(A continuation of "tough luck" to celebrate it reaching 100K views.)
There is not much to say about homecoming expect that it was written in four weeks, on a google document I only opened in incognito mode. I wanted to make up for the heap of flaming garbage that tough luck was, because I figured most of the readers wanted closure. I know I did.
While I was working on the book, the mainframe sat on my account. Here was the cover:

• This is one of my shortest books at a little over 8,000 words, but also one of my favorites
• I apologize for breaking my promise of a sequel at 50K votes on tough luck, please forgive me :(
• This book was written on a whim, much like IDGI
• There are several times throughout the story where it is very obvious that I have never been to college
• I primarily wanted the titles to relate to "tough luck", so the first title ideas I had were ones like "slim chance" or "one in a million"
• There were several drafts for the ending of this book, a few of which included Josuke moving to the USA permanently or (y/n) moving back to Japan with Josuke, but I decided I'd rather leave it ambiguous to the reader to decide their future
• I almost made this a songfic book, but I decided against it. The main soundtrack for this book, I'd definitely have to say, is "Something About Us" by Daft Punk, but I highly recommend that you listen to the other songs mentioned in the book: "Cool" by Gwen Stefani, "Darling Nikki" by Prince, and "1999" by Prince
• I wrote the thank you note first, which you are about to read. :)
