“ADOPT ME.”
He cooed, charred fingers clutching a rattle made of bones.
They smiled.
“Harold, look at his little face!”
He is not cute. He is not small.

He is not cute. He is not small.
No bodies.
Just a single paper plate on the kitchen table, smeared with sauce:
“Meatbaby was born into fire. You raised me wrong.”
And below that:
“Gone to find a new family.”

Meatbaby lunged and hugged her face like a fleshy oven mitt.
She slammed against the wall, clawing at its greasy skin.
“YOU FORGOT MY NAP, MOMMY!”
Then—CRUNCH.
Her skull folded like a tortilla.

Whimpering.
Then silence.
Until she heard a wet dragging sound from the toilet.
A whisper:
“Peekaboo.”
The toilet exploded upward. Meatbaby emerged, grinning with burnt-cheeked fury.

Chris gagged, eyes bulging.
Then it kicked him in the chest, and the finger launched through the back of his neck like a gory meat Pez dispenser.
Susan screamed, slipping in blood.

Meatbaby slither-hopped across the floor and launched itself like a roast grenade.
Bacon diaper unwrapped in midair.
WHIP-CRACK! It lashed Chris in the eyes, blinding him.
“TIME FOR BURPING, DADDY!”

“TIME FOR BURPING, DADDY!”
Then Meatbaby exploded out of the smoker like a greasy chestburster, hit the ground with a splat, and stood up.
Dripping, sizzling, snarling.
Its sausage eyes rolled red.
“BAD MOMMY. BAD DADDY.”

Took pictures. Laughed their asses off.
By hour three, the smoker groaned.
Smoke turned green. The bacon diaper quivered.
Something shifted inside the meat.
A crackling voice hissed:
“Mommy?”

Susan cackled. “With a bacon diaper!”
So they sculpted. Shaped. Seasoned.
Vienna sausages for eyes. Ketchup smile.
And into the smoker it went.
