Iskabibble 6.1 (45/171 pics)
It's been a while (like, "over a year" a while) since my last post. Sorry about that? XD I've been playing a lot, just not sharing. I play the Ishkaspares a LOT. I swear I play the Ishkaspares more than the current gen (I'm on gen 8 now, I think). But I have a duty to all who follow Ishkabibbles to finish my tale as I believe so many already have, and then play spares all I want. So here's the last update I made, here's allll my Ishka-updates if you're into that kinda thing, you sexy beast you, and here we go with Generation 7's feckless heir, York Ishkabibble.








This not being her. I passed over York's sister London, whom I'd originally pegged as heir, but then decided "Actually... she's too much in the Ishka-mold. Gotta break free!"



York finds her new heirdom a subject of such hilarity she may break her impressive cheekbones laughing.

York: "First I saw London, then I saw France, then I saw my-sister-the-former-heir's underpants!"

You know, she's simple, that one.



Chalcedon, heir of Generation 6, has been set to skilling relentlessly since he aged. He's a Knowledge Sim, so that's fine by him.



Besides, when he's not skilling, he gets embroiled in awkward conversations.

Brook: Why don't you do it like the first time no more?
Chalcedon: *wilt*



Devastated by aspersions cast upon his competency in the bedroom, he accepts Death's cup of java...



...and casts a hopeful eye upon the Hula Zombies, whom he hopes will be more accepting of his old age than Brooke.



Oh, yeah, now you cry, Brooke. Now you cry.



You know what, you great snake? I think you're gonna be just fine.



Meanwhile, Lucy Hanby, the former maid, plowed by both Chalcedon and his father before him, is truly heartbroken by the loss of the Generation 6 heir. Brooke shed a few crocodile tears, but Lucy really commits, hitting the ground and howling her aspirational failure.



The Therapist: "Mein gott. Ze titsen, zey are at your knees."



Well, if there's one thing guaranteed to lift a household's spirits, it's a big fat inheritance. I think Brooke finds "inheritance money" a turn-on. I wouldn't be surprised if Chalcedon's death actually increased her chemistry with him.



Puppy: When people run in circles, it's a very, very mad world.



I really liked the little dining area with its stupid little rugs, lol.



The puppy grows up and by god, I've forgotten its name, but it's either Libby, Leo, or Gemma. Libeomma. That sounds like a cystic growth.



Bazongas! What's good, Generation 1!



York's fishing trip at the local cemetery, Graves of the Lovely, is largely uneventful



except for the fact that our Gen 7 genius is fishing in a thunderstorm along with Onion Vale's best and brightest.



The dog thinks it's hilarious too.



Brooke, entranced by her own attractiveness. I think I was peeking through a fence to get this shot, by the way. Maybe.



York looks broken by the thought that she's achieved anything, let alone a silver gardening badge. She's as pokey and elbowy as a garden gnome.



That pimple's in the third eye chakra! SHE WILL HAVE VISIONS!



Oh, and here's the dog Brooke bought to breed with Libeomma.



I don't know what I named it, so let's call it Stringthing.



Meanwhile, Brooke ages. "Oh God!" she weeps as she runs into the streets like an asylum escapee.



"The therapist was right! Mein titsen, mein titsen!"



York, what do you do with piles of leaves? Here, I'll help. You can a) burn, b) rake, or c)...

York: York... eat?
...Righto.



Anyway, Stringthing has twins with Libeomma, named Haverford and John Jay.



Here's Haverford,



here's John Jay,



and here's their complementary ears! In the background, Stringthing is beside itself. "WASH ME!" A string of floss should be sufficient towel for the whip-thin beast.



York grows up and, come to think of it, Stringthing would be a great nickname for her too. Daaamn. I think I made the right choice in switching heir hats. Looking at her makes me want to devise a proof regarding cheekbone circumference or something.



It's been a long time since I had a female heir. And I'm going to make the most of it. See that rooster in the background? That cock? Yeah? You do? Good. Think about it.



Here's Rooster #1, Peter Sims. His face has the geographical quality I like in a face, lots of random crags and cliffs to get caught on, and two entrancing whirpools for eyes, if you're into that.



York beds him in short order. They both look like they've had better in their life.



Mystery puppies I completely forgot about until I looked through these pics again! It's Asia, Hunter, and Corbin!



They aren't as funny as the first set, even if their ears continue to be amusingly complementary :(



York, inspired by her personal mantra of doggy-see-doggy-doo, blats out the firstborn of Generation 8. This generation's naming themes is that of professional occupations and titles, and so we have Doctor Ishkabibble. York is very proud.



She is so proud that she immediately calls up the Animal Control officer Stephen Gould (who has spent so much time rescuing dogs from the Ishkamanse, after all), rides him like the Medusa at Six Flags, and knocks herself out. Er, up.



York: "Doctor? You're a doctor, right? Can you tell if I'm pregnant or not?"
Doctor: *coo, gurgle, fart*



York: Brooke, it's okay, you don't have to die. My son's a doctor. He's about four months old and he's really good.
Brooke: *sees bucket, kicks it*



Doctor: *coo, burp, coo* Another patient, lost! Curses, the epic tragedy of it all! If only I'd had my team on my hands, my equipment, anything, this death could have been averted, this elderly woman saved! GRAMMA! I BARELY KNEW THEE!



Doctor: *fart, gurgle, poop* Oh, by the way, Mom. You're pregnant.



York: Really, son? And you're a big boy now, too!

