[And here comes Caesar, a little groggy from just having woken up. He peeks around the corner, curious as to the source of the strange chant. Green eyes widen hugely as they spot the small boy.]
Oh runes.
[He scrubs his face wearily with his hands and emerges into the room after a moment, still staring.]
[Ran doesn't notice the person watching him right away. He's just a normal boy after all. He'll color the green dinosaur with such a conviction that the floor is about to turn green as well, brushing red bangs off his face constantly (the buggers keep coming back when he doesn't hook them behind an ear or something).
When he finally notices Caesar, he'll tilt his head back and gaze up at him curiously for a moment. Then break out a bright smile.]
I'm Ran, [ he returns with a wide smile.] I'm five years old. How old are you Caesar?
[But when Caesar crouches down and asks about the pictures, then the boy seems to light up, his back straightening, smile turning into a surprisingly serious expression.] This is a stegosaurus.
[....the book is talking? Ran blinks and stares down at the dinosaur pictures for one very silent moment. Then he's eagerly leaning forward until his nose is almost touching the pages.]

Hi, Mr. Stegosaurus! Who's Caesar?

You can just call me Ken.
Caesar should be there with you. He's got red hair, like you.

Hi, Ken! I'm Ran. I'm five years old. But soon I'll be six. Mama says if I'm good I get to have a party. You can come too.
[He tries to remember, none of his family has red hair. Oh... ]Yes! There's two. The other is ill... I think.
