Wishkabibble update: Gens. 8 and 9
Watch and be amazed as my addictive and avoidant personality disorders interact and cause me to play Ishes round the clock while nothing else gets done! I think I'll give my Nightlife disks to my husband to hide once Gen. 10 is done. You think I'm kidding!?

So where were we? Various Generation 7 male cousins were living in their lovely pink house and making potential Gen. 8 heiresses. Hari Krishna's daughter: jowly Sybil. Dobby's daughter: far-too-pretty red-headed Bubble. Brash's daughter: razor-cheeked hawk-nosed Deelish. Deelish and Bubble were cousins, and second cousins to Sybil.

Time for the Ishes of Eastwick to find some men and get to work on Generation 9!

Deelish was quite taken with Alvin the Manly Maid. Can you blame her? I think it's the gloves.


When she "smooched" him, he fluttered his silly pink gloves and I laughed and laughed!

(and what I love best about him is his "everyday" outfit is the purple maid's outfit, and his "working" outfit is the pink one. They make him feel pretty.)

Sybil snapped up Ira Whatshisname while still a teenager - hey, it beats going to school.


Meanwhile, Bubble contented herself with pure, virginal activities like flower arranging...


...and luring hapless neighbors into her jailbaity web. Kennedy Cox is all over her like ants on underaged honey. Are you surprised? Yeah, me either.


"NO CAMERAS!!!" Sorry.


Sybil grew up well, jowly and lippy with a flat nose.


Deelish and Ivy Copur watch as Sybil and Ira get it on. Deelish is quite impressed with Ira's performance. "Call me," she signs.


Time for babies!! First, Deelish and Alvin had twin boys, whom they named Ypsilanti and Mishawaka. No baby pictures, but here are child-pics:

Ypsi: "Look away! I'm hideous!" Not yet, Ypsi, but you will be. Oh yes, you will be.


Misha, who looks half like Alvin and half like a regular person.

For comparison:


Bubble and Kennedy Cox took a shot at heir-production but failed miserably. The most that could be said for baby Kitsch was that he could be used as a nightlight. Seriously, that is one *pale* baby.


Kitsch grew into this:


Nuh-uh, sorry, thank you for playing. Kitsch and Bubble discussed their options, realizing that they were far too attractive for this house of horrors. Kitsch advised packing their bags, and they shook on it and left.


Next up was Sybil and Ira, who made baby Shiva. Bubble aged her up in a bowl of macaroni and cheese, an ancient tradition that nobody had ever heard of before.


Maybe macaroni prevents the uglies? Because Shiva is far, far too cute. Further proof that extreme features cancel out...



Sybil was annoyed at the gorgeousness of Shiva, so she took some extreme steps to increase her chances of producing the heir and obtaining the fame and wealth that should be her due. She was, after all, the last remaining Keeper of the Wishkabibble Jowls. Luckily, Alvin's price for his cooperation was very reasonable.


The result was little Shamu, who was okay but just not what I was looking for. Sorry, Sybil. Sorry, jowls. *sob*


So where does that leave us? Let's look at the kids as they got older.

A teenaged Ypsilanti shows off his skinny body and pointy cheeks and wonderful wonderful nose:



Mishawaka is not too bad but I just am not feeling it.


And did I mention they both rolled romance and want to woo-hoo 20 sims? Yeah, not going to happen.

The boys live with mom Deelish and dad Alvin (not married! living in sin!!! *gasp*) and Sybil and her kids. Every few days, Alvin gets himself into trouble with either Sybil or Deelish, and I arrive in time to see slapping and sobbing. Good times.



Sybil scowls at the prissy way Alvin eats his pizza. "I can't believe I actually *paid* him to touch me!"


Deelish, having reached her LTW of earning 100,000 simoleons (my first time!! w00t!) and the top of the athletic career, begins the task of documenting her family history. Her novel will be titled ISHKABIBBLE and will trace the Ish history from poor unfortunate Wish I through the present day. It will be a tale of love and loss, treachery and romance, hope and regret. Also, much ugly. It will sell like the hotcakes of which Deelish is so fond.


I have more pictures (including outtakes, forthcoming) but let's end it here with a lovely portrait of the Generation 9 heir, Ypsilanti. Ypsi's mission, should he choose to accept it (as if he has a choice!) is to knock up the three most unlovely ladies in Ishpeming. We're almost done, and then the creator can finally rest. :)
