I love your headcanon posts! what are some of your headcanons (backstory and personality) for the rest of La Squadra?

Oh boy, these got kinda long. I hope you enjoy my dumb rambling about La Squadra (also my bias towards Melone and Sorbet+Gelato is showing I’m so sorry) I added the songs I used for inspiration on Sorbet and Gelato’s stands so that’s something lmao

Also also I’m still trying to figure out formatting on tumblr I’m so sorry.

Also also also I have so many dumb headcanons for the inner bureaucratic workings of Passione and what each ‘position’ in the gang entails and how Passione became a dominant force in Italy and oops I’ve slipped them in here a bit my b.

Fromaggio

- He got his start smuggling. Drugs, weapons, people, Little Feet made that a breeze.

- The thought of being an assassin never crossed his mind, because it seemed like a lot of work. More so than smuggling which was basically just getting stuff from point a to point b without getting caught.

- Fromaggio was a confident dude, laid back and easy going with an agreeable personality that most people enjoyed.

- He’s not exactly details oriented though, and that’s what came to bite him in the ass.

- He was working with one of the few groups not affiliated with Passione and it was only a matter of time before the operation was busted.

- Fromaggio never really asked many questions about his jobs, nor did he care very much who or what he was smuggling. He met with a man in Malta seeking entrance into Naples and was willing to pay handsomely. So of course, Fromaggio agreed.

- If he’d been paying more attention, he would have recognized that man as Prosciutto.

- Fromaggio brought the assassin right into their main warehouse and it was game over from there.

- Prosciutto took interest in Fromaggio’s stand and decided against killing the man, instead bringing him to Risotto to see what the Capo thought about his abilities.

- When offered a choice between dying with the rest of his old associates or joining Passione, the choice was obvious.

- He really, really enjoys gambling. Prosciutto supplements his income with Fromaggio’s gambling habit.

- Fromaggio gets along well with all of La Squadra. He’s always been an agreeable dude and he’s willing to give just about anything a shot once. So he’s at least passingly knowledgeable about the interests and hobbies of other members.

- Fromaggio, Prosciutto, Pesci, Ghiaccio, and Melone make up the main ‘kill squad’ of La Squadra where Illuso, Sorbet, and Gelato handle clean up and intel gathering.

Illuso

- Illuso does very little killing himself. For the most part, he deals with disposing of evidence. The mirror world is great for that.

- Because of this he has the lowest kill count out of all of them.

- He is Sicilian like Risotto, and they converse in Siciliano when it’s just the two of them. Neither of them is particularly chatty though.

- Ghiaccio and Pesci didn’t know he was a member of the squad for weeks because he rarely ever leaves the mirror. He doesn’t even have a room in their hideout, he just sleeps in the room of whoever forgets to cover their mirror.

- Most of the time its Pesci’s room because he feels bad

- I hc him at about 27

- He joined La Squadra after Ghiaccio and was more or less ‘gifted’ by Polpo because of his quiet demeanor.

Ghiaccio

- He’s baby (24)

- His first kill was at age 18 when he was working in a chop shop and beat someone to death with a wrench.

- Melone was the one to bring him into La Squadra, his bike was getting some work done in the shop and he was there to see Ghiaccio snap.

- Risotto wasn’t keen on letting someone so young join La Squadra and initially turned Ghiaccio away. Which pissed the boy off enough for him to seek out Polpo, demand a trial, and come back with White Album.

- He had never skated in his life, but White Album gave him the instinctive ability to do so.

- He can only skate while wearing White Album. Without it, he actually had to learn.

- He reflexes and balance also improved greatly after gaining White Album

- He’s the only one not ‘trained’ by Prosciutto, instead Risotto took over his ‘training’. The Capo wanted to personally make sure he was equipped to handle the life that comes with La Squadra.

- Risotto and Ghiaccio are quite close. Risotto was initially intrigued by White Album and Ghiaccio liked Risotto the most because he was the only person who was careful with his words.

- He’s got a keen eye for detail and an eidetic memory. He enjoys taking apart electronics and seeing how they work (and how he can improve them)

- Ghiaccio enjoys working with cars, but doesn’t like all the oil and grease.

Melone

- I hc his age at 28

- He was always too inquisitive for his own good, and very curious as a child. Most people found him annoying

- Melone has absolutely zero respect for personal space. If he likes you, he will hang off you without a second thought.

- And if someone retaliates jokes on you he think’s its hot.

- It is possible to make him angry, but he won’t let it show out of spite. You really gotta be angling for it if you want to piss him off, and if you’ve put in that much effort into getting a rise out of him he’s not going to give you the satisfaction.

