Welcome to the Pseudo Legacy, where the last scion of the Legacina elves follows a mysterious prophecythat seems to indicate that he shall be the one who founds the legacy to restore the lost magic and strengthof the Legacina line.
Why �Pseudo� Legacy? Well, to be honest, I didn�t want to give up any of my hacks and that pretty muchnixes this from being a legacy that follows the official rules.
Now, on with the story!
This chapter was originally uploaded to the Sims2 Exchange on January 21, 2007.
![Page 2: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Sim State University, a place far from the wilds of Pleasantview where he grew up, is the place that TeylirLegacina, now calling himself Taylor, has chosen to come for his education. After all, if he is to found alegacy to revive his family�s lost glory, then having an education is going to be a very helpful thing.
It has been several years since his parents and grandfather were callously killed by the whims of adespicable vampire. As far as Taylor is aware, he has escaped the evil woman�s notice and is now free tofollow the dictates of the prophecy.
![Page 3: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
�Why am I hearing voices?�
Uh....
�Great. Not only am I hearing voices, I�m talking out loud to myself. What a way to make an impression onmy first day.� He sighed.
Well, as narrator, I didn�t think Taylor would be able to hear me this quickly. This is a phenomenon that hasbeen known to happen among legacy sims, but for some reason, I thought my sims would be immune.
�Yeesh, and to top it off, the voice in my head is talking to itself too. Greeaaaat.�
Taylor Legacina is a Cancer, popularity aspiration, with the lifetime want to become a General. His stats are 5Neat, 5 Outgoing, 5 Active, 5 Playful, and 5 Nice. A very middle of the road sim.
�Gah. Stupid voice-in-my-head.�
![Page 4: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Continuing on, Taylor is a popularity sim with a lifetime want of becoming a General. Unfortunately, thatbeautiful flowing hair is never going to cut it in the military, so we ought to cut it now. Perhaps a buzz cut?
�Look voice-in-my-head, I am not cutting my hair. They�re not that strict. This is the sim military that wentto war on the garden gnomes after all. I�ll just put it back in a ponytail. Now it�s out of the way.�
I�m not sure that would fly in the real world, but whatever floats your boat, Taylor. I guess I like the ponytaillook anyway.
Since he is a popularity sim, it�s time to start making friends. And finding a suitable mate.
I�m not sure why popularity sims have such a bad reputation among legacy players. In my mind, they�reeasy as pie to handle. Give them a phone and they�re well on their way to have as many friends as theirlittle pixel hearts desire.
�Wait a sec, voice-in-my-head, did you say mates? Come on, I just got to college! Let me sow my wild oats.�
![Page 5: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
�Hey! Aren�t you Laci Mazza?� Taylor got excited when he met his first dormie, thinking he might have met acelebrity.
�Huh? No... I�ve got no idea who this Lazi Macca is. My name is Christa Kearney.�
�Oh.. uh.. sorry.� Swallowing, Taylor offers a sheepish grin, �You look just like someone I�d read about. Just..just as a word of advice, you should probably stay away from cow plants and vampires.�
�Whatever...� Walking away, the Laci Mazza clone muttered, �Pointy eared freak.�
Well, don�t let that get you down, Taylor. She�s always had people issues.
![Page 6: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Trying again with the next dormie, Taylor introduces himself with a touch of trepidation, �Uh.. hi. I�m Taylor.�
�Nice to meetcha. I�m Cherry.� She pauses, �I�m not going to bite you. Unless you really want me to.�Looking him up and down, she adds, �Not that I�d mind that, you�re kinda hot.�
�Uh...� Blushing and laughing nervously, Taylor realizes he might have found a romance sim, �Maybe. So..what�s your major?�
After a couple of conversations and in spite of her boldly forward advances, Taylor�s had his first friend.
![Page 7: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Taylor�s next friend was a rather rebellious looking dormie by the name of Charlie Thompson.
�Yo.�
Wait, you can hear me? You�re not supposed to hear me at all, you�re a dormie!
�Pfft. Whatever, lady. You may be fishing for chicks to hitch up Taylor, but you need some eye candy as well.I got a feeling you�ll be wanting me around for a while.�
Cheeky sim.
![Page 8: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The first few weeks of college were a blur of new people and hard work. After all, Taylor had absolutely noskills or money when he came to college, so he was at a bit of a disadvantage when it came to getting hisgrades up there.
Still, with some hard work and dedication, he was easily able to get a 4.0 halfway through his Freshmanyear.
![Page 9: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Of course, it didn�t hurt at all that he�d gone out of his way to befriend his professors. One in particularseemed to get along with him rather well.
Professor Kelly Hanby was a young woman not long out of school herself, and she found Taylor�s sense ofhumor to be quite charming. He might struggle a bit with some of the coursework, but he could tell a greatjoke.
![Page 10: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Actually, they both enjoyed each other�s company quite a bit more than either really wanted to admit. Afterall, there was this whole student-teacher professionalism boundary between them. Professor Kelly knewsome professors took advantage of their students, but she didn�t want to be like that.
![Page 11: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Cherry, on the other hand, had no boundaries at all between her and what she wanted, which was Taylor.
Despite his uncertainty about the situation, Taylor was quite flattered at the attention from Cherry. Shewasn�t unattractive, and she was quite definitely persistent.
