Reboot

Okay, so SecuROM sucks, and my computer's CD drive got F'ed up because of it. So, I had to uninstall the Sims expansion packs that had SecuROM, so that I could continue on my one remaining CD/DVD drive. That means that all of my Sims are gone. Split. Out of here. Deceased.

Goodbye Legacy Sims.

Once I get all of my custom content back (since as a final "F-you!", EA Games deletes your entire Downloads folder whenever you uninstall something...good-bye 4 years worth of downloads), I will try again. But first, I will need to redo my Final Fantasy Sims. Although, perhaps I will do Legacy first, since I'm still collecting all of the custom content again. Be prepared for sporadic updates.

Massage school is getting intense, and I have very little time on my hands to play video games (I work full time, too).

College life is...

Last time we saw the Legacy brothers, they had just gotten into college and started working hard (or not). But they're also looking for love, and Brandon knows he must find a lovely lady to bring home to Mom and Dad Legacy. Will he capture Lani's heart?


Lani and Brandon sharing lunch

Brandon finally managed to sit and talk with Lani over lunch. She doesn't seem impressed by Brandon's eating habits.

Lani and Brandon snuggle

But one night, on the couch...something magical happens. Lani actually lets Brandon touch her! Is love in the air yet??

Lani and Brandon makeout

Things start to heat up between Lani and Brandon. And they aren't the only ones!

Bryan's first kiss

It seems Bryan and Jora like each other, too.

Brandon's funny face

And this is how Brandon reacts to Lani's kissing....apparently she needs some practice.

Lani and Brandon

Aren't they sweet together?

Brandon's admirer

And apparently, Lani isn't Brandon's only admirer.

Brandon, Bryan, Lani, and Jora make it out of their freshman year. As a reward, they decide to move in together to get out of the dorms and out on their own. More privacy! Is that a good thing?

New digs

They move into two cute bungalows right next to one another. They are small, but the yard is large and private.

Mahjong

The four have a lot of free time (school isn't too hard yet), and like to spend it playing Mahjong.

Lani and Jora friends

Lani and Jora now have more time and opportunity to get to know one another.

Lani and Jora handholding

Although that may not be a good thing...

Brandon and Bryan clueless

Meanwhile, Brandon and Bryan are clueless about their ladies...

Lani and Brandon in bed

But it's Brandon who gets to Lani first!

Lani and Jora...in bed

Eventually, Jora gets some of Lani, too!!!!

Bryan and Jora in love

And Bryan gets in on it, too (finally).

However...

Jora is discovered

Jora was not discreet, however, and Lani finds her in bed with Bryan. Even though Lani has no room to talk (she was with Brandon, after all), she still gets really angry.

Lani slaps Jora

So angry, she slaps Jora! Bryan, meanwhile, has wandered off, clueless as to why Lani barged in on them and started screaming at his girl (Women...right?)

Lani and Jora fighting 2

The slap quickly escalates into a full out fight!

Lani wins

Lani manages to win. She's been working out, and Jora hadn't noticed. You can see how unconcerned Bryan is...

Can the girls keep their problems from their boyfriends? Can Jora and Lani stand living in the same house together, even after all of this? Find out next time!!

College 101

Last time, Brandon and Bryan were getting ready to go to college. Now, they've finally arrived! They both managed to get into the same college, and into the same dorm.

Two lovely ladies have also moved in to the dorm, and Brandon and Bryan have high hopes for the year!


First day of college!

Here they are, at the dorm, fresh off the taxi. The two lovelies are Lani, the brunette, and Jora, the blonde. Luckily for Brandon and Bryan, they are living in the same dorm! Isn't college awesome?!? This is also before Brandon decided to get a new haircut.

Brandon not liked

Brandon at first had some hard times making friends. This lady seems determined to ignore him.

Brandon studying hard

Brandon turns to studying to alleviate boredom. He knows his family is counting on him to get a good education, and the pressure is on.

Lani

Lani seems pretty upitty, and Brandon isn't sure he will be able to make friends with such a classy and pretty lady.

Lonely lunch

Lunch times are dull, because Brandon only has his brother to talk to...and he'd much prefer lovelier company...

Bryan dancing

Bryan on the other hand, is having a grand old time. There's less pressure from the Family Legacy to do well, since he's not the Heir. He has the time to cut loose a little more.

