Welcome to the Artist at Heart alphebetacy! This is my second attempt at a legacy, since my first was lost when I had to reinstall the sims.

Anyway, let’s meet our founder…. To be. He’s not founder yet.His name is Alan Logans. He’s a pleasure sim with a lifetime want of reaching the top of the culinary career. His turn ons are blondies and brunettes, and he’s turned off by full face makeup.His personality is 8:0:7:3:7

Page 2: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“So, I’ll be living here?”

Yeah. It’s small, and there’s not many rooms so not a lot of dormies for ya.

“I don’t mind. I have zero in outgoing, remember? I’m gonna get my major set up…”

Page 3: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Not locking it?

“No, I trust others won’t intrude. Now, can I pick my major and play the arcade?”

No. You pick your major then socialize with your new roommates.

“……”

Page 4: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Got one?

“Art. It’s an art themed legacy, isn’t it? Despite the fact that the generations to come will actually be named after anime characters.”

Good point. Now go meet people.“But….”Go.

Page 5: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“U-Uh…. No, I’ve never kissed anyone before. Or dated. And I’m pretty sure that means I have yet to woohoo. These are rather personal questions.”

“Man. Wit yer looks you could be a playa maaaaaaan.”

(His personality is set to match my cousins, maaan)

Page 6: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Whoa, you’re from Port White Water? The place that has the White Water mansion? You live there?”

“Well, not the mansion, but I’ve lived in Port White Water all my life. I kinda miss it already.”

Page 7: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Meet Stalker Ben.

“Hello, nice to meet you. You seem kind of familiar….And why are you staring at me like that?”

“…….”

Page 8: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Jeez. Already?

“I don’t want to talk to anyone. I just wanna paint. And juggle, for some odd reason.”

Well, you are a pleasure sim. Ya know, these slides have been kinda short in words. I’ll try to pick it up.

Page 9: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“You know, you remind me of someone….. Uhm… Chris Ng! Ever met him? You look exactly like him!”

“No, I haven’t. “

“Shame. You could be twins, Seriously, if you ever meet him, make sure you don’t confuse him for a mirror.”

Page 10: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

This is Chris Ng. Anyone else see the ‘twinness’ here?Yeah, me niether. Anyway, go meet him.

“Haven’t I met enough people? I just want to paint….”

Page 11: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“You’re…. Chris Ng? That girl said I looked exactly like you.”

“Whoa, it’s true! We’re like….twins. Awesome. Can I call you bro? I bet people would believe us.”

“No. You may not.

Page 12: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Yeah, I don’t even have a witty caption for this. Use your imagination.

Page 13: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Hmm. He really did look like Chris. He even smells like him. I wonder if he’ll need those socks back…”

Yeah…. Okay then…

Page 14: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Smart boy.

“By the way, you’ve been hovering over me this whole time. I swear I packed an extra pair of socks…. But I can’t find them. Any idea where they are?”

……

Page 15: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

It took about 30 sim minutes for this to become the hotspot of the dorms.

“A llama? How am I supposed to study? This is too noisy and crowded….”

Oh stop complaining and just paint already…

Page 16: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Thank you.”

Page 17: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Fanservice~

“Do you mind!? Please get out! Can’t you drop that camera for just a few minutes!?”

Not at all.

Page 18: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Wait, why are you here? It’s 4:30am, shouldn’t you be sleeping?”

This is Brandon, the dorm cook person. “It’s my job. It’s, supposed to be here this early. Why are you up?”

“I’m a night person. But anyway, you look tired. I could cover for you. I have a bit of cooking experience.

Page 19: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

And so, Alan got stuck with kitchen duty. By the way, has this happened to anyone else before? Alan turns into a redhead in this uniform. And before I had someone with black hair turn into a blond. Darn glitches.

Page 20: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Cooking experience my bubkes….

“Oh be quiet…. You distracted me.”

Oh sure, they always blame the narrator!

Page 21: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Stalker Ben Appearance #2

“Why are you sitting across from me….?”

“…..”

Oh be nice. He has to stomach that breakfast of yours after all. And maybe he wouldn’t follow you if you didn’t walk around in shirtless PJs.

Page 22: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

So this is what the workers do when students cover for them. Looks fun. I think.

“I haven’t gotten to play that yet….”

Aw, maybe one day. But we’ve got a lot to focus on. First we-“Actually, I kind of want to go to the water park….”

Page 23: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

But that’s all the way back in your old neighborhood! Just don’t be late for class.

“I won’t. I love this place. I always came here as a kid. I would play here until it got dark and my parents would call the police to come find me.”

Aw, precious childhood memories~

Page 24: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Pathetic.The swing is taken up by adults and elders. What about the kids?

Page 25: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Hey look! It’s the Garden Club member from hell! Armando Cox! I dislike him.