![Page 12: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
�Uh.. oh my.. Cherry, I don�t think that�s anatomically possible, but.. uhm.. heh... it sure sounds interesting.�She had quite the talent for getting the usually verbose Taylor to blush profusely.
�Come on hot stuff. I�ve got something I want to show you. And something I want to see. And do, andtouch...� Grabbing his hand, Cherry led the finally willing Taylor to her dorm room.
![Page 13: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
This led from one thing to another, which led to another, and finally, in the end, Taylor learned the truemeaning of woohoo. Cherry certainly knew the ins and... er... well, she had a good grasp on.. uhm... Shehad a good understanding of the wooing and the hooing.
Unfortunately, Cherry�s somewhat dim roommate had no sense of timing. Lisa Trottier scratched her head,�Hey Cherry? Do you know what the capitol of Bulgaria is? Or maybe your boyfriend does?�
It did bring Taylor down from his high a touch.
![Page 14: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
While he greatly enjoyed the evening with Cherry, Taylor spent the rest of the day thinking about someoneelse. Cherry might be fun to spend time with, but she�d never be someone he could enjoy spending the restof his life with. He needed someone who could be his best friend as well as his lover. He needed someonesmart, witty, intelligent. Someone who would understand and support his need to found a legacy.
![Page 15: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
He needed Professor Kelly.
�Kelly, I.. I know we said we wouldn�t cross that line because you didn�t want to be one of those teachers,but...� Taking a deep breath, Taylor blurted it all out, �I just can�t get you out of my head. You�re my bestfriend, you understand my jokes, you�re good at anything you put your mind to, and you�re gorgeous.Please, can we give this a try?�
�I.. Taylor.. I don�t know what to say...�
![Page 16: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
�I don�t... mmmphle! Mmmmmmmmmm.�
Taylor really didn�t give her a chance to say no. From the stories he�d heard of his parents, his father neverlet his mother have a chance to say no either, and if Professor Kelly was the one he wanted, he needed tolet her know in no uncertain terms.
In the end, Professor Kelly was quite agreeable to the whole thing.
![Page 17: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
After that, the semesters seemed to fly by in a daze of studying, skilling, and dating Professor Kelly. Taylorwas fairly content with life in the dorms, but it always felt like there was something he was missing out on.
One day between class and skilling, he took a good look around campus using the telescope up on the roof.A streaker was running across the quad, there was a professor making out with a student up in the towerwith the hot tub, the cow mascot was tormenting some poor freshmen. And then he saw the Greek Houses.
![Page 18: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
�Oh my gosh, is he... Wow. He really is. That�s totally...� Taylor was astoundingly disturbed by whatever itwas he was seeing over at Urele Oresha Cham House.
�WAIT! That�s it! That�s what I need to do. I need to found my own Greek House. It�ll be a legacy within mylegacy!�
![Page 19: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Somehow, everyone knows when they�re being spied upon, so Ashley Pitts came rushing over to the dormto give Taylor a good thrashing. Instead, he was shocked to find a very angry and determined Taylor readyto face him.
�You think you�re hot stuff being in that Greek House. Well, I�ll tell you buddy, I�ve seen what kind of personyou are, and you�re nothing! And to prove it to you, I�m going to start my own Greek House! Where peopledon�t need to kowtow to your kind of slime!�
![Page 20: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Taylor immediately called up Professor Kelly to share his ideas with her. She was always a great soundingboard for his thoughts.
�Mmmfffphlllmmmmmmmmm.�
Apparently she had no objections to Taylor�s plan to start a Greek House.
![Page 21: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Phi Dagga Katta wasn�t much to look at in the beginning. A few walls, some run down appliances, a table,some chairs. It didn�t matter, though. Taylor was still the talk of the campus.
His first visitor was the irrepressible Whitney Buckingham, cheerleader extraordinaire. After all, save thecheerleader, save the...
�Wrong show, voice-in-my-head.�
Oh yeah. What I meant was, befriend the cheerleader, befriend the campus.
![Page 22: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
In addition to Whitney and her cheering ways, there were also the two mascots that took turns showing up.Neil Pederson, the Llama, and Colin Cox, the Cow, didn�t really get along that well, but they�d occasionallystudy together.
![Page 23: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Finally, the other important person that Taylor met after founding Phi Dagga Katta was the streaker.�Hi! I�m Parker Parker. Part of the Greek Society welcoming committee. It�s good to have you here.� ParkerParker was nothing if not gregarious.
�Uhm... dude, you�ve got no clothes on. You�re just... hanging out there.� Taylor was a touch disturbed bythis, but Parker Parker was disarmingly friendly and eventually our founder was able to see past thestreaker�s tendencies.
And yes, his name really is Parker Parker.
![Page 24: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Phi Dagga Katta is also where the Gnome Conspiracy was born. Taylor took great joy in buying his first lawngnome, but random people would show up and insist on stealing the durn thing. I think he went through agood half dozen gnomes during his last two years in school.
![Page 25: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Taylor quickly became known around campus for holding some of the best toga parties seen in a long time.
Of course, his first party was almost his last. You see, the juice was flowing rather freely at this first party,and Taylor had a little too much to drink. A lot too much actually. Especially with what he was about to do.
