Gal Pals(group)

The Gal Pals is a nickname for a group of female characters within the Loud House series. Though each of these girls come from different schools and some of them are older than the story's main protagonist, Lincoln Loud, over the course of the story, they become quite close to each other. It is because of their friendship/past encounters with Lincoln that they choose to act as a sort of "surrogate family" for him, while his biological family sorts out their own affairs.
Throughout the course of the story, their collective friendship with Lincoln starts simple, just chatting and hanging out. But as Lincoln struggles with his anxieties and other emotional issues, they take it upon themselves to help protect him, whatever the trials may be.
== History ==
=== The First Meeting ===
 Lincoln ran into Carol Pingery, Becky, and Whitney one night after trying to escape another Sister Fight Protocol-related event. Having escaped before dinner, he told the trio about what happened, and they felt sympathy for him. They decided to take him to Gus' Games and Grub thinking he could use food and a fun night. At the arcade, Jordan Rosato approached Lincoln and asked him what he was doing at Gus', only for his hunger to get the better of him, and they headed for their booths.
 At his booth, Lincoln discovered Stella, Cristina, Paige, Haiku, Kat, Cici, and Phoebe also being there, and so did the latter two, who brought up events that put him under pressure. He started panicking and entered a sorry state. After calming down, he told everyone about himself and his problems, including the Sister Fight Protocol, Luan's April Fools shenanigans, the bad luck incident, and his worries of their love for him, despite him maintaining HIS love for THEM. He attempted to leave Gus' no thanks to his curfew, but Jordan stopped him, she and everyone getting him via begging to stay. He agreed to it, and they invited him to spend a day with them at the park, promising to help him with his problems. Upon leaving the arcade, they would tell their families and other friends about Lincoln's problems.
=== The Park Day ===
At Ketchum Park, everyone was having a good time, though Jordan, who let Lincoln stay the night with her, had thought about what Lincoln was going through thanks to a nightmare he had about his sisters(as the Full House gang) coming after him. She told everyone about them and confirmed Lincoln to have created the Full House gang, earning a lot of praise from everyone, Carol's mother wondering how Lincoln's sisters would mistreat him even though he made them famous. Mrs. Rosato, having collected Lincoln's supplies and knowing what Mrs. Pingery is talking about, told everyone what she went through the other night in full detail, causing everyone to discuss what to do about the situation and what to do with Lincoln.
At lunchtime, everyone began discussing their Spring Break plans and got Lincoln in on them. Those plans included a trip to Dairyland, a spa day, a day at the Ace Savvy convention, a poetry reading at The Burnt Bean, a game of mini-golf at Hole-in-Onederland, another day at Ketchum Park but with a BBQ cookout this time, and a pool party at the Rosato household followed by a sleepover. Lincoln was excited to join, yet worried about his sisters finding all this out, only for the parents of his new lady friends to tell him that they got everything under control.
=== Visiting Dairyland Amoosement Park ===
The first day of Spring Break, Lincoln(given permission to leave school early due to daymares regarding his sisters possibly hunting him down), Jordan, and Stella all paid a visit to Dairyland. There, they visited a ton of attractions, like the Bull Pen Bumper Cars, a dunk tank that Lincoln wins Jordan a polar bear plushie from, the Milk Shaker, the House of Mirrors, the Butcher Shop(Dairyland's haunted house), the Dairy-Go-Round, a mechanical bull Stella amazed crowds around her with, the Scrambler, the funhouse, and the Butter Churn.
Jordan was worried about it at first but became a fan of it after riding on it the first time. The final thing they did at Dairyland was getting pizza for dinner while looking at a firework show. The explosions in the sky formed symbols for springtime and spring break and ended with an aurora borealis formation. After that, the trio returned to their homes, with Lincoln staying the night at Stella's this time.
=== A Spa Day ===
Having stayed the night at Stella's and befriending her family, Lincoln, accompanied by her, met with his other lady friends(sans Haiku) at a bus stop, Chaz and his sister Dana also being there. The two joined everyone in their trip to the spa. There, Carol and Whitney hit the mud baths with Becky and Dana joining them, with Lincoln and Chaz going into the steam room, and the rest headed for the mani-pedi room. In the steam room, Lincoln, when asked and encouraged by Chaz to tell him about the events bringing him to the spa, told him everything he told the other girls(sans Dana) back at Gus'. In the mud baths, Carol told Dana the exact same things.
In a massage room, Lincoln encountered an unexpected reunion with Ms. DiMartino, and ended up showing everyone a red splotch of what looks like sunburn, but is something different yet still as bad. DiMartino massaged Lincoln with aloe vera, clearing the red splotch from his body. Then, he and Chaz joined Carol and her crew in the mud paths. Afterward, the six all gathered with the rest of the girls in the hot tubs, where the females gave Lincoln some friendly and playful tender loving care for his respect towards females like them. Then, they all took a photo and posted it on social media, Carol coming up with the group name being the Gal Pals. After the spa day is over, some mani-pedis being given even towards Lincoln to conclude the day, everyone leaves as fresh as bees, not knowing that other people have been listening in on Lincoln's story.
=== The Convention ===
At an Ace Savvy convention, Clyde, Stella, Jordan, Becky, Chaz, Joey, and Dana all attended, some of them wearing costumes of the Full House gang, and the rest wearing costumes based on the Chess Club characters. There, Lincoln had an encounter with Renee, who quizzed him on the Full House gang and the Chess Club, since they were fighting over a chessboard. He earns the chessboard as a result, and later on, the emcee of the convention, Bill Buck(also the original creator of Ace Savvy), rewards Lincoln with $2500, which he would then use to afford another chessboard for Renee. This would get them on good terms with each other.
=== The Poetry Reading ===
Having left the convention, many agreed to go to The Burnt Bean for an open-mic poetry reading. The group, minus Chaz(who volunteered to "help" Carol and co with the upcoming barbecue) and Joey, all traveled to The Burnt Bean, and met up with Haiku, Cici, Phoebe, and Cristina. Before the reading, Clyde asked for something hypoallergenic, and received herbal tea with honey. Lincoln, who, like Clyde, is uncertain about coffee, ordered a mocha, having been told about it earlier by Dana and Becky. The open-mic then began. Most of them read poems created from scratch. Haiku, who's real name is revealed to be Hildegard Matthews, went first, reading a poem she wrote about silence. Then Jordan read a poem of her own about Spring as a season, followed by Stella reading a literal haiku about school stress and Spring Break. Dana would read a poem about "life", with Phoebe reading a poem about images, having been encouraged by Lincoln to use a mantra.
Cici's poem would flesh out middle school's trials and how the perfect friends can aid whoever goes through them, with Becky's poem expressing the beauty of fashion. Clyde's poem, Ode to Lori, would result in him getting the hook, both metaphorically and literally. Christina, deciding to buy Lincoln time, would read a poem by Emily Dickinson. And finally, Lincoln got up on stage, and reads a poem about family, showing how despite having been wronged by his biological family, he still loves them, the Louds and the Gals serving as his inspiration for the poem. Then, Superintendent Margaret Chen showed up to tell everyone about Child Protective Service reports she has received regarding the Loud sisters' actions, worrying Lincoln.