Jora alone

Jora, too, seems a little out of place, and Bryan is starting to notice.

Bryan and Jora dancing

Luckily for her, Bryan is a nice guy, and she's soon joining in.

Bryan and Jora getting to know

Bryan and Jora start talking, and find they have a lot in common.

Brandon partying alone

Brandon, though, is still partying...alone...

Other interest?

Cheerleaders might be interesting though...if you can stop them from cheering long enough to talk to them....

Lani possessed

The tension between Lani and Brandon is palpable, however, and Brandon isn't sure he can contain himself. Apparently, Lani also occasionally becomes possessed (you may not be able to see it, but Lani's eyes have gone completely blank).


Lani is admired

Brandon becomes obsessed with the lovely Lani, and starts following her everywhere. She doesn't seem to notice...yet.

Brandon stalking Lani

Even when Lani is exercising, Brandon is there to watch.

Will Brandon get the girl? Can Bryan stop partying long enough to go to class? Find out next time..!

The Bumpy Road to College

..We'll have to see more of Leslie later, but now...

Brandon is an overacheiver!

Bradon is now an overachiever! He worked really, really hard to get here! Not only does he have an A+ grade point average, but he reached the top of the teen Science career. Now he has scholarships enough to go to college!

Bryan is a teen!

And now Bryan is a teen! But he's catching up with his brother, and they plan to go to college together.

Bigger House

Through everyone's hard work, the house has been expanded. Now there are three bedrooms, though they still have to share a bath. It's not too bad, though.

Brandon's First Kiss

...Ah...teen love. Brandon and Ivy Copur share their first kiss together...love is in the air!

Robber!

But not all is wonderful! That very night, a robber breaks into their home!

Fight!

Luckily for the Legacy family, they have an alarm! The alarm goes off and soon summons the police, who gets into a fight with the robber! Everyone wakes up to watch the rukus, though Altair seems pretty upset about it already.


Robber Arrest

The Law wins this round! The robber is taken into custody, but not before the robber stole their couch. They immediately bought a new one, though no one was very happy about it.

Brandon upset

Upset about robber

Everyone is pretty cut up about losing their couch. This was supposed to be a nice neighborhood!

...Will Brandon be too distraught to go to college? Will Bryan have enough money to join him there? Find out next time...

Growing Up Legacy

...When last we left the Legacy family, Ariadne had just given birth to their second child, Bryan.


Brandon is a child! Pictures, Images and Photos

While Ariadne and Altair were oohing over their new baby, Brandon quietly grew up into a child!

Brandon chores Pictures, Images and Photos

With the extra hands, the house soon gets back into order. Ariadne is still not pregnant (thankfully), and so she has more energy to help around the house. Altair got a promotion, and he therefore has some more time, too. Peace at last!

Bryan is a toddler! Pictures, Images and Photos

Bryan is now a toddler! And he's even more of a handful than Brandon was! Everyone is so busy, they don't have time to spend teaching Bryan the things he needs to know as a toddler. The lack of attention makes him...difficult...

Snow! Pictures, Images and Photos

Winter comes, and with it, snow. And...

Brandon is a teen! Pictures, Images and Photos

Brandon's birthday! He's now a teenager and has to think about starting college. But first, there is so much for him to do!!

Bryan is a child! Pictures, Images and Photos

With Brandon helping out, Bryan finally grows up to be a child!

Snowball fight Pictures, Images and Photos

Weekends are the best for the family, and Altair and Bryan spend some outdoor time together with a snowball fight!

Digging Ivy Pictures, Images and Photos

The air might be cold, but Brandon is heating up! Here he is, chatting up Ivy Copur, whom he seems to have a thing for...but does she reciprocate?

Brandon's first job Pictures, Images and Photos

Not only does Brandon have to balance school and his (budding) love-life, but he has to go to work, too! The family needs the extra money, and if he does well, he'll get more money for college.

Maid Hired Pictures, Images and Photos

Brandon feels a little irritated, though, when the family uses his extra money to hire a maid!

Leslie Pictures, Images and Photos

And what do you know? Altair now has two ladies other than Ariadne around. This is Leslie, who lives down the street. But Leslie isn't who she seems to be...

Join us next time! Will Altair not be able to help himself with the new maid and Lovely Leslie? Who is Leslie anyway, and what does she have in store for Altair??
