About
Description
Rughetta Bianchetti is a very nice lady with two lovely adult sons and a sad smile. She's done well for herself, all in all, building a pretty successful writing career and a happy, stable family life. But the death of her husband at the hand of the mob, and subsequent alienation from the rest of her family from having to go into witness protection, left a heavy shadow on her heart that will likely never go away completely. But even if the sadness remains, love and success fills her days with enough joy to not only carry on, but thrive.
Personality
Sweet natured, thoughtful, and creative, Rughetta is a charming woman who easily courts respect and affection from others. She has an impish sense of humor that shows through in her fiction writing, and though she can be serious, she is never mean or cold-hearted. With so little family left to lean on, she pours all the love she has into taking care of her sons, who she treasures dearly.

Story
Past
Belladonna Romanesco was the only daughter of a loving and kind couple, and though she had no siblings, she grew up with her older cousin, Santino, to play with and talk to. They were very close growing up, and it wasn't until they were both grown that they began growing apart. Bella wasn't sure what led to Santino's plans growing in magnitude, what led to his ambition taking the turn it did, but when she was 21, he suddenly left town for a life of crime.
Now alone, she turned to the internet and fandom for social enrichment, and she found Donzelle Agnello in a Twin Peaks fanzine circle. The two of them got along extremely well, excitedly talking about theories, analyses, and character pairings. An avid fanfic writer, Belladonna eagerly shared her fics with him, and he would read them with equal ardor. And in between the fan talk came friend talk, which eventually became romantic talk. Belladonna and Donzelle fell in love, and eventually married. Three years later, he was murdered by Santino Romanesco. Belladonna never knew the exact identity of her husband's killer, all she knew was that he was gone, and that she now had to change her name and flee across the country to give birth to her twin sons. But give birth she did, and she worked hard to raise them into good boys, and then into good men. And so Rughetta Bianchetti, as she now had to call herself, was not alone, not really, but knowing what was taken from her nonetheless dulled a little bit of the shine on her heart.
PResent
Rughetta has managed to get back into writing, and has made a relatively successful career for herself as a novelist. Her sons, now grown, are the good men she raised them to be, and she loves them both dearly. The three of them live together happily as a family, and even though she never remarried, she's not too lonely. She doesn't know that Santino, or his own family, have shacked up in the same city, or that he's been avoiding her out of shame.
Trivia
- I ended up getting into Twin Peaks in order to properly convey what being a fan of it is like lmao.
- While trying to draw what Filone and Asiago's mother is like, I ended up drawing a whole wardrobe's worth of clothes before I settled on one. Because of this, she has the most outfits out of all my ocs.
- Asiago takes after her looks (eyes with negative canthal tilt, straight hair) while Filone takes after Donzelle's looks.
- The idea for "Belladonna Romanesco" being Rughetta's previous name is from Bunburrying.
- She is milf.
Relationships
Rughetta adores her sons, and they adore her. Being a single mom was hard, but they understood this and did what they could to take care of her however they could, as she did the same. The three of them stick together closely, being all they have.
A wonderful husband who would have been a fantastic father. Donzelle was too easy to fall in love with, passionate and charming but funny and kind of an airhead at the same time. They spent three years together, and even though no amount of time would have ever been enough, it was especially cruel that such a short time was given to them. Rughetta thinks about him often and it still pains her to know how little he left behind.
Rughetta has not seen her cousin in over thirty years. All she knows is he ran away one day to be a gangster and she hasn't heard from him since. If she saw him now, it would pain her to avoid him, and if she knew what he'd done, much less that he had no idea who he'd killed, it would hurt her even more.