![Page 26: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
�Mmm. Cherry on top. Heheh. C�mere.� He was drunk. She was wearing a sheet. And, of course, Cherrycertainly wasn�t going to object to another chance to fool around with Taylor.
![Page 27: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
�TAYLOR LEGACINA! How dare you!� Professor Kelly�s wounded shout immediately shattered the spell ofjuice and bubbles. Cheery wisely crept away and let the two �lovebirds� be.
�K.k.kelly, I.. I d.don�t... I... Uh.. oh gosh.� Taylor stammered away.
![Page 28: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
�VO GERBITS!�
�Whitney, dear child, please move yourself. You�re blocking my view of Professor Kelly in her bikini. That andI�m missing out on the drama. What use is there being a professor at this school if I do not at least get theopportunity to witness such fine drama once in a while?� Professor Peter Boyle added finally, �Not tomention witnessing such a fine professor in her bikini.�
![Page 29: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Taylor didn�t care about anyone else there and set right to groveling, �Kelly, I don�t know what I wasthinking. I wasn�t thinking. It was the stupidest thing I�ve ever done. Please, please, PLEASE forgive mystupid sorry a..�
�Save it. I don�t want to hear it. You told me you wanted a woman to be at your side, but apparently thatwasn�t good enough. You can have your dormie trash.� Kelly turned and stalked off the lot.
�Hey, I heard that!� Cherry shouted.
![Page 30: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
�Charlie man, I don�t know what to do. I�m miserable without her. I don�t want to give up on the GreekHouse, though. I need someone else here to help me out. Uh.. would you consider joining me?�
Ever aware, Charlie said on the other end of the line, �You want me to be a placeholder, huh?�
�Uh, that�s not what I said, Charlie.� Taylor blinked a few times at the phone.
�No sweat, Taylor. It�s no biggie. Besides, who knows what might come after being a placeholder. Sure, I�lljoin your Greek House.�
![Page 31: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
�Charlie, I�m going to die if I don�t get her back. She�s all I can think about.� Taylor was getting rather pitifulabout the whole thing.
�Hey, I�m just a hot knowledge sim. I don�t know that much about women. But, I�d say call her up andapologize again, now that you�re not smelling like pineapple juice and bubbles, and Cherry�s not in thebackground gloating.�
�You�re brilliant, dude!� Taylor rushed off to find the phone.
�Hey, does this mean I can eat your grilled cheese sandwich too?�
![Page 32: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
�Okay Taylor. What is it?� Professor Kelly hesitantly came over to the house after Taylor�s call. Charlie wiselydecided to go to class right around then. He might be a knowledge sim, but there were some things hedidn�t want to see.
�Kelly, please hear me out. No words can ever make up for me being a drunken idiot. I could blame it on thejuice, I could blame it on Cherry, I could blame it on everything under the sun, and that still wouldn�t makeup for what I did to you.� Taylor took a deep breath and forged ahead, �You are all I think about, day andnight. I don�t think I can go forward with the legacy if I don�t have you at my side, and now that I�ve donethe stupidest thing on the planet, I know I may have lost you forever. Please forgive me. I don�t want tospend my days without you at my side.�
![Page 33: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Perhaps the words were enough. Perhaps it was the contrition in Taylor�s face. Perhaps it was that she didn�twant to be without him either. Whatever it was, Professor Kelly gave a quiet sigh and pulled him close, �If Iever catch you doing something like that again, I�m going to feed you to a cowplant, resurrect you and thendo it all over again. For a very, very long time.�
![Page 34: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
With Taylor�s relationship with Professor Kelly restored, life returned to a semblance of normal at the GreekHouse. He and Charlie happily continued their success at skilling, studying, and partying. Everyone loved agood smustle on their front lawn.
![Page 35: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Phi Dagga Katta may have humble beginnings, but its founder and first placeholder earned their rights toadorn the walls for the generations to come.
![Page 36: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Taylor graduated at the top of his class and Summa Cum Laude. Despite his cavalier attitude, Charlie wassad to see the man go. He was aware that as placeholder, he would essentially be frozen in time untilTaylor�s children came to Sim State.
For Taylor�s part, he was eager to get on with the meat of his legacy as foretold by the prophecy.
![Page 37: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
The move from college to his new home lot was a rather large transition for Taylor. Though he had gottenused to a degree of lawn living with Phi Dagga Katta, he felt as if he should have moved beyond suchmeager beginnings.
�Voice-in-my-head, are you sure you can�t hit me with just one motherlode? Walls would be really nice. Anda bed.�
You�ll get the bed when you get home from work and we can sell your car. You�re a little late for work andyou need a promotion.
Horrified, Taylor whined, �You�re going to sell my car!? But.. but I had a specific want for that car andyou�ll..�
Look, we can either sell the car and get you a bed or you can sleep on the ground when you finally passout. You�re not in college anymore. You don�t get the �sleep on floor� option.
�FINE.�
![Page 38: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Despite his complaints..
�Hey, I don�t complain that much.�
Hush. Despite his complaints, Taylor did settle in to his new life rather easily. A promotion came quickly. Onemore and he could call up Professor Kelly and set the time for their wedding. He couldn�t wait until shecould join him. He just hoped she wouldn�t be too upset at the accommodations.
![Page 39: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Having a goal like that in mind made the skilling necessary for promotions that much easier. Taylor workedhard to reach the level of physical prowess needed to advance through the military.
