User blog comment:EpsilonMk46/Which Fanon Lynn is Better? (Or Less Worse)/@comment-33419087-20171026090752

Look, how I see Lynn is complicated. She’s the most inconsistent character if you ask me. You can never tell if her rough treatment of Lincoln is genuine bullying, or tough kindness, or an attempt to toughen him up when he gets older.

Even if she really does love him, as far as i’m Concerned, she’s done a terrible job of showing that. Never once has she hugged him, comforted him, given him some personal talking to, shared some secrets with him alone, smiled at him warmly, or taken care of him. And she threatens him and pushes him around to no end, primarily just to entertain herself.

Than again, she has trained him for football, protected him from Lola, given him wise advice on how to lift, helped him with some of his schemes, moved his bed back to it’s original spot for his sake, thanked him for letting her bunk in, giving him her old bike, despite him having stolen it earlier and offered him her sympathy when it seemed Ronnie Anne didn’t ask him out.

But after NSL, I can’t see her so positively. I mean she turned the WHOLE family against Lincoln and made him homeless, all because she just couldn’t stomach one silly loss. Ignoring Lincoln’s own selfish trickery and lying, it’s shocking how even Lisa, Lucy and the parents ended up following her so quickly. It’s ironic, she’s spent so long in the series wanting to protect Lincoln from bullies, yet it never dawns on her that the only real bully might be her.

As if being sports obsessed and rough isn’t enough, she’s also very feeble minded. Believing in superstitions, using rough moves on her own brother just to help him, reacting to a simple loss like doomsday is coming, going insane with competition after she loses to her siblings teamed up and not even taking one moment to just put her feet up and think things through about what she’s doing with her life.

Overall, maybe if there was one episode that had her undergo a reality check concerning her superstitions, roughness, competitiveness and have her realise that there’s more to life than sports and winning, maybe i’d like her more. But for now, i’ll never understand her. I just wish there was some way to reveal her inner thoughts.

Someday, Lincoln should personally confront her and ask her if she hates him. Given how much of a thorn in his side she can be, despite her good intentions.
