The New Lincoln Loud

When I looked around after waking up, I saw a completely unfamiliar room to the one I remember, before I even had time to panic an avalanche of memories flooded my mind.

unlike what you would expect, it didn't hurt at all, it was like going over a subject you knew before but eventually forgot,

that's how I realized that I had become Lincoln Loud.

As I got up from the bed in which I was lying, I could already see the reflection of the new body I would have from now on.

In my past life I was called Lincoln cruz, unlike this Lincoln who had food on the table, a roof over my head and a school to attend with peace of mind, I was not so lucky.

I lived with my mother most of my childhood, but my "mother" was just a drunken whore who didn't even give me the minimum not to die.

Because of problems at home, I had problems at school, and because of problems at school I had problems at home, not because I was a bad student, on the contrary, but because my mother did not provide me with anything, I had to get a job.

but since my mother didn't provide me with anything, I had to get it myself, so I started working at a very young age, and thanks to that I didn't have time to invest in school, but thanks to the teachers who were good people and helped me to graduate.

the last thing from my previous life that i remember is that, on my way home from college i ran into a psycho guy, slaughtering all the people on the street, including me.

I think I remember little flashes of me talking to someone else before I woke up, but maybe it was just a dream.

The next second, I woke up in an unfamiliar bed, in an unfamiliar room.

Looking at the body I would have from now on, I felt a little discouraged, because although I had been reborn, this body was barely healthy, a skinny and pale body, very different from my previous body, years of work rewarded me with a body quite marked.

I really need to start exercising this body, I thought as I began to look around and think about the Lincoln memories of this world.

Apparently. i live in a family of 13.

this body's mother, Rita loud, this body's father Lynn loud, and 11 older sisters, Lori Loud age 16, Leni Loud age 15, Luna Loud age 14, Luan Loud age 13, and Lynn Loud age 12,

He also had 4 younger sisters, Lucy Loud, 10 years old, Lana Loud, 8 years old, Lola Loud, 8 years old, and Lisa Loud, 4 years old,

from what I could see from Lincoln's memories, his relationship with his sisters was not the best but it wasn't bad either, being in a family of only women he naturally felt somewhat excluded, that's why he had a very good relationship with his father, Lynn Loud, since he was the only man besides himself.

But her father had to work from early morning until late at night to support such a large family, so they didn't have much time to spend together, although he tried to make up for it whenever he had free time by playing games and doing fun things with his children.

Rita was a very nurturing woman with her children, but is not afraid to punish them if they go too far. She is a good mother but also works to help Lynn with the household bills, although she recently got pregnant again and is staying home on leave.

Lori was in the rebellious stage of her teenage years, which is sometimes a headache for everyone, she often had confrontations with her mother as she didn't understand the things her mother did out of concern for her.

Leni was just a child with mildly elevated ADHD, which means that the family treated her as a slow child who had no talent for learning things and unfortunately no one in the family knew that.

Luna is a wild and joyful girl. She is the loudest sister of the whole family. She likes music, especially rock.

Luan loves to play pranks on her siblings and often makes puns for every situation.

Lynn enjoys playing every sport in existence; be it soccer, basketball, baseball, etc. She is very proficient in some martial arts such as kickboxing, Mexican wrestling and parkour.

Lucy is a sad, cynical, expressionless, and mysterious gothic girl as she almost always wears a stoic gesture. She is interested in the occult, poetry and the works of authors such as Poe and Lovecraft. She has an uncanny ability to appear in different places by surprise,

Lana is an unfeminine girl, in contrast to her twin's personality. She loves to play and likes to get her hands very dirty with mud. She also has fascinations towards activities, like playing with mud and frogs.

Lola is vain and spoiled, and dresses like a princess. Lola's interests include all things feminine, she is the living stereotype of a spoiled child.

Lisa, despite being only 3 years old, is already showing signs of being a prodigy, starting to formulate words easily, even Lincoln was teaching her how to read, and although she still has a long way to go, it is clear that she will be very intelligent in the future.

Lincoln, on the other hand was a typical pre-teen who was bullied at school, a skinny kid with many social difficulties, few friends and whose only hobby was reading comics and watching Japanese cartoons, which made it difficult for him to connect with other people who did not have the same hobby as him, including his own family, making him more isolated every day.

as chaotic as this family was and as isolated as he was, Lincoln really loved these people because in the end they were probably the only ones who would attend his funeral.