![Page 40: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Eventually the time came for the wedding. Since Taylor was a popularity sim, there was no way he wasgoing to get married without having a party. Scraping together his bonuses from his recent promotions (andthe sale of his car), he was able to afford a wedding arch and a buffet. That left no room for chairs, though.No one seemed to mind too much, though.
�I, Taylor Legacina, take you, Professor Kelly, to be my wife. To have, to hold, and cherish for all of my simdays.�
�And I, Professor Kelly Hanby (no relation to Lucy), take you, Taylor Legacina, to be my husband. To have,to hold, and woohoo for all of my sim days.�
There was a huge kiss I forgot to photograph, and then much cheering.
![Page 41: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
And the first thing Professor Kelly did after kissing Taylor to seal the marriage was to rush over to thecounter and start cleaning it with a flourish of bubbles.
Professor Kelly Hanby Legacina revealed herself to be a popularity sim with the want to have 20 bestfriends. Her attributes were 10 Neat, 7 Outgoing, 3 Active, 4 Playful, and 4 Nice.
With two popularity sims in the house, the phone was going to be getting a definite workout.
![Page 42: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Despite her cleaning fetish and the meager accommodations, the party went off without a hitch. All ofTaylor�s college friends were there, including Parker Parker and Charlie Thompson. They also happily invitedin Melissa Fancey when she wandered onto the lot.

�Y�know Taylor, I always had a thing for you. I guess I regret I wasn�t as forward as Cherry or as lucky asProfessor Kelly.� Kenya Jeffries had hit the juice a little too hard and caused an uncomfortable moment.
�Uh.. Kenya, you�re a pretty girl and I know some sim down the line will take a shine to you, but I valueyour friendship above anything else. And you know I�m madly in love with Professor Kelly. Come on, let�splay some red hands.� Taylor had learned a little bit of tact over the years.
![Page 44: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
When the party was over, Professor Kelly took some time to change her look. She�d left the universitybehind, so there was no reason to keep the same staid look. A wardrobe change and wearing her hair loosergave her a much more relaxed demeanor.
![Page 45: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
�Kelly...� Taylor began hesitantly.
Interrupting him, Professor Kelly said, �You know, this may not fit the typical fairy tale a girl has, but this isprobably the happiest day of my life, Taylor. You here by my side, the stars over head, and a phone on thewall that I can use any time I want.� Turning towards him, she smiled, �I love you.�
His response involved no words other than an eventual �Woohoo!�
![Page 46: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
As the days progressed, both Taylor and Professor Kelly worked hard at their respective careers and goals.Taylor was making headway in the military career and was already in line to become a senior officer.Professor Kelly took a job in the athletic career, but was much more focused on making and keeping friends.
�Hi Melissa. How are you doing?��It�s me, Professor Kelly.��Professor Kelly Legacina. You know, you were at my wedding the other day.��Well, yes, I know we only talked for a moment or two, but I thought we could chat and become bestfrien... Hello? Melissa? Are you there? Oh, she hung up on me.�
![Page 47: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Amidst the working, skilling, and talking, there were also nights of loving woohoo between Taylor andProfessor Kelly, leading to something everyone but Professor Kelly seemed to be expecting.
�I�M PREGNANT!?!�
Yes dear, that happens when you woohoo constantly. Birds, bees, and Try For Baby and all that.
�TAYLOR!! I�m pregnant!� Despite her shock, she really was overjoyed about this whole thing.
![Page 48: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Taylor was also thrilled with the prospect of becoming a daddy. With a baby on the way, he made sure towork hard enough so that they could put some walls up and paint the place so it would be more like a realhome.
�Hi little baby. I�m your daddy. We�re gonna have so much fun, you and me.� Taylor loved rubbing ProfessorKelly�s tummy and talking to the baby.
�Hee... Taylor, that tickles. I hope you still feel this way when you have to change her stinky diaper.�
�Her? What if it�s a him. We should probably start talking about names, Kelly.�
�Hmm. What about Sassafras?�
�Uh...� Taylor could tell this was going to be a long discussion.
![Page 49: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Quicker than could be expected, the day arrived. Kelly was less than thrilled with the whole concept of labor.
�AAAAAHHHRRG! THIS HURTS! TAYLOR!!!! THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!�
�Oh my, what do you want me to do? Kelly? Kelly?!?� Taylor leapt from the couch, rushing to her side.
�YOU CAN DIE! AIEEEE! PAINFULLY!�
![Page 50: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Luckily for everyone involved, the sim birthing process is relatively quick, despite what any sim motherthinks. In the blink of an eye Professor Kelly was holding their new daughter in her hands.
�What should we name her, Taylor? You didn�t like any of my names, so you choose.� Professor Kelly wasastoundingly serene after her initial outburst.
Beaming with pride but approaching with caution, Taylor asked, �What do you think of the name Zoey?�
I think that�s perfect. Welcome little Zoey Legacina, our first legacy born child.
�Thanks voice-in-my-head. I know I like it.� Taylor smiled down at his daughter.
�Taylor, who are you talking to?�
�Uh...�
![Page 51: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
With Zoey snug in her crib, the two legacy lovebirds cuddled together in bed. Taylor suddenly and adoringlylooked at Professor Kelly and said, �I think we should have another one.�
�So soon?� But Kelly was smiling.