“Mm, how come?”

Just cause. Nice boot.

“Hush…..”

Page 26: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

………………….

“Well, it’s fun!”

Bah…..

“Didn’t you say you were going to add more text per slide?”

Page 27: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Okay, attempts at more text….

After the park of boring nothingness, I dragged Alan to the campus coffee shop. Which was a good idea, since he met his first secret society member. I forgot her name. I think it was Asia. Either way, I want Alan in the society, so he’ll hafta turn up the charm.

Page 28: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

And for someone with zero points in outgoing, he has a lot of charm. Maybe this is where the nice points kick in. She’s still being a bit of a bother.

Page 29: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Please tell me that’s not the boot.

“U-Uh…. Well….”

Page 30: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“She liked it….”

…….No comments.

Page 31: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Ooh, another member! And she’s pretty. I managed to catch her name, Katy Patch, but she left the lot before Alan could even talk to her. Boo.

Page 32: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Luckily, the coffee shop seems to be the official secret society hangout. This here is Mackenzie. I think. I do not remember how to spell it.

Page 33: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Secret society hangout. Seriously.

Page 34: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Stalker Appearance #3.

“Seriously, dude, stop following me. I’m not…. Homosexual, or anything like that…”

“………….”

Page 35: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Hey, I remember you. From the coffee shop.”

“Yeah, glad you remember me from 5 minutes ago. Anyway, I came to give you this letter. Call this number in a few minutes. And make sure to look pretty.”

“Uhm. Okay. Creator, how does a guy look pretty?”

Page 36: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“H-Hello? I was given this number to call…. And uh….. Huh? You’re coming over? Okay then…”

Who’s coming?

“No idea.”

Well….. Get pretty….

Page 37: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Wow. Pretty.Hey, it’s Katy!

“Nice tux. Going out?” Katy laughed, raising an eyebrow and Alan’s attire.

“Uh…. I was told to look pretty. I don’t really like formal wear at all.”

Page 38: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Stalker Appearance #4

“Evil woman must be stopped.”

“My god, he talks.”“Something wrong? Should we go outside? I need to talk to you anyway.”

Page 39: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Alright. Wait here. I need to go back inside.”“Okay.”

….And you’re waiting because….?

“She told me too?”

I thought I was in charge….

Page 40: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Oh my god! Chicken lady attack! Chicken lady attack!”

Page 41: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Owch! Hey, what did I do to you!? Who are you anyway!?”

Page 42: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Okay! I’m sorry I yelled! Please let me go, I didn’t do anything! Oh man….. KATY!! ….BEN!? Creator….?

Yeah, don’t look at me.

“How can I? You’re just a voice…..”

Page 43: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“I’m kinda new to getting arrested, but isn’t this done with a police car….”

Ugh for one line slides.

Page 44: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Hehe…..”

Page 45: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Oh…. A secret society? Katy, you were in on this? I was scared, someone could have told me!”

“Duh. Secret Society. Not very bright are you?”

“Doug, stop insulting the new guy.”

Page 46: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Sorry if I scared you. It’s just a stupid tradition.”

“Ah well….. no, it’s okay. Tradition is tradition.”

“He changed his mind as soon as she hugged him…”Yeah, I know. Nice orange pigtails…

Page 47: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

The first thing he did was go catch fireflies. Indoors. Whatever floats his boat…. I guess.

Page 48: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Despite the fact that it’s not an easel, Alan seems to enjoy the new camera. I guess capturing still life is just as artistic as painti- is that a picture of Katy?

“N-No!”

Page 49: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Enjoying yourself?

“The dorm only had one computer, and it was always taken. And I need to finish this term paper before the exam tomorrow. I would’ve finished it before, but I was busy getting arrested.”

Page 50: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Finally, due to the lack of beds in the society, I decided it was time for Alan to go back to the dorms. I’m still trying to figure out why Katy and Al are so close. They have had very little interaction, and they don’t even have any bolts.

Page 51: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Well, I’ve got to head back. Maybe…. We’ll see each soon?”

“….Alan, wait!”

Page 52: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Goodbye, Al. You better call me soon.”

“….Guh….mmrruuugghhhh”

I love how shy he is. I think he said he promises, Kat.

“Great.”I’m sorry, did she just hear me?

Page 53: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“M’lady, I swear that I will ne’er forget this night. For it has been one of the happiest of my life.”

Well…. Okay then. Ne’er?

Page 54: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

It took all of five seconds for Alan to reunite with the easel. Seriously, he’s in love with that thing. I may hafta hijack it one day.

Why is the tip of his hair pink? Not that it’s a bad look….

Page 55: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Ta-da!”

Great! What is it?“It’s Katy!”

