Derrick//Garbage



Rachel's boyfriend, Bailey's and Aaron's best friend, also close with Merriweather, Carlos, and Lindsay.  Friendly with the east coast group, especially Mark.  Derrick's dream is to own a tattoo parlor someday, and Rachel's gonna do the piercings.  Ah, young dreams.
Blech.
I've had him for like, five years, but haven't drawn him much until 2010.  I have too many characters.
He's obsessed with Say Anything and Halloween and has a habit of drawing and writing on himself with sharpies.  He's...often covered with Say Anything lyrics.  Ouch.
I forgot to make little clothes people so I'll add them later.

Fashion: Loosely punk.  He likes comfy jeans—not overly fond of skinnies, but has one or two pairs.  Band tees are a must. Halloween is his favorite thing ever, and he often wears Halloween-themed clothes.  Does do DIY; patch addict, has several vests complete with studs and iron-ons, likes distressing and dyeing things.  Remember, Halloween and loose punk. 
Personality: Easygoing, sentimental, forgiving in nature.  Laid-back, humorous, helpful.  Also really likes parties.  He likes the docks, hiking, camping and generally being outside.  Very politically active, helps with local political campaigns and attends rallies, etc. regularly.  Derrick LOVES his pet rats and has a memorial sleeve for them that is updated whenever one passes away.  Goes batshit crazy-happy in preparation for Halloween each year, as it’s his favorite thing ever.  Furry, not a furvert.  LOVES suiting and conventions.  Crafts it up a lot with Bailey and Rachel; likes sculpting, drawing, and sewing little cute plushies.  He puts up with his friends’ crazy problems pretty well (Merriweather, Aaron, Bailey and Rachel = pile of anxiety and stupid).  Loves body art, and is totally devoted to it.  The only other thing he’s more obsessed with is Say Anything, and it’s better to not ask.  Derrick’s pretty much an average guy who likes boozing it up with friends and the girlfriend on the weekends, likes his job, reading before he goes to sleep, and trying really hard to be good at guitar in his spare time.  Very forgiving to Rachel, too, when she does dumb things.  Doesn’t let people take advantage of him, though.
