"Well, if he's starting a new life, he should receive a new name as well." Ranjit smiled slightly and tried to avoid to come close to the growling baby's teeth again. "I think Otieno suits him well." The man decided and very quickly patted the boy's head.
The baby snorted.
"Thank you." Ranjit replied to the congratulations and grinned happily. "It's going to be quite some work, I guess." Taking the pictures and looking at them once again he finally nodded. "I think that's probably a nice idea, I could show them to him later on. Or burn them, if needed." Otieno punched his small fist against the man's upper arm, which luckily didn't hurt at all.
"Is there something special I have to know ? Like, what does he eat and such ?"

"That's a nice name," Archie agreed. The kid didn't seem to think so, but he wasn't in much of a position to complain.
"I would assume he can eat whatever you can at first," Dixie interrupted. "Although, if his crime has something to do with it..." She leaned over to look at the back of the picture in Ranjit's hands again. "...Nah, you're okay. It says something about disturbing the peace with light, so nothing to worry about. I was a cannibal," she said, smiling proudly. "Archie wasn't allowed to give me meat for the longest time." Her grin turned into a brief scowl before smoothing back into a neutral expression. "I guess just treat him like a normal baby until he stops acting like one."

Otieno just stared at the three people with disgust and opened and closed his hand, looking at his fingernails with interest.
"That's good then." Ranjit smiled quite relieved. "I guess we'll find out what he's fond of then." As he heard Cannibal he couldn't help but look a bit scared for a moment. Nah, she wasn't like that anymore...they were here for becoming different, right ? "Hehe...err..yeah."

Archie was still mildly stunned at Dixie's comparitively eloquent analysis of Otieno's behavior. If he hadn't known she had once been a hulking, flesh-eating freak, he would have thought she was really growing up.
"So, is there anything else you need to know?" Archie asked. "We're here most of the time, well, 'cause we live here, so feel free to stop by. I've been telling all the recent parents that, so maybe there will even be other kids here for Otieno to meet."

"I think I know enough for the time being. I'll give you a call if there's something I crave to know." He smiled friendly and even Otieno seemed to listen to Dixie's words. She was one of his kind probably. Tsk...
"We should be going home now. Otieno will be quite a surprise to the other family members..." Ranjit smiled warily and pushed the pictures into the pockets of his trousers. "I'm sure it would be nice to meet some other parents soon."
He offered one free hand to Dixie and Archie. "It was nice to meet you."

Archie reached out his own hand and shook. "Yep. Very nice to meet you too. We'll see you soon, hopefully."
Dixie grinned at Otieno before extending her own hand to Ranjit to be shaken. "See you around," she said before pulling the door open to help the man make it outside with his new crabby baby.