…..Don’t ever show that to her. And you better work on those creativity points. If you don’t max creativity by the end of college, you can’t be the legacy founder.

Page 56: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Gussying up?

“Yeah, Katy’s coming over. By the by, I’ve been meaning to ask you. Max creativity is the thing in our legacy, as well as holidays. Valentines day in the middle of spring, a pool/BBQ party in the middle of summer, halloween on the last day of fall, and christmas on the last day of winter. Why haven’t we done any of that yet?”

I don’t have the holiday CC stuff yet.

Page 57: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Aw, the secret society outfit again? Do you ever take it off~?Ya know, one day, I’m going to get you out of those clothes.”

…….

“N-No wait. That sounded bad! I didn’t mean it like that!”

Page 58: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Because I’m stupid, I didn’t get many pictures of their dream date at the coffee shop. This is the only one I got. For a couple with no bolts, they seem to get it on easily….

But anyway, the final freshman exam starts in a few hours, and you never actually completed that term paper.

Page 59: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Though, I’m not quite sure if he’ll be able to focus now. Luckily, he finished and it promised an A+ for his freshman year. You should rest now…

Page 60: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

G’night Al.

“Good night……..zZzZzZz…..”

Page 61: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“So, would you kindly explain to the readers how I got here? On this empty lot, which will soon be a greek house.”

Why, certainly. You see…..

Page 62: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

The both of us got tired of the old ‘study room’ and all the books laying around. It also got crowded, and Alan rarely got the computer.

(Stalker Appearance #5)

Page 63: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

The kitchen was no better, since everyone made their own food despite having the kitchen worker. And the cow set off the sprinkler at least once a day.

Page 64: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

‘Nuff said.

Page 65: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

And eventually roaches made their way to these crappy dorms. Even with Alan and a main cleaning, this place was the pits.

Page 66: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“And maybe we should explain my new lifetime want?”

Ah yes. Well, he constantly had thought bubbles of marriage and kids. And since he’s a legacy sim, I decided to do the junior roll, and gave him family. His new lifetime want is to have 6 grandchildren. Good luck with that.

“Even Katy too kthe news pretty well. I was sort of worried about this.”

Page 67: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Well, goodbye Ben. This is the last time we’ll see each other. I believe the stalker appearance count is up to six now?”

Yep. Now, can I show the hot air balloon? PLEEEASE!?

“F-Fine… fine.”

Page 68: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“I still can’t believe you’re making me do this In the rain….”

Oh shush, and get in. This is a hot air balloon that I downloaded from…. someplace. I can’t wait to try it out!

Page 69: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Hey! I’m actually rising!”

Yay for custom animation CC!Oh, I also need to get you that ferris wheel~

Page 70: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Still going higher. How high does it go?”

No idea.

Page 71: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Kinda high now….”

Page 72: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Still getting higher….”

Page 73: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“I’d like to get down now!”

Page 74: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“I want down! I want down! I WANT DOWN!”

And now that we’re all caught up, let’s go back to the greek house.

“Did we ever named the greek house?”

No.

Page 75: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Sadly, Alan was broke, so not much stuff. Most of this was stolen from the dorms. Including his precious easel. But I gotta love cheap CC. A double bed for $50!

Page 76: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“I…. have to use this stuff?”

Yes. It was cheap cc. Don’t worry, the bathroom will be the first thing I replace.

Page 77: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Luckily, Alan has gotten a lot better at painting, so we can actually sell his stuff for a decent amount of cash~

Page 78: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Or, we could, if the gym couch didn’t barge in to make him work out. At least it was in good timing, he was getting a little pudgy.

“Hey!”

Page 79: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

She’s gone now you know….

Page 80: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Aw, only $200 simmies?

“Well, I still have a few points to earn. New bathroom?”

Not yet.

“Aw…..”

Page 81: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Ya know, I’ve been thinking. It’s such a shame to waste this cheap double bed…. Sooo….

Page 82: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Listen, I know this is weird but…. Well, my create won’t shush about it. I’m really sorr- eh? You want to? O-Okay….. Then…. I’ll make dinner?”

Page 83: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Hey look! People can actually faint from happiness!

Page 84: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Whuh-whuh-whuh?”

Get up! You got a pretty, willing girl outside! And what a feminine why to recover from a faint….

Page 85: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Wow, getting randy already? I think I’m starting to get used to these one line slides. That‘s bad. But I’ll write more once I get more of a plot going. Give me time.

Page 86: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Alan, look, it’s snowing outside. It’s beautiful~”

“Mmph? *swallows* Ah, I’ve never really been a fan of snow. I’m sensitive to the cold.”

Yeah. Shut up and woohoo.

“…K-Katy…..”

Page 87: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

What…. are you doing?

