the Loud house, even referencing the movie on some occasions.
Daddy's Girl: All the sin kids view their father in a positive light, excluding Lemy.
Darker and Edgier: Being a sin kids fanfic, this is to be expected. The story does not shy away from giving the Loud siblings condemnable habits. Whether it’s open polyamorous relationships, shameless prostitution, the usual incest, or even realistic grooming scenarios, Catspeaker and FicAlthusserist aren’t pulling as many punches in terms of making such a concept more immersive. Despite everything, it doesn’t go as far the original did in deconstructing the narrative.
A Date with Rosie Palms: Sinverse Lincoln does this when scrolling through his safehouse sisters’ social media, especially Lola’s pictogram page.
Dimensional Traveler: Both Lincolns become this unintentionally. Safehouse Lincoln was supposed to simply teleport from the basement to the neighbor’s backyard, but ended up being sent to another dimension entirely, while Sinverse Lincoln was the one to be teleported to Safehouse Neighbor’s backyard.
Disappeared Dad: What everyone assumes happened to the new Loud kids in the sinverse, only for their “uncle Lincoln to step up as their father figure.
- Sinverse technically becomes this onces he’s transported to the safehouse Yate’s backyard.
- Zigzagged in Safehouse; when Lincoln got Ronnie Anne pregnant when she was 19, she decided to leave Lincoln due to him showing more interest in pursuing his artistic career than raising a family. Chapter 15 reveals Ronnie Anne gave the baby to Lori and Bobby for them to raise, without any of her influence.
Double Consciousness: Sinverse Lincoln, as well as the rest of the Loud family, must maintain the façade of an Uncle who happily adopted the Loud sisters’ children as their father, and hide the fact that he’s actually the biological father of all the kids and they’re literally products of incest.
- Once the two Lincolns swap places, they must play the role of each other’s lifestyle to avoid suspicion, while waiting for both of their Lisas to find a way to swap them back. Although in Sinverse's case, all he needs to do is stay indoors and not draw too much attention to himself.
Everyone Has Standards: The Sinverse parents all agreed to “NOT” go after their own children. Sinverse Lily seems to have broken this promise as revealed in chapter 13.
Feminine Women Can Cook: Liena is one of the main chefs in the sinverse house.

In-Series Nickname: Throughout the story, anything related to the seemingly normal dimension and the one with the sin kids are referred to with the prefixes Safehouse and Sinverse respectively.
Irony: It’s revealed that Safehouse Lincoln, who is constantly pushing away the Sinverse Loud sisters’ sexual advances towards him, has deeply repressed sexual/romantic urges towards his own sisters. Whether it be Lynn giving him an attraction towards Tomboys, or Lola giving him “questionable” pictures of herself that he ends up flogging his dolphin to.
Like Brother and Sister: The Sin Kids all treat each other like this despite only being half siblings. Although the incest part might making up for the other half...

Promotion to Parent:
- Safehouse Lincoln must fulfill this role when he swaps places with Sinverse Lincoln.
- Lyra and Liena can be considered this on some level.
Reasonable Authority Figure: Most of the adults come off as this. Special mention to sinverse Lana for not sexually harassing safehouse Lincoln immediately, unlike her twin Lola… until the end of chapter 10 that is.
Switching POV: While the narrative mostly follows the two Lincoln and their misadventures, the story will shift point of views to other characters relevant to the story.
Take That: The first Chapter mocks the comic book industry’s attempt to pander to those with no interest in the medium. i.e making Strong Suit trans to appeal to “modern audiences,” along with snubbing Lincoln for a writer's role in favor of hiring a Progressive political political activist with no experience or interest in comic books or their characters.
Undying Loyalty: Zigzagged. Some of the Sinverse Louds are more “loyal to the family” than others (in terms sex at least). Most notably Lincoln being exclusive to his sisters.
- Played straight for Safehouse Lincoln when it comes to Ronnie Anne. It’s been ten years since their break up and he still puts her on a pedestal. (No other girl he dated compares, according to him.)

- Averted with Safehouse Lincoln in chapter 13, where he uses his MMA experience his Lynn taught him to wipe the floor of Hank and Hawk.
Yandere: Sinverse Lily on some level. It seems what’s stopping her from getting any worse is Safehouse Lincoln showing her support and comfort.
