The new girl in town.

22, Lebanese-Irish, born in LA and raised in the Italian countryside. Currently a freelance writer for an online magazine and 100% attached to his routines.

17, Michael’s little brother. The family trouble-maker and soon to be a high school dropout. But, don’t be deceived - he has the biggest heart.

27, Michael and Jeff’s chaotic (yet, secretly wise) older cousin. Waitress at Marilyn’s, her parents’ coffee shop. A bisexual otaku, who loves her local gay bar.

9, Lillian’s younger sister, adopted from Cambodia. She’s undoubtedly the family princess. Arts & crafts, and ballet are her faves.

52, Lebanese, Michael and Jeff’s uncle - aka, their late dad’s brother. A buff and ornery man from Pittsburgh, who moved to Italy in 1978 for love.

50, the family matriarch. A (sometimes scary) powerhouse who runs a tight ship to make sure all 4 of her kids are taken care of.

75, Céline’s mother, a Parisian lady who opened Marilyn’s decades ago. An excellent chef and an even better grandma (but call her “mamy”!)

17 (soon to be 18), Jeff’s lifelong best friend. Really into painting model airplanes and keeping things organised - including Jeff.

26, born in Ecuador. She’s the only one who rivals Lillian’s clumsiness. Kami shares very little about herself, but knows everything about everyone.

27, the Yin to Lillian’s Yang. Also a waitress at Marilyn’s. Blunt and rude on a good day. A punk-goth artist who loves her mangas and animes.

26, the one who brings order to the Marilyn’s Crew’s shenanigans. Precise and creative, she’s passionate about how clothes are made.

21, Kami’s “little” brother, born in Italy. A traveler of the world, always coming and going. Does farming gigs to pay for expenses, while studying anything he can.

76, Michael’s elderly neighbour from Puglia. She’ll bring free food to your doorstep and cuss at you within the same five-minute conversation.

68, a regular at Marilyn’s and Corbetta’s park keeper. Nothing is more important to him than his park’s animals.

17, the vibes provider of Jeff’s cumpa. His family throws money at him to keep him entertained. Loves to keep up with trends and gossip, while making sure everyone is having a great time.

17, a giant for his age. A massive fan of Marvel and DC comics, yet, somehow also a massive biggot. His inclusion within the cumpa is a mystery in the eyes of many.

17, but hasn’t hit his growth spurt, yet. From Romania and one of many siblings. He has more energy than the whole cumpa combined - sometimes reaching explosive levels.
