Summary
A series of connected fics for I Was A Teenage Exocolonist. Mostly postcanon, dealing with the aftermath of the Peace on Vertumna ending and concerned with following the cast into their twenties and beyond. Themes include: reconnecting with your younger self, queerplatonic/unconventional relationship structures, platonic and familial love, grief, and the growing up that gets done after you're already an adult. Not QUITE a fix-it, because I do make some of the characters get worse before they get better. Some of the fics stand on their own, but they're all in conversation with each other.
First and foremost, though: this is a love story. Not necessarily a romantic one, but a love story nonetheless. It is comprised of three mostly-chronological story arcs: "Beekeeper", "Mineshaft", and "Childlore", each with three stories each, plus the side-story collection "The B Sides".

Summary
Ken makes sure to chew and swallow before he speaks. “Oh, I can—”
“I made the mess,” Yuki responds. He shakes his head. “It isn’t a lot, anyway. You can talk to me if you want to.”
“A-About the cereal?” Ken swallows again, this time for no real reason. “I mean, it’s good.”
Yuki shoots him a brief smile. He’s been doing that more lately. Sometimes Ken wonders how he even manages it, in the wake of everything that’s happening… but it never feels disingenuous, from Yuki. Someone who smiles so carefully, so sparingly… It’s always felt so rewarding with him, like Ken’s actually done something really good. Really—meaningful, for once.
That sense is still there, though perhaps undeserved. It’s not like Ken said anything nice or important. He’s sure he was just intentionally ignorant, since Yuki wouldn’t say that about something as insignificant as the cereal. Ken swallows a third time, and this time it’s a little harder. It’s so stupid.
---
Ken runs into Yuki in the aftermath of his latest nightmare.

Now, as Medjed’s threat thrusts the spotlight on the Phantom Thieves and the Second Detective Prince racing to unmask them, police from all over Japan are called to Tokyo to help the investigation. And as the familiar silhouette of a boy with a briefcase appears on TV sets at midnight, it’s only a matter of time before someone gives the people what they want.

“I don’t make a habit of breaking rules,” Yoon says, and he looks away from Hwapyung’s sun-tanned skin and wavy, unkempt hair.
“Only when you’re with me, hm?” Hwapyung laughs again, then sticks his hands into the pockets of his thin jacket and walks ahead of Yoon, whistling as he goes.
Only when I’m with you.Even after Yoon finds him again, doubt lingers.

Summary
( title from end of beginning – djo )
Deep down, he hopes it is arrogance. He sincerely hopes it is arrogance so that he can blame him, so than he can spit on that vivid image of pursed, focused lips bearing a discreet smile that tends to err in his coldest dreams, pulling him under and jolting him awake in a cold sweat. Fashion in Japan was what he intended to leave with a permanent mark of. Instead, it was Minato who left a mark.
or
André Laurent finds solace in denial, finds regret in promises.

Nothing but this, the whole summer, just the two of them; Akira taking a well-deserved break, and Ryuji running from his failures.
That’s always been something he’s been good at, at least. Good to see nothing’s changed.

Summary
“You want me to arrange my own death.” It’s pathetic, that this is how his life works. So pathetic that the only thing left to do is laugh about it, about the way that he must die and never be happy, no matter what.
Igor laces his fingers together and leans forward. He’s every talk show host Akechi has ever spoken to, every interviewer who has smiled and told him how impressive they find him. “I want you to make the right choice.”
--
Or: Ren makes the wrong choice. Akechi tries to set it right.

He can't help but be curious as to what the ex-detective's deal is, even if he has to keep buying him meals to trap him into spending time with him.
