Icarus Rodriguez

"Hey, Edward, I was out getting us donuts yesterday. A kid said I looked mean, and serious. Is that true?"

Icarus Rodriguez is a detective working for the New York City Task Force.

Personality
Icarus is optimistic, humorous, and sweet. Icarus is also a pacifist. He prefers to try and see the bright side of things, and has stated that many times with other coworkers. He gets told a lot by his best friend, and love interest, Edward, that he's a bit too sweet. Most of the time, he goes out of his way to do generous things for others, sometimes even those whom he doesn't know, and may as well be his enemy--- interestingly, it's happened once already, but Icarus still continues to do so.

Icarus is a genuinely kind person, and even though he may look serious, or perhaps even unapproachable, he's honestly a big good ball, and is always "open to making new friends," his wife often tells him he acts like a child with his kindness, and wanting to make new friends, but he doesn't mind, in fact: Icarus actually agrees with the fact that he's rather immature for his age, but even so it won't change his behavior.

He's a very accepting person, for example when his younger sister came out to him individually, he told her that he supported and loved her unconditionally, and even bought her a pride flag the next day.

And while he's goofy, and sweet, he also has the ability to be serious. It just takes longer depending on the situation and who it involves, even in life or death situations: Icarus still tries to be optimistic. He also isn't very easy to scare, or anger. But when pranked by coworkers, despite usually doing the pranking, he'll pretend to have gotten scared, for the sake of being kind.
