《Inferno (statehumans)》Parents?

(AutumniaSalem helped with this suggestion (idk where their comment went but they did make one))
*Texas's POV*
Me and Cali are having breakfast... but I can't keep this one question off my mind...
"Cali?" I say.
"Mhm?" California responded, focused on his food.
"I was just wonderin... do you want children?" I ask. California chokes on his food. After a while of coughing, he looks up at me.
"Children are a huge responsibility! I-I... I don't know if I... well... ok look, I want children... I just don't know if I'd be the best dad," California said.
"I'll be there to help you! We can learn how to be good parents!" I exclaimed hopefully. California nodded.
"But... how will we get a child? Adoption? A surrogate? Who will the surrogate be? Having a baby is a lot to ask of a woman," California said.
"You can still ask! C'mon, please?" I exclaimed. California smiled.
"Ok... I'll see if Nevada wants to surrogate... but... even still, I need some time to think... maybe I'm not ready to be a father," California said. I nod understandingly. No matter how bad I want to be a dad, I can't force California into it. Being a parent is a big commitment, and I don't want him to be one if he doesn't feel ready.
I go to the store later that day... and I guess because I've been thinking about it a lot, all the baby stuff just pops out at me. Especially Minnesota and Wisconsin, arguing over who's turn it was to hold their baby. And Washington, with his pregnant wife British Columbia, happily picking out baby clothes. And Georgia, picking out a '1' candle to put on her sons birthday cake. And I see Russia and China with their teenage son, arguing over which chips to buy. When I get home, I realize I forgot to even get anything.

"Texas, are you ok? What was on your mind?" California asked.
".... having a child...," I say. California smiled.
"Well then, I think you'll be glad to hear that Nevada's willing to surrogate for us," California said. I tear up, a huge grin growing on my face. I wrap California in a hug that he happily returns.
"We're gonna be the best fathers ever, right?" I say.
"Damn straight," California said.

Cultivating Earth [Hiatus]
[This fiction is on indefinite hiatus. I'm currently acting as a 24-hour caregiver for my step-father who had a massive heart attack. I apologize for disappearing so quickly, but sometimes that's just life. I'll return as soon as possible. Sorry everyone!] Zhao Gang, after hundreds of thousands of years cultivating, has finally reached the penultimate threshold. He is ready to ascend to the level of True Immortal. Driven by the need for a place his enemies won't find him, Zhao Gang puts together an audacious plan. He has developed a revolutionary new formation which will allow him to ascend while on even the lowest planes. To avoid drawing attention, he has to choose a plane that is relatively desolate, however. He chooses Earth. Fast forward three thousand years. Zhao Gang discovers what his work has wrought - a cultivation-free culture that has delved the deep mysteries of creation - he can't help but think how this tiny little planet devoid of natural energy could affect the course of all creation. There's only one problem. For that to happen, he has to succeed in cultivating Earth. Notes: Chinese names should be ignored in the social context - they don't mean anything. Sorry for slaughtering such a beautiful tradition. This novel starts off slower than most. If the slow-roll isn't your thing, you might want to give this a pass. If it's not for you, I understand. Also, releases may be broken up into smaller chunks. The goal is 5k words, but definitely more than 4k. If you see a short release, be aware that more is probably coming. I'll be honest and say that I'm struggling with each new scene, if only because I want to balance the scope of vision with good pacing. I hope the work I put into it is worthwhile.
