Whether he's on the receiving end or the perpetrator, with the consideration that there is already some level of similarity between you and him, like his partner. These men are kind of emotionally stunted and hardened by the streets and occupation.
Risotto: Moderate. Oddly, he can be pretty playful, but it's not as obvious, especially because of his straight-faced demeanor and appearance. His playful comments are vague and sometimes leaves the person on the receiving end (you/the squad) feeling like he's cursed or threatened you. At some point though, it becomes a matter of "Risotto just being Risotto." Example: Risotto asks you to hand him something (phone, some document, pen, whatever), directing you to its location. When you can't find it, he says, deadpan, "It's here," showing you he had it the whole time, then he goes back to whatever he is doing, no further explanation. May also flick some water at you. If you call him out, he dryly says, "It was the rain," while it's sunny, cloudless skies or you're inside.
Formaggio: High. Quick to give nicknames to everyone without shame, and that's especially true if you were his partner. Some of his nicknames are cute and sweet, and some are vulgar while out in the open. He swaps nicknames between you and the squad. One minute you're "sweet cheeks," the next it's Risotto or Prosciutto. May pinch butts in public. Try feeding him finger food and he'll devour the food+your finger to get slobber all over you just because it's funny to him. He'll also pull you to dance with him if he hears music on the street, and might even belt the song just for fun.
Illuso: Moderate. His playfulness is a bit mean-spirited at first, which is just his personality. He doesn't quite realize he's being rude, and when he does, he may try to pass off the blame on you for being sensitive. He loves using his stand as a form of play. You could be brushing your teeth, and he appears suddenly, scaring the shit out of you, until it loses its impact because he does it regularly. May gently yank your hair and disappear using his stand and leave you a "try harder" note where you'll find it.
Prosciutto: Low. He's a serious guy who likes to be taken seriously. His reputation and image matter to him, and if you're his partner, that extends to you too. So if you try to be playful in public, he may tilt your chin to look at him, and ask, "What are you trying to do exactly, tesoro?" Another reaction would be him staring you down, full eye contact, until he has you flustered or squirming, and he feels triumphant. But if you're his partner, he loves you and may let you tease within what he considers his limit, like cute, even embarrassing nicknames. Higher tolerance if you're his lover. Extremely low if it's anyone else on the team. His ultimate form of "playfulness" is pulling you on his lap, though.
Pesci: Low. This guy is a greenhorn and a nervous wreck half the time, but you can blame his crew for that. His confidence is low, so he sometimes perceives teasing as mocking unless told otherwise. A simple, "Hey, I'm just joking, you know that, right?" Not in a pity way but with reassurance. Initiation will always make him feel more confident and may mimic the teasing.
Ghiaccio: Very Low. He takes everything extremely seriously, even more than Prosciutto, mostly because he just gets embarrassed. It's not rooted in protecting reputation. He knows he's great and better than most, but the embarrassment will be if you're the one teasing him in public. Poking him will get him red face and yelling (but he's always raising his voice, so it shouldn't deter you.) Honestly, he does like the teasing and craves it from his partner, but just struggles to do it himself. If you're with him, don't be deterred by his reactions or responses. He's like an angry cat who likes bothering you.
Melone: High. The teasing is delicious to him, and he thrives on it, giving him sustenance. If you're teasing him, he wants to hear more, wants you to push it. Example: You're baking one day, smear some batter on his nose. He's excited, he does it back to you, then he's licking it off next. He wants more. "Melone, put the cake batter down." He's pretty theatrical, too. Wearing something he likes, and he's quoting sonnets and drawing attention in public to show off your beauty, etc.
