Pico (Friday Night Funkin': Soft)

"You got it babe!"

- Pico to Boyfriend in Week 5.

Pico is the duertagonist of the popular mod, Friday Night Funkin': Soft. He is a street artist who was framed for a school shooting and is currently dating Benjamin Fairest. He is helping him run away from his abusive parents, both of whom are famous singers that want him to follow in their footsteps.

Appearance.
Pico wears a dark green hoodie with denim blue pants and black & green sneakers. He wears black fingerless gloves and carries a can of spray paint in his right hand. He wears a black bandana with a white "X" over his nose and mouth.

During Week 5, his hoodie is replaced with a green winter coat with cream-colored fur trim. His pants are now dark green instead of blue, and his sneakers are replaced with brown winter boots. His bandana is now red and sports a sideways gingerbread man.

Next to Pico is a grey boombox and his paint-stained iconic UZI. During Week 5, the boombox is red and gold, with holly leaves and berries on the sides.

Personality
Unlike his canon counterpart, who is ecstatic, outgoing and dangerous, Soft Pico is calm and serious. He genuinely cares about his boyfriend, Benjamin and is quite protective and supportive of him. When Father Fairest tried to bring him home by force despite his son winning their wager, Pico jumps in front of him and blinds him with a can of spray paint. Later during Week 5 when Boyfriend confronts and disowns both of his parents, Pico is stunned from amazement and cheers for him.

Pico has also had to resort to drastic measures in the past, as he was able to prevent the loss of many lives at the school Benjamin and Grace attended. However, he was instead blamed for the shooting rather than thanked for stopping it. He seems to not be fully aware of this, as he was confused when Grace called him a school shooter.
