You are really getting your money's worth from that one cigarette

"Derek Darkblade is LITERALLY me" - me, as a scrawny 12 year old growing up in a loving and well-off family, still afraid to swear out loud or go more than a mile from my rural house without my parents

[@trentmoyar2378]

I love the fact that he cares enough to count his age in half years.

[@PurooRoy]

His parents seem to have a more interesting story than him.

[@thebookwitch895]

As an edgy ya protagonist, this is very accurate

[@DonutBurger]

At first, I thought "there's no way this guy is ACTUALLY an edgy YA protagonist", but when I saw that tattoo, my mind changed instantly.

[@Alex-cw3rz]

What about his scars that are not like normal scars they somehow are perfectly placed to excentuate how good looking the person inevitably is.

Satan trembles when he glances at me

[@Glisten456]

The most tragic part of his backstory is that his parents thought that Derek Darkblade would be an acceptable name for the prestigious noble landowner they wanted him to become.

"I learned that you can't trust anybody"

[@adammoynihan2589]

Let's not forget his love interest Susan Sunshine who is the opposite if him in every way and it really doesn't make sense why she likes him but the plot requires her too.

“Surprised I swear? Get used to it.” Really makes it sound like we’re on for a long 7 books.

[@Frenchaboo]

Okay, but change the age to 48 and this is also pretty much every "badass" male hollywood lead in an apocalypse or prison flick

[@bro.that.is.adorable.2633]

That was the edgiest tattoo I’ve ever seen. I can’t handle this guy

[@darriendane]

every man carrying thing video is literally just a guy that wants powers of dark magic but doesn’t want to deal with the consequences.

[@mylittlethoughttree]

Important question: were his parents each stabbed 37 times, or is that 37 times split between them? In which case, who was stabbed how many times?

[@MatthewSmart]

This is what playing Shadow the Hedgehog for 5 minutes does to a man.

[@extrules]

ashamed to admit i definitely would have had a crush on derek darkblade in middle school

[@irishspartanstudios]

Facinating how a man who doesn't trust anyone allowed someone to doodle on his flesh with an ink stabbing machine.
