I can't seem to explain it properly as I was hoping to. He will probably go with a firearm, as I honestly can't see him as a "slug it out" type. I was struck by how similar he turned out to his father as well. It was purely on accident to me. I will add to his personality and background the answers to your questions; but to be short about it I will also answer them here. Diego never meant to follow his father's way of life. He was simply trying to help feed his sisters and help out his mother. It's sort of how he can justify his stealing from places. He refrains from stealing from people, which is something his father did. Diego doesn't really care about his father one way or the other. He kind of resents that the man left his family (even though he was actually taken), but understands that he cannot hate the man for that. He is sort of cold about it.Diego actually managed to stay out of serious trouble in prison. He did get to know some of the gangs pretty well, and managed to become "friends" with a couple of guards. He managed to make an agreement while in prison, his protection for him running supplies. This is how he managed to have ties with the black market and the drug world. He doesn't use drugs or even smoke, which the local gangs seemed to like. The inmates and even the guards turned out to be a valuable source of information. The jail gangs have their own "cells" on the outside, which is both great for information and dangerous. (Plot twist? lol) He never got contacted about becoming a part of the gangs, and he was glad of it. He figured they saw him as more of a "free cell" which he was fine with. It also gave him alittle bit of power to either accept or deny the gang's proposals. Diego's inmate contacts taught him some of the finer aspects of his life. By that I mean that they taught him tricks he never would of thought of by himself (like how to unlock his own cell).The goth gear is part of his "blend in by sticking out" thoughts. It's proven helpful to him before, as most people who spot him tend to focus on his clothes before looking at his face.