Grinning, he replied, �Yeah. At least, it sure can�t hurt to try. I like the trying part.�
![Page 52: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
And try they did. Pretty much everywhere in the house. Thankfully Zoey was far too young to walk in onthem during this time.
![Page 53: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Time passed quickly, and a day arrived that Taylor had been looking forward to since the moment he knewProfessor Kelly was pregnant � the chance to throw a birthday party!
![Page 54: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
All the regulars from college came to the party. Parker Parker, Gavin Miller, Whitney Buckingham, and so on.
Charlie Thompson looked on with a grin, knowing that it wouldn�t be that long before Zoey would grow upand join him at college, letting him get on with his life as she took over the Greek House. �I hope she�shot.�
CHARLIE!!
�Well, I do. Don�t be a hater �cause I�m honest.�
For heaven�s sake...
![Page 55: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
While I wouldn�t use the term �hot� at this stage of Zoey�s life, she was definitely a child I�d call �cute�.Adorable is also appropriate. Look at those cute widdle ears and those big blue eyes. Gotta love cutetoddlers.
Cute as a button and mean as a hornet. Zoey�s personality turned out to be 5 Neat, 5 Outgoing, 9 Active, 5Playful and 1 Nice.
![Page 56: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Completely on her own, Zoey started making friends. Going up to Parker Parker and pulling on his pant leg,she demanded to be picked up.
�Well hello, little one. I�m Uncle Parker. No remember, no matter what anyone says, nudity is OKAY. It�scompletely natural, right?�
�Goo!�
�Exactly!�
All in all, the party was a complete success. The cops even came to break it up at midnight. You know howout of hand those toddler birthday parties get.
![Page 57: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
The next span of time was spent helping Zoey learn everything she needed to in her toddler years. Eventhough Professor Kelly teased him about how much work a baby was, Taylor quite happily stepped in to bethe one to teach Zoey most of her toddler skills.
![Page 58: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
�Wha...� Kelly blinked down at her stomach. �Taylor! I�m pregnant! How did this happen!?�
For an intelligent sim, Professor Kelly could be a bit dense at times. It wasn�t like she and Taylor were beingcautious in their attempts at having another child.
![Page 59: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
�Woo! We�re gonna have a baby! We�re gonna have a baby! VO GERBITS!� Even with the mystifying shockProfessor Kelly professed, she was delighted that they had conceived another baby.
�Kelly, uhm.. maybe.. maybe you shouldn�t dance quite like that. It can�t be good for the baby, can it?�
![Page 60: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
Zoey may have been a bit too young to understand why her mother was dancing, but she could at least getinto the whole dancing thing.
Isn�t toddler dancing one of the cutest things you�ve ever seen?
![Page 61: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
Time marches on, and it was soon time to throw another birthday party. Everyone was invited, both oldcollege friends, and new townie friends. Professor Kelly even relented and let Taylor invite Cherry this time.
![Page 62: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
It seems like just yesterday she was a cute little baby. Oh wait, that was yesterday. Either way, Zoey grewup into an adorable child. One of the cutest I�ve ever had, certainly.
�Hey, you�re the voice daddy calls �voice-in-my-head�, right? Can I just call you voice?�
Sure kid.
�Alright! Want some cake?�
![Page 63: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
Over in the kitchen, Cherry sat munching on some potato chips. Or possibly cookies. They areindistinguishable from chips.
�So. This is what they call �domestic bliss�? Man, to think that this all could have been mine. Stinky diapers,spoiled bottles, tacky kitchen furniture, full time job. Yeesh. What the heck was I thinking? I�m glad hedidn�t want me.�
Ahh Cherry. The tact of romance sim faced with domestic bliss. Not this generation at least.
![Page 64: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Soon after Zoey�s birthday party, Professor Kelly gave birth to their second daughter, Victoria Legacina.Being that the narrator is a bit new at this, she forgot to get pictures of the birth, or any decent pictures ofVictoria as a baby. This is probably the best one, where Professor Caryl came to visit and took it uponherself to feed the baby.
![Page 65: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
With Zoey a child and in school, it was time to ensure that she got the best education possible. This meantinviting the headmaster of the local private school over. BJ Ryan apparently drew the short straw.
�Man, I�ve heard what nightmares some of these legacy families can be. I�m really not looking forward tothis. If I don�t make it out alive, tell my mother I loved her.�
BJ, you�re being overly dramatic. There are no cowplants on this lot anyway.
![Page 66: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
When all was said and done, the tour had been given, the meal had been served (unburnt) and BJ waspleasantly surprised.
�Mrs. Legacina, we�ll be proud to admit young Zoey to our student body. The Legacinas are just the type offamily our school looks to foster.�
�Uhm.. Thanks, I think, Mr. Ryan.�
![Page 67: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
Babies grow so fast, and it was soon time to have another party. In most sim homes I�ve observed (played),the baby-toddler transition is a quiet one, shared among the immediate family and perhaps a close friend ortwo. Not among the Legacinas. Put two popularity sims in a house and EVERYTHING is an opportunity tohave a party.
This time Professor Kelly took the honors of inviting the guests. Continuing to work her way towards herlifetime goal of having twenty best friends, she invited some new folks, including the infamous Sandy Bruty.