Doctor looks just like his papa. A bit disappointing. I wanted a monstrous melding, not unlike what occurred with the dog...



Death: DOG. I CAN GIVE YOU GREATER SCOPE FOR NON EUCLIDEAN GEOMETRIES THAN EVEN YOUR ABNORMALLY TWISTED TAIL AND HILARIOUSLY ENGORGED BREAST CAN IMAGINE. COME SERVE A NEW MASTER IN THE DISTORTED DIMENSION OF YOUR BIRTHRIGHT.



York: No! York... miss... DOG!! AQUAAAA!

I miss Aqua too. ;_; And later, when I lose a good amount of tombstones, I manage to keep Aqua's, happily.


Anyway, because Gen 7 just has SO MANY PICTURES, this update will be split into three parts. Next part within the week!

Oh, and I went back into the game after I wrote the update and found out that Libeomma's real name is Madd, and Stringthing's real name is Tirol Choco. Madd is after the band Mad at Gravity, and Tirol Choco is after a delicious brand of Japanese sweets that just happens to sound like the name of an Aztec god.

Yay! You're back in business! You have no idea how long i've waited for more Iskabibbles :D

The Therapist: "Mein gott. Ze titsen, zey are at your knees."
That literally made me burst! :D

You know, you should keep Libeomma as the dog's name, for some reason i feel it suits it really well ;)

"The therapist was right! Mein titsen, mein titsen!"
How in the world had i forgotten how hilarious you are!

(Yes, i wrote that during i read the update :D)
Please, please, pretty please, next one up ASAP!

*grin* Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed. (I don't actually know any German, lol) Actually in my game Libeomma/Madd is currently named "Madd (Girl)" so I could know what gender she is while just hovering over her!

The hilarity in that picture, I think I was close to dying of laughter, but it's okay, Doctor saved me. Why is she running around like that, haha?

Libeoemma does sound like some kind of disease. I nominate that be the name of whatever disease good ole doctor is going to discover. I BELIEVE IN HIM AND HIS BRAIN.

This was all too funny! :D

I have no idea why she ran around howling, other than being raving bonkers, which is, of course, an excellent trait to inculcate in the Ishkabibble, I feel.

Lord knows Doctor believes in himself and his brain! I'll have to do something about that plotline when I post about my Ishkaspares, lol

I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

1. I agree, the pair of Brooke-running pics were hilarious! :D

2. Awwww, Chalcedon. Mean ol' Brooke, making fun of your old-man manhood. May the Hula Zombies service you well and frequently in the afterlife.

3. "Puppy: When people run in circles, it's a very, very mad world." Tears for Fears! cute pic too... tiny isolated pup...

4. Bazongas! Hello my man! *high fives* *hand passes through*

5. PIMPLE VISIONS! O_O It must have been the bacon in the soap. "You shall reveal your secrets to Pustulio!"

6. Of all your hilarious dogs, I think Haverford is my favorite... after Aqua, who is my doggie lover. Stringthing makes hilarious faces though. That one of her all stinky behind Haverford and John Jay... :D

7. Peter Sims looks like my Russ Ishkabibble! (Russ is a married-in burglar)

8. "...rides him like the Medusa at Six Flags" That sounds sexy and scary at the same time... :D

9. "Doctor: *coo, burp, coo* Another patient, lost! Curses, the epic tragedy of it all! If only I'd had my team on my hands, my equipment, anything, this death could have been averted, this elderly woman saved!"

:D :D :D

10. I don't know, Doctor could turn out to have a mix. It's hard to tell at toddler stage, but he looks like he might have the big dopey Ish eyes, at least.

Can't wait for the next installment!

Aww, I forgot how much I missed your numbered lists, lol! I just had to include the puppy pic, because I thought it was so cute... although I prefer the original song by Gary Jules to the Tear for Fears remake. And I miss having the ghost of Bazongas roaming around since I lost all my tombstones :( Haverford is pretty freaking dorky looking- he should be the fetch dog for a laboratory or something. I'm glad you enjoyed it- and that you're still around commenting, lol. I am not worthy! I am not worthy!

Aw, I'm sorry Bazongas was among the lost. :(

I thought the Tears for Fears version was the original. My bad! I really like the one on the Donnie Darko soundtrack. Is that Gary Jules? I could just look this shit up, I know.

You are SO worthy! *bows at your feet repeatedly and flamboyantly*

It's been so long since I've read about Ishes! "Ze titsen"... hahaha :) Good luck with the razor-sharp cheekbones... they're tough to maintain but oh-so-worth it.

Oh, they truly are worth it. First I wanted to save the wide Ish eyes, now it's the razor-sharp cheekbones... it is a comfort to me, the amount of Ishkaspares I have running around accidentally slicing things with their cheekbones. Thanks for reading and commenting :)

I'm liking death's conversation with dog, very much indeed.

And Doctor, lol, well he's full of personality too.

Oh oh and Brooke moaning about her new saggies - that was sheer genius. "The therapist was right! Mein titsen, mein titsen!" *chortles*

I didn't even know Doctor would end up having that personality- it just sort of happened as I wrote and sought for captions. Glad you enjoyed doggie's fireside chat with Death ;) and thank you for reading and commenting!

The Brooke escapee pics had me snorting. And I LOVE Haverford.

But the baby's monologues. . .yeah, good comedy right there.

Hee hee, it's fun having you back and maybe, just maybe, you'll finish your Ishes (you're going to sit at the table until you do, and I'm going to wrap them up and serve them to you again for breakfast if it gets so late you have to go to bed).
