Yay, my first Harudaki fic! It focuses on one of my favorite side characters, the gay actor Kikuchi from Book 2.

Title: Comeback (Parts 1 & 2)
Author: geri_chan
Rating: R overall, more for language than anything else
Pairing: Kikuchi/Miyasaka, a bit of Kikuchi/Onozuka
Word count: ~2,100 for Part 1; ~2,960 for Part 2
Disclaimer: No money is being made off this story; consider it a little wish fulfillment on my part.

Summary: Kikuchi attempts to re-start his career after being forced to step down from Katou's movie in Book 2.

A note on Japanese terms: "Geinokai" is the word for the entertainment industry in Japanese. I guess we would say "show business" or "showbiz" in English, but it sounded a little awkward, so I stuck with the Japanese term. Names are given in the Japanese order with the family name first and given name second.

There's a lengthy afterword on my thoughts regarding Asian actors in America, along with a bit of meta on how the story came about. Feel free to skip or discuss, as you like.