![Page 68: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Victoria apparently did not want to grow up, though. The first birthday cake earned cheering and singing,but she refused to be tossed. Taylor realized she needed a diaper change and a bottle first. Throughout thiswhole process, the entire party followed him around, continuing to cheer and try and encourage Victoria intotransitioning.
Eventually, she gave in and transitioned into a toddler.
![Page 69: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
Again, it was Taylor who took on the responsibility of seeing that Victoria learned everything she needed to.Although she was almost identical* to Zoey, she also seemed to want to take her own sweet time learningsome skills.
*Curse of the Clones - I misunderstood the steps needed to be taken to avoid having the second child be aclone of the first, so Zoey and Victoria ended up with the exact same personality.
![Page 70: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
Despite her stubbornness, Taylor eventually succeeded in making sure Victoria learned everything sheshould to become a happy child.
![Page 71: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
Just in time, too. Again, all the familiar faces were invited, turning the birthday into a festive event.
Charlie watched on with a grin, �Man, I hope she ends up hot too. It�ll be like living with twins. Whoamama.�
Charlie! Come on man, she�s a toddler. It�s kinda creepy.
�Look, just because a guy can plan for the future doesn�t mean you should hate on him.�
Man, I�m glad my founder wasn�t female. I probably would have married you in, and who knows what thatwould have led to.
�Good reading for sure.�
![Page 72: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
Victoria transitioned without a hitch and quickly introduced herself to everyone, including Charlie.
�Hi, I�m Victoria.� She looked him up and down and stated succinctly, �I�m going to marry you.�
�Whoa.. hang on a sec, kid. Voice was calling me creepy, now you�re creeping me out. Who said anythingabout marriage?� Charlie was getting a little nervous.
�Don�t worry. You�ll like it. First I gotta grow up, though. Okay, bye mister. I gotta go eat cake.�
![Page 73: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
�Taylor?� Professor Kelly mused thoughtfully after everyone had gone home, �Do you think we should haveanother baby?�
�Gah.. no. I�m happy with two. Those two are going to be a handful on their own.� Taylor continued paintinghis llama.
�Oh well. I suppose you�re right.� There was a long, thoughtful pause. �Does this mean we shouldn�twoohoo as much anymore?�
�Wha? Oh heck no. We can have a dozen more kids if no more kids means no more woohoo.�
![Page 74: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
Luckily for Taylor, more woohoo didn�t necessarily mean more kids. The two he had were quite enough.
�Listen lady, I know they hired you to watch me while they�re both at work, but I don�t want your pies, yourcrepes, or your friendship. Someday, when I rule the world.. No, not the world, the UNIVERSE, you�re gonnahave to go into hiding. Zoey told me how you put me on the floor and left rotten food all over the house.�
![Page 75: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
�Mr. Legacina, that Nanny looked a touch frightened when she ran out of here. Is there anything else Ishould know?� BJ had come by to see whether they wanted to allow Victoria to come to their school as well.
�Oh, it was probably nothing. You know those nannies and their bl... bingo nights.� Taylor cast a skywardglance towards the ceiling and the girls� room above. He could command an army, but he couldn�t controltwo small girls.
�In that case, we�ll be proud to admit Victoria to our ranks.�
�Whew!�
![Page 76: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
Oddly enough, as mean as the two girls were, they got along famously. They often played cops and robbersin the yard, shooting and killing each other continuously. What was funny was that the winner would alwaysrun over and KICK the one lying on the ground. They thought this was hilarious and did it for hours on end.
![Page 77: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
�Hey Zoey. The voice says you�re gonna be heir, �cause you were first born and we�re �xactly the same.�Victoria commented this as they played, her toy horse stomping peasants into the ground.
�Yeah. I don�t think it matters, though. I mean, you can still try and take over the world even if you�re notheir. Daddy said something about the not-heir getting something called motherlode, which sounds way cool.�Zoey�s rocketship blasted off into space, hurtling towards an unsuspecting space station about to beexploded into smithereens.
�Universe, Zoey. I want to rule the Universe.�
![Page 78: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
Evil incarnate and the best of friends.
Well, I guess I shouldn�t call them evil. They�re not exactly evil. They just have a different way of looking atthe world.
![Page 79: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
Being popularity sims, Taylor and Professor Kelly often brought friends from work home. One of the friendsthat often accompanied Professor Kelly was Ahbijeet Depiesse.
�Hi Mr. Depiesse. Are you staying for dinner again tonight?�
�Hiya Zoey. Hey Zoey, did I ever tell you about the time I was in the 18th Airborne Infantry and we went upagainst the Gnomes of Hochtenstein?�
�Yes Mr. Depiesse. Several times.�
�Oh.� He paused, and then started in on the story anyway, �It was a horribly stormy night, but it was perfectcover for our planes...�
![Page 80: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
The years of Zoey�s childhood had raced by, and now it was time to grow into a teenager. The regular crewwas there, as might be expected. Man, these parties were getting to be old hat. It�s definitely a good thingfor the narrator�s sanity that there weren�t more children.
Taylor whispers, �Psst, voice-in-my-head. I know for a fact that you like the parties as much as we do. Sohush.�
Quiet, you.
![Page 81: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
�WOO! I�m a teenager! Look at me, Victoria! I�m a teenager. I�m HOT!� The candles were blown out andZoey quickly raced into the kitchen to tell her best friend and little sister.
