Regarding your first question: TDDFT with BP86 is not programmed yet. As of Firefly 8.0.0, the following functionals can be used for TDDFT:
Exchange only: SLATER B88 XPW91 GILL96 XPBE96 OPTX Correlation (100 % exact exchange): VWN1RPA VWN5 PW91LDA LYP CPW91 CPBE96 Exchange-correlation: SVWN1RPA BVWN1RPA SVWN5 BVWN5 SLYP BLYP GLYP OLYP XLYP BPW91 PW91 PBEPW91 PBE96 Hybrid: B1LYP BHHLYP B1PW91 B3PW91 B3LYP1 B3LYP5 O3LYP1 O3LYP5 X3LYP PBE1PW91 PBE0