When he died, I have a memory of how he wanted things to be better.

"You can rest easy, I will make sure they get the life they deserve, I promise..." I said softly, as a sense of relief ran through my body, probably Lincoln's last goodbye.

As I could see through the window that it was still dark outside, I picked up my phone to check the time.

[4:13 am]

Maybe I can start improving this body today, I thought with interest.

although I was not a Gymrat in my past life I knew enough, although my body was not super muscular thanks to the lack of nutrients I had a pretty healthy body.

I don't think I can ride a bike without waking anyone up, but I can start running, I thought, I'm going to start a new life from today.

as I made my decision, I started to get dressed in the most comfortable clothes I had in my closet.

I left my room on my tiptoes and opened and closed the doors carefully so as not to wake anyone, the first thing I did was to go to the bathroom to relieve myself and brush, before heading to the kitchen in search of a bottle of water to take my walk.

When I arrived, I was surprised at what I saw.

my father was at the kitchen table, staring at a handful of papers, which I assumed were bills, with a tired expression as he held a rather heavy coffee in his other hand,

When he heard my footsteps, I could see the surprise on his face as he quickly tried to hide the papers from me, probably afraid that I would discover the family's financial problems.

"hey linc, are you awake yet or did you stay up late playing? "my new father asked me, trying to pretend to be indifferent.

I pretended not to notice his concerns and tried to answer in a natural way.

"I just woke up, I'm not sleepy so I decided to take a walk" I tried to speak without the submissive tone of the Lincoln of this world or my old rude way of speaking, something I always try to change.

If I had to rely on the social experience of the Lincoln of this world to have a conversation, I couldn't say more than 2 words without stuttering, fortunately I had some friends in my past life that kept me from being a total withdrawer.

The problem was that all my friends were older people or people like me, so our way of talking was much more rude than usual, which was fine if we insulted each other, but anyone else would find unpleasant.

As much as I tried to act like the Lincoln of this world, I know it would be easily noticed, so I'll just talk however I feel like, maybe they'll associate it with puberty or something.

I could notice a slight surprise on my father's face when he saw me talking so much without getting stuck.

"that's good, son, I don't think I've ever seen you wearing that shirt your mother gave you, it looks great on you" He said with barely concealed enthusiasm as he stood up and grabbed two slices of bread from the toaster.

He took the two pieces of toast and spread them with jam, and as he put one in his mouth he offered the other to me.

I was surprised at the concern he was showing for me, and he seemed happy with little interactions like this.

Maybe the time he works is really affecting him more than I imagined.

I sat across the table from him and ate my toast and milk with him.

but since I didn't know what to say, and apparently, neither did he, we both sat in silence while we ate.

Although no one spoke while we ate, I felt quite comfortable with just the presence of another person.

It's quite nice to eat with someone else, I thought in my mind.

And from the smile I saw on my father's face, it was clear he thought the same thing.

(I shamelessly stole this from another fic, blame me).

------Lynn father comment-----------

Sitting on the couch in front of the camera, nervous, Lynn didn't know how to act.

"I was surprised to see Lincoln awake so early in the morning, normally he is the one who sleeps the most among all his sisters, he even talks normally without slurring, it's been quite a while since we talked... it's quite nice to have breakfast with another person" Lynn finished with a small smile on her face.

------end comment-----------------

When I finished my meal I washed my plate and got ready to leave.

"I'm going for a walk... "I said not knowing what else to say.

my dad smiled as he replied "all right, have fun linc".

"enjoy your day" I shouted before closing the front door to the porch.

moving a scrawny body was more difficult than I was used to, I tried to run but tired quickly in less than 10 seconds, so I quickly switched to a lighter jog that allowed me to run longer distances, with some breaks in between of course.

after 10 minutes I could feel my lungs feel like they were on fire.

after 15 minutes I could feel my legs give out.

Only a minute later I could feel like if I took one more step I could faint straight away, and seeing that I had already covered 1 km, I took a 5 minute break before continuing.

Although 5 minutes might seem like a long time, I was still very tired when I started jogging again, although this time I didn't stop to rest.

By the time I reached the thirty minute mark I could feel my legs visibly shaking, even another runner pointed it out to me earlier!

[DEX +1]

"huh?" what was that?.

[Mission: walk 5 km]

Rewards:

1 CON, status window

Accept]]

looking at the blue screen in front of me,

"a gold finger? I thought I didn't have one" I thought as I started to get excited.

I knew exactly what it was, as I had read enough novels where the MC had a system like this, so I was very excited.

Deal with it, I thought making the window disappear from my sight.

When I thought about opening it again, the screen appeared again with the progress of the mission, apparently it counted the km I walked before, so I only had to run 3 km and I would have completed the mission.

as soon as the window disappeared again I focused my eyes and started jogging to finish the remaining km quickly.

After walking 1 km more I could feel my legs asking for a rest urgently, but this time I refused to rest, I had to finish this.

my resistance was terrible, I was sweating all over and tired but I refused to give in.

After 50 minutes I received another notification.

At this point, I was so tired that I barely paid attention to it, but I kept walking and tried to read the notification.

To my surprise much of my fatigue began to disappear,

it didn't disappear completely, but my body was screaming that I could do more, the fatigue that was killing me before was now no longer my limit.

With that I looked at the screen again and I was very happy with the result.

[Dex]

Smiling, I kept running through the neighborhood until an hour and twenty minutes had passed and I was finally able to complete 5 km!

[Mission: walk 5 km

Rewards:

+1 CON, access to status window.

Completed!

Accept rewards?]

as soon as the mission notification popped up, I couldn't even see ahead clearly, it was as if all the energy that kept me standing had suddenly disappeared and my body started to carom into the grass.

Not only did my body ache, it felt like someone was squeezing my head, I think it was because I didn't have enough oxygen for my body.

After taking a deep breath, I managed to focus my eyes and accept the reward.

[CON+1]

[status window activated, take a look at it!]

'At last!' I thought excitedly as the CON point relieved some of the fatigue I was feeling.

[New skill acquired: aerobic exercise lv1]

[aerobic exercise Lv1: Performing aerobic exercise increases the user's metabolic rate by 1% for 24 hours].

seeing that I could also gain skills. i was quite surprised.

Shaking my head from the thoughts I had in my head now that I knew I could gain skills, for a moment I thought about running again to level up this skill, but I quickly put that thought out of my head.

As tired as I was, it would be completely useless, so I got up from the grass I was lying on and walked home as slowly as I could,

as it was quite far from home it took me another full hour to get back home,

It was 6:10 when I arrived at the porch of the house practically dragging my feet, I completely forgot to calculate the distance, so I had to walk 5 km back home and my whole body was screaming for a rest, my lungs again felt on fire.

As it was already so early it wasn't long before my mother was up as well as the early bird sisters.

'I'd better shower soon' I thought as I forced my body up the stairs, which I thought could be classified as a method of torture.

I made an effort to get to the bathroom quickly as I knew how things would get once all the sisters were awake, and I didn't feel like fighting just to use the bathroom.

When I got to the bathroom, I was surprised.

In the reflection of the mirror, although I had no muscles in the muscles, I could easily notice that they were beginning to develop in my body, and I was a little more handsome ... this just for 2 hours of training....

I thought to myself as I flexed my arms a little in front of the mirror, looking at my dry hair and dead ends.

looking at my dry hair and my dead ends, I started to cut my hair with the scissors that were in front of the mirror, nothing too elaborate just cut the ends of my hair and styled it a little bit to make it look more natural,

I knew a little bit about hair care because in my past life I liked to wear it long, so I tried to learn how to take care of it.

[Acquired skill: hair care lv14]

[by cutting/caring for someone's hair they have +22% chance of pleasing the beholder].

upon receiving this notification, I was excited, as I could acquire skills I got in my old life with a bonus thanks to the system.

What used to be long, dry, dead hair was now shorter and the dead parts were cut off so that they did not negatively affect the aesthetics.

Even though I still had to recreate the haircut I had in my old life, I don't dislike this style at all, besides white hair was one of my favorites and thanks to Lincoln's albinism now I have it too,

looking at my reflection, I was quite pleased, plus the cut added a temporary CHA point,

Despite being temporary points I had no problem with cutting it from time to time.

thinking about where he could easily acquire new skills, he came up with a site where a lot of people gathered to share them to people for free.

what in this world they called meTube, was practically YouTube within a few years after its launching

something that few people had access to and only with their niche audience, something that I could use to benefit from my knowledge.

but my thoughts were cut off by a knock on Lori's door.

"Come on Lincoln, you've been in there long enough, I need to use the bathroom too."

knowing the challenge of interacting with new people I took one last look at my status window.