�Yeah, big deal. You�ve got boobs now. I�ll get them too. Now stand back. I�m trying to cause my brain todevelop mind control powers by forcing the blood to my head.�
![Page 82: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
Out in the living room, Professor Kelly kicked the party into high gear by starting to freestyle. Thisapparently is a great party pasttime, since everyone gets entertained and starts taking turns with their ownraps.
�Yo, Professor Kelly in the HOUSE! I got two girls, I got my man, I got my friends, I got my phone. Try andtake them from me and I�ll growl like a dog with a bone!�
![Page 83: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
�Parker Parker speaking now, and I�m gonna tell ya totally how! I�m wearin� clothes �cause the man says hearrest me, but I don�t feel me �less little Parker Parker is swingin� free.�
Ivy looked at Taylor, �Is he rapping about his .. uhm.. member?�
Taylor blinked, �Huh? Oh, yeah. That�s Parker.� As if that explained everything.
![Page 84: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)
�Sandy Bruty, hot patootie! Big fish lips, and killer hips!�
�Kelly.. you can stop now. Besides, I�ve had a hand in some rather well known legacies myself. It�s not likemy looks were a detriment to them.� Sandy knew Kelly really didn�t mean any harm, but she did get a bitdefensive.
![Page 85: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/85.jpg)
After the party, Zoey spent most of the evening checking herself out in the mirror.
�Daaaamn am I hot. Look out boys, here I come! Hey! Maybe daddy will let me borrow a tank or at least abazooka. That�ll be sure to attract some hot boys, and then we can go blow stuff up!�
For the record, Zoey rolled Pleasure and her lifetime want is to become a General, just like her daddy. To bequite honest, I�m kinda scared at the idea of a pleasure sim who wants to be in the military. You know therehas to be a certain enjoyment of explosives in that case.
![Page 86: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)
Speaking of the military...
Taylor had reached the top of his career and earned his lifetime want, but had started to feel some pressureabout his line of work.
�Look Taylor. Wasimington brass just doesn�t see eye to eye with you. Can�t you let it go and move on?� Ivywas probably his closest friend at work.
�It�s not fair, Ivy. It was a brilliant idea. Cell phones for everyone in the military was a perfect idea. I�m justgoing to retire early and go into a different line of work.� Taylor had made up his mind.
![Page 87: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)
Luckily for him, it was a smooth transition from the military to the world of high business. After dealing withgenerals, politicians and foreign operatives, dealing with some businessmen was a piece of cake.
Subsequently, he also earned a big bonus right off the bat, which ended up helping finish off the Legacinahome.

While Taylor switched jobs, the girls continued on with their daily routines, including playing chess andcheating horribly with each other.
�Zoey, I don�t see anything over there.�
�Keep looking, Vic. I�m sure I saw a social bunny with your name on it.�

�What do you mean it�s snowing outside? We don�t have seasons yet.�
�I swear! I just saw some snowflakes fall.� Victoria quickly swapped a couple of pieces.
They did this constantly with each other.

On the night before Victoria�s birthday, Professor Kelly began having nightmares. Something was wrong andit worked its way deep into her psyche. The only thing she could get from the dream, though, was thatsomething was going to happen to Sandy.
![Page 91: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/91.jpg)
Sandy was at the party the following night, but nothing seemed out of the ordinary. In fact, it seemed like itwas destined to be a roofraiser party.
�C�mon, mom. We�re just waiting for you!� Despite her nonplussed attitude towards Zoey�s growth into ateenager, Victoria honestly couldn�t wait to �get boobs� either.
![Page 92: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/92.jpg)
Victoria grew up well, and with some style. Most teens seem to grow up in rather hideous outfits that theythrow on without thinking about it. Not our Victoria. She chose one of my favorite styles.
She also, for the record, rolled Fortune, with the lifetime want to earn $100,000. She may need to take alesson or two with Dr. Evil if she thinks that will help her take over the Universe.

At one point during the party, Professor Kelly tried to talk to Sandy about her concerns, but Sandy was moreinterested in starting a pillow fight than talking about silly nightmares.
Ominous music played in the distance. What? Why are you looking at me like that?
![Page 94: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/94.jpg)
It would be the last birthday the house would see for a while to come. After all, both girls would be headedto college before turning into adults, and it was still some time before Taylor and Professor Kelly would befacing their own birthdays to elderhood.
The girls helped make sure it was a party to remember.
![Page 95: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/95.jpg)
Life settled into a semblance of normal, with everyone working on their different skills and careers. Ahbijeetwas still a regular visitor, but they learned the depths of his gnome problem when he began stealing theirlawn gnomes, right in front of them.
�Hehehe... evil, evil things. Must .. destroy...�
�Dad, Mr. Deppiesse is talking to himself again.� Victoria whispered to her father as they both painted.
�Shhh. I know, honey. Just ignore him. We�ll get another one when he takes this one home.�
![Page 96: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/96.jpg)
�Must... kill... them all...�
�Psst. Vic.. Mr. Deppiesse is taking another gnome.�
�I know. Dad says just ignore him. He�s harmless. If he comes near me, though, this brush is going into hiseye socket.�
![Page 97: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/97.jpg)
Zoey, being a pleasure sim, had boys and dates on her mind. Eventually, when no suitable boys werepresenting themselves at her beck and call, she consulted with an expert on the issue.
