DARREN ALEXANDRE DUPONT

Your whisper, so clear
The world disappeared
I've fallen to the darkness
It's impossible to express
I move, confused
I'm wrapped up, I've sinned
So tired I'll never be free
Oh I don't fight the feeling

hello, my name is Darren Alexandre Dupont, i'm 18 and i was born on December 26. i guess that makes me a senior and i've been A STUDENT at blackwood academy for just arriving. people would say i'm rebellious, sarcastic, creative, angry, and scary and that i look a lot like Rick Genest but i just don't see it.

Hello. I'll be interviewing you today. Can you tell me your name, maybe a little bit about yourself?
I'm Darren Dupont, though I'm sure you know that already. I'm 18, I obviously like tattoos, and I've clearly broken some rules. Unless you've not taken the time to read that pretty little file on me. Even if you hadn't, my love of tattoos is obvious from looking at me, and my presence implies the rule breaking. Unless you're an idiot.

That's a lovely name. Why don't you tell me about the people that named you, your parents? And what about the rest of your family and people close to you, tell me about them.
My parents? All right, let's start with dear old dad. Scumbag. He knocked up my mom, and left her soon after. Never spoke to her again. His name was Darren. As for my mom, she's okay. Her name is Margeaux. Margeaux Dupont. She's an actress, and grew up in Belgium. She and my uncle, Alexandre, were pretty big when they were young. They're still big, but when they were younger? They were huge. Still are. I remember, when I was a kid, being followed around by paparazzi. It still happens sometimes, mostly when we're in France.

Anyway, I don't have any siblings. The closest thing I have to siblings is my cousins. All of us were raised together. The oldest of all of us is Milo. He wants to be some kind of doctor. Aunt Morgan was proud of him when he got accepted into the university he wanted. After him is Matt, and he's currently whoring it up in Italy. Props to him, he's having fun. Then there's Camille, Little Miss Prude. Until she met her fiance, she was a shut in and a stick in the mud. She's a bit more fun now, but god forbid anyone make a dirty joke around her. Next is Juliette and Cyprien. Rien is the older twin, and the less fun one. He's into following the rules and wants to be a veterinarian someday. Laaaaame. Juli is the cool one. She and I have been best friends since we were kids. We used to make so much hell on set for our parent's movies. Eventually, we weren't allowed to go unless we had a handler.

Otherwise, I don't really have anyone. A few friends who I hang out with sometimes, but no one close. I'm not into that. And if you're asking about my s*x life, it was going strong before I got sent here. For some reason, girls just love my tattoos.

Interesting... What about before Blackwood, how was your life?
Pretty damn good, if you ask me. We moved around a lot, but it was cool. I got to see a lot of places, meet a lot of people. I got pretty good at noticing things about people. Telling people things about themselves that sometimes, they didn't know. I used to use it as a party trick. Fun fact: girls like it when guys can tell them things about them that other guys don't notice. Especially when the guy has some badass ink and would piss off Daddy if he knew.

I was fifteen when we finally settled down for a bit. Let me tell you, it was a hell of a shock to suddenly be living in American suburbia after traveling around Europe for most of my life. At first it was interesting, but it got boring real quick. It was a couple of months after we moved here that I got my first tattoo. Juli and I had started skipping school together. She wasn't any good at it, and I was bored by it. We started looking for ways to entertain ourselves.

Pretty soon, we were drinking, and using drugs, and getting tattoos from local artists. Funny, how a bit of extra cash will encourage people to do things they know are illegal. Our allowances were pretty good, and I was good at supplementing mine. I gamble, but really, it's not a gamble when you know you're going to win. I'm a master card player, my poker face is better than you'd think. I can count cards, bluff it, and I even know a few games of 'chance' that I can rig.

Things started to suck when Juli came out of the closet. Don't get me wrong, I think it's great, she's a good wing-woman. But the assholes at school started showing their true colors. It hurt Juli more than she'd admit. I could tell. Anyway, things came to a head when Juli got into a fight. Broke one guys nose and wrist, gave the other a black eye and a concussion. They're lucky I wasn't there, or it would've been worse.

She got sent here. Things at home got even more boring, and eventually, I got bored. Then I got caught with a medley of drugs... A little coke, some weed, a bit of E, I even had some meth with me. It was all gonna be resales, I was working on getting clean. I'd found out some girl I slept with was knocked up, and I was the only possible father. I've got a kid on the way, I can't be messing around. The money I get as allowance each month won't pay all the bills, so I was going to sell the drugs, get a bit of a kick start to get going. I was working on finding a job, but... Not many people are willing to hire me. I would have figured something out, though, if I hadn't gotten caught. Lucky for me, my mom is helping her out. And when I get out of here, I'm going to be in my kid's life. I'm not going to be like my dad.

If you had to pick something, what's the worst and the best things your done in your life?
Worst? Either getting sent here, so I can't take care of my kid, or messing up Juli's life. She was a good kid, before I got involved in screwing things up for her. And the best... I dunno. I think that my kid is going to be great. I tried to do right by him. I messed up, but I was trying. That's more than I've ever done for anyone else.

What made you come to Blackwood?
Drug possession with intent to sell. It was a one time thing, the resale, but the cops didn't care. Anyway, the lawyer that got Juli sent here is the lawyer that got me here. He told me that it was here or prison. I gladly took this option.

Okay, and last question I promise, do like how your life has turned out?
Why not? I mean, this school is better than prison. And when I get out of here, life will go on. I don't really have any reason to complain.
