Still stuck in the asspede brainrot but taking a brief commercial break to design this bih cause another friend was very interested in seeing her. This is Victoria, a (purple) monarch butterfly who is connected to Jespar's storyline as she is the wife of his biological father Alphonse, thus she is his step-mom but don't tell her that cause shit’s gonna hit the fan.

Alphonse and Victoria are part of a butterfly society which is ermmmm very fun. It’s just a bunch of posh nobility constantly vying for more status, riches and power. So yes, half of our greedy boi's family is actually wealthy af, however if they knew about him they wouldn't want to have anything to do with him because the scandal of Alphonse having a bastard son would kinda fuck with their image. And image is everything in their world. And Victoria specifically, even though she appears kind and gentle for the most part, has a very strong cutthroat mentality and can be a very vicious woman in the right circumstances. If Jespar ever shows up at their door she will immediately go find an assassin for hire to take care of that problem. Right after ripping her husband a new one for being so careless.

For the record, she knows Alphonse has affairs, she does too, the two of them only married for status and share no love for each other. In fact she's a lesbian, with Alphonse being the only male she tolerates. But it is an amicable partnership and the two make a very effective team and at the very least do consider each other friends, as much as that's worth in their world. They also have two children together whom they genuinely love and are good parents to, but other than that their whole life revolves around the game of power played in their society. Which frankly is a dumpster fire waiting to happen because once the first secrets are revealed the whole thing is gonna come crashing down in a blaze of glory.

I also have some concept art I did of Alphonse last year, so I might try to clean that up and post it later once I finish some other stuff.
