It's a comic that I'd really like to make someday. Unfortunately I don't have much free time now so I doubt when it will happen. I don't want to forget about it so I mention it every once in a while←
(Note: I'm still part of the MeloGhia nation I promise🤣)

Flashback of how Cio and Mel met at the funeral of a capo
Usually squadra members don’t appear at meetings because of their job duties, but the boss wanted everyone there to pay respect to this capo because he “protected the boss.” However, everyone knows that this capo was literally sent to die because of his betrayal.
Cio: Well well isn’t this our top assassin, Risotto. If you change your mind and would like to let me study your beautiful eyes please kindly let me know
Ris shows tiny trace of disgust: We’re not here to chat
Cio: Don’t be so distant.(hand to mel’s direction) Who’s your new kid
Ris unwillingly introduces Cio to Mel: Melone, Dr.Cioccolata
Mel: Dr.Cioccolata..! I’m very interested in your um, researches
Cio: Oh? You like dissecting people too?(grin)
Mel: I was in med school..
Cio: Excellent! You might get along with my assistant Secco. Why don’t you drop by the office sometime, I’ll give you a tour
Ris gives Mel a look, subtly shakes head
