This makes me really happy to hear actually. I was thinking a bit more with this one, as opposed to some of my other drawings as of late, which have just been more fun pieces.

I'm really interested in character lore, and Pico is kind of a blank canvas in a few ways. You can fill in the gaps here and there. Most of Pico's content is based in comedy or action, but I wonder, what happened to him after the school incident? I have a couple of headcanons running around in my brain.

My general idea was that Pico, when you really think about it, is more of a complex character than you'd think. He survived a greatly traumatic event, and not only that, but he was the savior. He has undiagnosed mental issues, which I can relate to myself. He has a lot to think about. Perhaps wondering if life is really worth living, or if he can even survive the battle of tomorrow.
As for this taking place before or after the battle, I'll leave that up to speculation. It's more fun that way.

Sorry for the rant here, but I think an insightful comment deserves the same kind of response in turn ;)

thank you! it'll be fixed up a bit for the full animation probably too