“Katy Patch, I…. I know I’m not really the perfect man. And I may not be able to satisfy you, but I truly love you…..”

Page 88: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“So, if you’re willing to give me a chance… would you….”

Page 89: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Marry me?”

Page 90: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Oh, Alan! I-It’s beautiful! It must have cost you a fortune!”

Well, it’s not like sim rings even cost anyth-

“……”

I’ll shush…..

Page 91: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Of course I’ll marry you! Oh Alan, I love you!”

Will you woohoo now?

Page 92: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Katy…. I’m sorry but…. My creator really is a pervert. And we did sort of plan for this. I know I’m horrible for asking this but….”

“It’s alright. I understand. Trust me, I’ve met my fair share of legacy sims. But none as sweet as you.”

Page 93: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“……….”“……….”

Uhm…. Awkweird?Hey Alan! If you woohoo her, you’ll finally get her out of those secret society clothes!

Page 94: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Bingo.

Page 95: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“….. Good work.”“Nice job.”“Good effort.”

Oh god….

Page 96: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Katy looks adorable in her pajamas and Alan looks adorable in anything he wears. Though, why he’s wearing outerwear, I’ll never know. It’s summer!

Page 97: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Ha-ha! I finally got you out of those secret society clothes!”

“Okay! Okay! You win1 Now stop tickling me!”

And I’m the only one who notices the irony of Alan suddenly being in the society outfit?

Page 98: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Huh….

I can got for the shirt, but not that pants. I never liked camo. I kinda miss her society outfit….

Page 99: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Stupid Llama.

Page 100: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

I wanted to see what would happen if I had Alan paint himself painting himself.

It turned out quite interesting. But I still sold it.

Page 101: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Stupid cow.

Page 102: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Okay, seriously, just because this is a greek house doesn’t mean we don’t have a working doorbell!

Page 103: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

And that’s it! Alan finally maxed out creativity, making him the official heir to the Logan throne. I love that little hat. Oh, by the way, how come you never had a toga party?

“Don’t like them.”

Katy in a bedsheet.

Page 104: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Well, that was easy. The first Toga party of Alan’s college years and it’s in the final semester of his senior year. I think it’s about time we get a placeholder. After a bit of thought, I decided on Macky. I hate her full name. I can’t friggen spell it.

Page 105: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Okay, you may hug your fiancé, then find a placeholder. By the way, that’s what he changed into after he made the party call. Whatever works…

Page 106: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“So, you don’t mind pledging to be a placeholder?”“Of course not! Being frozen in time sounds awesome!”“Okay….”

Hey. Free influence. You can have her write your term paper while you work on cooking, charisma and mechanical.“How many skills must I learn?”Lots.

Page 107: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

A little while after the party, Alan maxed his cooking skill. It was around this time that I wanted to try the ‘write novel’ thing on the computer, though he’s never completed a novel before.

Page 108: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Although apparently the novel he’s been working on since freshman year paid off big time. And sorry for the stupid, build mode picture. I just wanted to show the basic upgrade.

Page 109: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Painting again?

“Yeah.”

No. Go study mechanical. You need it if you want to be an artist.

Page 110: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“There, I studied. Can I paint now?”

Ugh, you’re impossible. Just paint. Maybe we’ll get you a bathrub.

Page 111: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Are you sure you don’t mind doing my term paper?”

She just got started?

“Not at all. Besides, you graduate in a few hours. You should enjoy yourself.”

Page 112: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

And he did just that. This has been his first bath since he started college. It’s always been showers.

“I feel so relaxed~”

Yeah well, finals are in a couple of hours.

Page 113: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Okay. I can do this. I can do this. I can do this.”

Go do it.

“I’m prepping!”

Page 114: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Wish me luck, hun~!”

“Mmph!”

Now, is it just me, or has he gotten more outgoing….?

Page 115: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Uggghh…”

Tired?

“Beyond. But hey. I’m finally done with college. Can we throw a party?”

You? The man with zero in outgoing!? Okay.

Page 116: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

“Well, I think it’s time. I’m gonna miss you Macky.”

“Yeah yeah, no sappiness. Just make sure you make some good roommates for me. And where’s the makeover I was promised?”

Page 117: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Here she is~I think she’s cute, though I don’t know what she’s worried about. Since I’m a booger, you’ll have to wait until generation two moves into the greek house to find out her stats.

Page 118: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

One last painting, huh?

“It symbolizes how hectic my college life has been.”

It’s the same painting you’ve been doing the past few years….

Page 119: The Artist at Heart : Chapter 1

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! You said you could grow up!?

“You went to the bathroom and left triple speed on. We blew past the party. But it was a good one.”

Aw man… Well…. I guess this is it….. At least you grew up hot. Now it’s time to start the legacy. Until the next chapter folks! See ya!
