A vampire finds a screaming human baby in a basket: small and utterly useless. Out of curiosity (and a hint of masochism), he decides to raise it. What begins as a macabre experiment turns into the most bizarre challenge of his undead existence: diapers, tantrums but also wonder. Amid soiled cloths, brooding monologues, and disturbingly quiet moments, he discovers something that deeply unsettles him: affection.
This story consists of fragmented memories from the vampire Szandor Aranyos as he learns to care for something other than himself.
