  • "Star Wars" fans should follow Twitter account @kyloRen after seeing "The Last Jedi."
  • The parody account imagines what Ben Solo / Kylo Ren was like growing up — making friends with General Hux and writing "Dear Diary" entries about his grandpa Darth Vader. 
  • It first launched in December 2015 after "The Force Awakens" premiered in theaters. 
  • After a hiatus, the account is back in action and better than ever. 

If you've seen "Star Wars: The Last Jedi" and are a fan of Kylo Ren, there's one social media account you should be following on Twitter: Emo Kylo Ren aka @kyloR3n

The account parodies Adam Driver's performance as Han Solo and General Leia Organa's fiery son Ben Solo perfectly by imagining what Kylo was like growing up.

Some of you may already be following the parody account for the "Star Wars" villain. It first launched December 21, 2015 after the premiere of "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" and quickly amassed a following. The account currently has over 798,000 followers.

What's so great about the account?

It does everything from mock Solo's love of Darth Vader ...

... to showing how a friendship with General Hux formed. 

And naturally, it pokes fun at his perfectly coifed hair.

The account has been a little quiet since the end of 2016. But since "The Last Jedi" was released, Emo Kylo Ren is back in full force and he's better than ever. 

If you've seen the movie, a lot of the tweets currently revolve around the tension built around between Ben Solo and Rey in "The Last Jedi." 

Fans refer to the potential pairing of the two as "Reylo."

And there are references to Solo's unexpected shirtless scene.

If you're a fan of Kylo — and honestly how can you not be of this tragic figure — you can follow the Twitter account here

This will hold us over for now as we wait for the next movies in the "Star Wars" saga.
