Get the Romano mug.Fit, fun, feisty… need I say more? She’s totally cool obviously and she’s super arty. A friend to all and a real social butterfly, she’s just the best. Used to be shy but has now found her people in life and can absolutely drink everyone under a bus. Robyn’s are normally really short… tell me I’m wrong? Everyone is friends with Robyn and she never has a bad word to say about her friends. She’s fabulous darling!
Robyn’s a true friend

'The boy wasn't legally Roman (a citizen of Rome or immediately descended from the Romans), but he was Roman in character. It would personally make more sense for a person who is Roman in character to be a true Roman than another who lacks it to be one.'
