Our Life 2: Darren Murray (Step 2)
And Darren is back again for Step 2! A true angel baby 💕. At this point she's aware of what being trans is and that she is, but publicly still goes by Darren and he/him (though some people call her "Ren" as a nickname which she likes). She hasn't gotten any less awkward than she was as a kid, maintaining her status in town as a 'lovable screwup/slacker'. Darren is relived to be liked and scared to lose that, so she willingly goes along with the perspective. But inside she dreams of having her efforts be more appreciated. Even if she's not the coolest socially or highly ranked grade-wise, she tries her best.
One great strive is that she has an easier time dealing with other girls now, even being able to form a delicate friendship of sorts with Tamarack. (And potentially with a female MC too, if you choose to befriend her.)
Ren and Qiu have of course remained good friends over the years, despite some strain on her part when it comes to Qiu being very much out with their gender neutral identity and her definitely not being terribly open with her own. But she is grateful to have their support in all things.

crying right now i love her so much! Will definitely be one of the first to purchase her dlc if she gets one!
She is literally one of the biggest balls of cuteness I have ever seen oh my goodness. I wanna squeeze her in a tight hug and reassure her that she's valid the sweet little baby <3
Might just need a dlc for this one... ADORABLE
Darren is my favorite character so far.
GOSH... she is so cute its unreal. i love her so much. i hope we as an MC can be a good support system for her and offer her the appreciation she deserves 😭😭😭
Oh my GOD she's so cute... I LOVE her hair and expressions. Her choppy hair kind of reminds me of Cove's in step 2. If she's available as a romance DLC then there's no question, my heart belongs to Ren 😭♥️
I... I adore her so much. Wow... I'm so so so glad that I'll be able to befriend her in step two. I am more than definitely going to be acknowledging and appreciating her efforts at every appropriate opportunity <3
Please make romanceable in a DLC for any gender so Qiu wouldn't be the only bi. I love cool girl like her. Also, the deep blush is barely noticeable, imo...
So cute!
Oh wow I love her and I’m gonna have to agree with some of the other comments, it would be awesome to get a DLC for her if it’s ever possible
The hat and hoodie look works so well... And the pattern on the hoodie looks like autumn leaves, which is very fitting! 😄🍂🍁
IM SO PROUD
Don't mind me just here to fawn over this precious angel and voice my support for a DLC focused on loving her :)