- His mom was like Giorno’s, a party girl who resented her children for holding her back

- He has an older half sister who took care of him when he was younger. They were extremely close.

- From her he learned to paint nails, braid hair, and they both really enjoyed looking at horoscopes and other astrology/pseudoscience things.

- She was 10 years older than Melone, and when she married Melone went to live with her (he was about 12 at the time) and he never really got along with his brother in law.

- Her husband was in Passione, a low ranking Soldato but an ambitious one. She was aware of her husband’s occupation but decided the risk was worth the reward (and the financial stability)

- Her eventual pregnancy led to Melone’s fascination with pregnancy and childrearing.

- She died due to complications with a late term miscarriage when he was 16

- After this Melone and his brother in law stuck together. Melone joined Passione, receiving his stand from Polpo’s Arrow.

- The pair of them had a pretty good scheme going on but eventually his brother in law bit off more than he could chew, and Risotto was called in to clean up the mess.

- Babyface proved to be a challenge, and instead of eliminating Melone as he was working with the target Risotto decided to offer him a choice.

- Self-preservation won out and in a show of loyalty Melone had Babyface kill his former brother in law. At best, he tolerated the man because his sister loved him and after she died he was a good meal ticket so when his life was on the line it didn’t take much prodding for Melone to turn on him.

- It took a while for Risotto to trust him because of how easily Melone’s loyalties shifted but once that trust was earned Melone never gave Risotto a reason to regret it even if his impulsive decisions (such as dragging Ghiaccio into Passione) caused him some trouble occasionally.

Pesci

- Pesci is actually, genuinely, a sweet guy. He’s respectful of his superiors, polite (if not a bit awkward) to strangers, will offer help if he sees someone struggling with a heavy bag or something on a high grocery shelf, the whole nine yards.

- He has a habit of second guessing himself and apologizing often but is quick to offer reassurance to people if he sees they’re having a bad day.

- He also has a hair trigger temper and killed a man by snapping his neck with his bare hands.

- That’s what landed him in jail.

- Its like flipping a switch with this guy.

- Risotto personally bailed Pesci out of jail and brought him into his team because of his brute strength. It was novel, to see someone so capable without a stand.

- He received his stand from Polpo’s arrow.

- Pesci is the newest member of La Squadra, but not the youngest (that honor goes to Ghiaccio) and I personally hc him at 25

- His ‘training’ mostly consists of shadowing Prosciutto and observing how he does things. There is a lot to be learned from watching another stand user work, even if their stands are vastly different.

- He lacks real strategy, which is another reason he was teamed up with Prosciutto (who winds up ‘training’ most of the new recruits anyway)

- He’ll be considered a full fledged assassin once he completes his first job on his own (with Illuso or Fromaggio tailing him to observe, depending on the abundance of mirrors)

Sorbet and Gelato

- Of the two, Sorbet is the most talkative. He’s got a pretty good sense of humor, and a natural charisma about him that puts people at ease if they don’t already know him

- Gelato and Prosciutto are both card sharks and they keep their skills sharp by practicing on each other.

- While no one would call any of them selfless, they would lay down their lives for each other without hesitation.

- They have so many words unique to their relationship that people listening in would assume they’re talking in code half the time.

- Sorbet and Gelato are the oldest members of La Squadra. Sorbet was 36 when he died, and Gelato was 41

- Sorbet got his start in Passione, Gelato was part of a ‘merger’ so to speak.

- The previous syndicate Gelato was a part of was assimilated by Passione after Diavolo returned to Italy. He was familiar with Pericolo as they had been part of the same group.

- Sorbet and Gelato both have stands, although they were both born stand users.

- Gelato’s stand is called Mack the Knife and it allows him to eat anything regardless of size (and his stomach acid has a ph value of 1.3). On top of this, it also gives him sharp and study teeth. If for some reason something he eats breaks a tooth he has more in reserve, like a shark.

- Sorbet’s stand is called Fortunate Son and essentially it hides the user and anyone they touch in plain sight. They’re not invisible, but you must be consciously looking for Sorbet in order to find him when Fortunate Son is active.

- They joined La Squadra before it was ‘La Squadra’ Risotto (being green himself at the time) wanted more experienced people on his team but had little to no luck recruiting people until these two.

- They’re well known in the gang for their unorthodox (putting it gently) methods of doing things and kept most people from approaching them.

- Primarily they ‘interview’ people for information on Squadra targets, but those interviews always turn deadly.

- While they enjoy killing more than anyone else in La Squadra, they don’t typically get kill jobs because they’re just good at interrogating people. They make do with that just fine though. Neither of them enjoys leaving loose ends.

- Before Illuso joined, Gelato oversaw clean up and disposal.
