*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.

The Dungeon of Evolution
The greatest mage and researcher in the universe, Ian Irwin, known to only his closest friends died at far too young an age. For their own goals and to give the mage another chance at life, the Gods and Goddesses reincarnated him into a dungeon. Most would shudder at the thought, in fact Ian did, but not for the same reasons. The plants, animals, fungi, and monsters that inhabited dungeons fascinated Ian in a way nothing besides his wife had. Ian had studied everything he could about dungeons and now he could be one. Traumatising Content: Besides the purpose of dungeons, the presenting of evil morals as a positive is not present in this novel. Evil morals themselves, however, are present. Combined with the gore tag, there will be imagery present that could be considered traumatising. The absence of the sexual content tag means there will be no scenes of that nature. I, the author, apologize to any previous readers that, due to my previous clarification, read the story with the belief that scenes of disturbing imagery would not be present.

A Lonely Spiral
Rye wakes up with a toad in her mouth. From the first day the world is out to make her life miserable as she struggles through living without a sun, through graves and grave threats in the form of man or monster, or even just her innermost doubts and insecurities. Join her as she explores a dark, dark world and slowly, but surely finds her place in it. Or will she? What if the world has no place for a small, weak and uncertain person like her? How will she adapt, if at all, to ever worsening circumstances? (Features a slow-burning progression, many setbacks and a thousand ways to suffer in the age of darkness with a slice of humor to finish it off. Expect the dark-souls of adventure stories. Early chapters are a bit of a mess, but it gets better. If you want to skip forward, I can recommend chapters 19, 26, or 34 as starting points.) Heyo, YJarex here, the Y is silent. This is my first story so please be kind, but don't hesitate to point out flaws or ask questions if things are unclear. I fully intend to continue writing this until it is done some time in the far future. Cover art is a commission by the wonderful hou_jae04. Check them out on Instagram here. Schedule is Tuesday and Thursday with a chance of bonus chapters on Saturday. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Done!
