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.

Summary
Five years ago in Inaba, a wildcard betrayed his friends and helped a murderer walk free. 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.
(On the eve of Medjed's defeat, Goro Akechi gets thrown into the TV.)