�I know the perfect boy for you, my dear. You two will get along just fabulously. Now, if we could just havethat donation we discussed?� The old lady was a shrewd one.
�Okay, okay. Just as long as I get my first kiss, �kay?�
![Page 98: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/98.jpg)
Unfortunately, Zoey and her blind date, Kent Midlock, didn�t really see eye to eye. Before they even made itinto the front door, Zoey had pulled him into a headlock and started noogieing him.
The gypsy rolled her eyes and walked away, �Good luck with that one.�
![Page 99: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/99.jpg)
Kent eventually did make it into the house, but only to come face-to-face with the other Legacina sister.
�I heard you wouldn�t kiss my sister, dork. Do you know what I do to people who mess with my sister?�
�AAGH! You people are crazy! Please stop giving me noogies and let me go home!�
Eventually they let Kent out of the house alive.
![Page 100: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/100.jpg)
Trying again, Zoey started hanging around with George McCarthy, a sim she met downtown. They seemedto get along well enough, and he even proposed that they go out on a date that night.
�Well, it�s after curfew...�
�So? I didn�t think you�d let that stop a girl like you.�
�Well, no, I didn�t mean that. I just... Of course I�ll go out with you.�
![Page 101: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/101.jpg)
That night, Zoey made sure she was ready for George to pick her up. She even conned her parents intoletting her meditate out by the mailbox. It was some excuse about needing to see the stars or some such.They fell for it, and she got to sneak off into the night with George.
![Page 102: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/102.jpg)
Unfortunately, the date didn�t go nearly as well as she planned.
![Page 103: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/103.jpg)
�Oh man. They�re gonna kill me. They�re gonna ground me and then kill me. Then they�re going to groundme again. And I still didn�t even get a kiss out of him. Come on, I�m supposed to be the hot one.�
Looking up at the sky, Zoey whined, �Voice, you said I was the heir. Why can�t I get any of the good stuff tohappen to me? I just wanted a date and I ended up getting busted by the cops.�
Cheer up, kid. Life gets better after high school, I promise. College will probably be a ton of fun for you.
![Page 104: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/104.jpg)
The next morning, Zoey contemplated the way things were going. There was still a little bit of time beforeshe needed to leave to go to college, but what would it hurt to go early? After all, the voice said college wasa lot more fun than high school.
I didn�t quite mean it like that, Zoey.
�Yeah, but I got busted for sneaking out on a date. If I go to college, I can stay up as late as I want and dowhatever I want, can�t I? And heck, I can even woohoo, right?�
Well... yeah.
![Page 105: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/105.jpg)
�That settles it, then. I�m going to college and no one can stop me. I�m outta here, man.�
Wow. I never thought it would be that easy to convince a pleasure sim to go to college.
�Wait.. what did you say?�
Too late, kid. You already called the taxi.
![Page 106: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/106.jpg)
�Maaaan. This sucks. Now I�ve got to go to four more years of school, just because some stupid voice in myhead conned me into thinking it was the right idea. Stupid voice.�
Nyah nyah. I know you are, but what am I?
![Page 107: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/107.jpg)
With Zoey off to college, Victoria decided to do some hormone inducing experimentation of her own.
�So, George. I hear you got busted before you could kiss my sister. That true?� Victoria batted her eyelashesat the young store clerk.
�Well, I meant to kiss her, so don�t noogie me, okay?� George was a bit nervous. He�d heard about theKent�s experience with the Legacina girls.
![Page 108: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/108.jpg)
�Okay. But you�re going to make up for it by kissing at least one Legacina, and I don�t mean my dad.� Thehearts began flying as Victoria made her move. Subtle as a sledgehammer, that one.
Luckily for George, he was agreeable to this particular proposition.
![Page 109: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/109.jpg)
�It feels so strange to have our daughters growing up like this, Kelly. I mean, it seems like just yesterdaythey were in diapers and playing cops and robbers.� Professor Kelly and Taylor took advantage of theirnearly empty nest to make with the nookie in random places in the house again.
�Well, we *could* always keep trying for another baby.� Kelly smiled slyly as she leaned in to nuzzle herhusband.
�I thought you were a little too close to your birthday to have another baby, sweetie?�
�Sure, but that doesn�t mean we can�t try, does it?� Kelly arched an eyebrow at Taylor.
�Oh... OH! Heheh. Woo and a hoo, then, hmm?�
![Page 110: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/110.jpg)
�OH MY GOD, Zoey! You will never believe what they were doing when I got home from school today.RIGHT THERE ON THE POOL TABLE!!!! I�m like never going to be able to play pool again.� Victoria called hersister in a quite frantic state.
�I don�t care if it�s early, I am so coming to join you today. I don�t want to see wrinkly old butts doing thattype of thing again, and certainly not the wrinkly old butts of my parents.�
![Page 111: The Pseudo Legacy - Chapter One](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051015/554c97c9b4c905b80b8b4d03/html5/thumbnails/111.jpg)
Before the end of the day, the taxi arrived to whisk Victoria off to join her sister at Sim State. While bothparents felt a little sad to be wishing their baby daughter farewell as she went off to college, Victoria couldhear the giddy giggles before the door closed behind her.
�Gah. And they say teenagers are hormonal.�
