Editing Dave (section)

== Relationships ==

=== Bambi ===
Dave is best friends with [[Bambi]]. They met while Bambi was stealing corn from a corn maze. Some may describe their relationship as rather one-sided on Bambi's side, with Bambi taking more from Dave without giving back, but they are still friends regardless. Dave often visits him at his farm. They sing '''Splitathon''' together, and Bambi later invites Dave and his son to his corn festival. Dave often gifts Bambi bricks painted as phones, that function like actual phones anyway.  

They are both incredibly virtuous to truth or dare and never want to lose a game.[https://www.youtube.com/live/jU0l9asFiSE?si=Nol8ZffN_sjOeA-8&t=308][https://www.youtube.com/live/jU0l9asFiSE?si=_Hc3T9uvrbyxM8KC&t=6259] One time, Bambi dared Dave to ignite a stack of fireworks at a Walmart, and he went through with it.  

=== Tristan ===
Dave's son is [[Tristan]]. Dave may be a strict father, but he truly cares for his son. Dave is an algebra teacher at Tristan's school (hence his name), where Tristan attends as a student. The full extent of their relationship isn't shown much in the mod itself, with the only real interaction showcased being Dave yelling at Tristan about how he called the cops and that they would find out something he did that was illegal. In the side game Dave's House, it is shown that Dave is strict once more, with him having hidden presents around the house on Tristan's birthday and threatening to spank him if he collects them. Despite this, Tristan does collect them. 

Dave apparently adopted Tristan simply because he "just had a feeling"; he felt a connection to him immediately.[https://www.youtube.com/live/jU0l9asFiSE?si=HY-nwQGt2Row7VuL&t=5104] 

=== Muko ===
Dave's other best friend is [[Minor_Characters#Muko|Muko]], who he is roommates/housemates with. He and Muko are lab partners, and work together in Dave's lab. He is seen in the corn festival week, having went there with Dave. In the Baldi Mod games, Dave's computer wallpaper is he and Muko together, with Muko holding up a peace sign. The two of them share a non-canon but official series called Dave and Muko, in which they are in a romantic relationship. As far as we know, Muko and Dave are not romantically involved in the games, nor is Muko present in the Vs. Dave and Bambi mod aside from a small debut in the background of the Festival week.

=== Boyfriend & Girlfriend ===
Dave is friends with Boyfriend and Girlfriend. They meet over the course of his week, and become close enough to be invited to Bambi's farm, and then to Bambi's festival. Boyfriend saves Dave from being 3D multiple times and helps him calm down from the stress. Later, in '''Memory''', Dave tells Boyfriend that no matter where he goes, he will always be there to support him. In '''Splitathon 2''', Dave calls Boyfriend a good friend of his.

=== Ruby Man ===
Dave's other roommate/housemates is [[Minor Characters#Ruby Man|Ruby Man]], who appears in the background of the festival week and the background of the song '''Bot Trot'''. Not much else is known about them other than that Ruby Man goes to the corn festival with Dave. He is also seen in the game Dave's House as an obstacle Tristan must avoid.

=== Play Robot ===
Dave is the creator of [[Playbot|Play-Robot]], a robot that plays games and teaches students lessons. She is seen in his house, in the song '''Bot Trot''', and in the games as well.

=== Parents ===
Dave's unnamed parents have only occasionally been mentioned and do not have designs. They have been described as typical American suburban parents.[https://x.com/moldy_gh/status/1645405802079956992] Dave visits them during the holidays.[https://www.youtube.com/live/jU0l9asFiSE?si=WDb-eDhOytGiag_u&t=781] No further extended family has been mentioned, even when inquired about.[https://www.youtube.com/live/jU0l9asFiSE?si=1Gf29oSlpaRbHmgA&t=3628] They're most likely to simply be irrelevant and/or never developed as characters.

=== Pico ===
Dave and Bambi have apparently met Pico before.[https://www.youtube.com/live/jU0l9asFiSE?si=ZUXWXBjLS0E7upAT&t=6957] Nothing else about their relationship is known, but it does confirm that Pico exists in the Dave and Bambi universe, as do the rest of the characters in the broader Friday Night Funkin' universe.[https://twitter.com/OfficialMTM101/status/1725273888458748088?s=19]
