Summary
With Rindo's Game over, everyone hopes to get back to their normal lives. But it isn't long before Neku, Shiki, Beat, and Rhyme find the UG isn't done with them yet, and Joshua isn't sure what's causing it. It might be an opportunity to close the gaps between the group... or the only thing that can protect Shibuya from peril once again.
Maybe life can't be simple. But maybe it can be what the five of them want, if they're willing to fight for it.

Summary
It hasn’t been all that long since that night at Hachiko. Not enough time for Neku to fall into a new routine.
Joshua says things around Eri that would give away the whole Game if she ever believed him, and manages to wriggle out of paying every time they've gotten food together since the first night. He's got enough social tact Neku's sure he knows every rule he's breaking, which is pretty much constant. The only reason he hasn’t successfully picked a fight with Beat yet is that even Beat can tell he’s doing it on purpose. He’s smarmy, capricious as hell, and just as Joshua as ever.
Neku couldn’t be happier.
--
After the events of Like A Butterfly, Joshua's still getting used to this whole "having friends" thing. And this whole "admitting you have feelings" thing. Neku's still adjusting to having Joshua in his life again, along with his still-fairly-new relationship status with Shiki and Beat. Sanae, meanwhile, is making plans to resume his side career that could use a Composer's endorsement. And then Kongming gets back from Kyoto. Life's never dull for fans of Shibuya's rising musical star and her manager.Series

Reel and Deal by Regalli

Summary
Shiki thinks the Composer has a lot of nerve, only showing up after Neku's gone. He has even more nerve to be offering her a deal to help get her and Eri's business started. But given the opportunity to help Players (and maybe Neku, wherever he is,) she takes it.
Joshua barely got his Game back to normal before Shinjuku's Inversion caused yet another mess. But things are under control, and if anyone still disagrees with how he's handling Shibuya, he can give them a success story to talk about.
Friendship ensues. Written for TWEWY Bang 2023

Summary
Neku has a problem. His Partners all bonded while he was in Shinjuku, which is great! But it seems like they don't have time for him anymore when they're all hanging out together.
Neku's friends have a problem. Shiki, Joshua, and Beat have spent the last three years coming up with excuses for why one of the other two should confess their feelings for Neku instead of them, and it's got everyone else on their last nerve.
Sanae's exhausted. Eri's trying her best to be supportive. Rhyme's considering turning back into a squirrel. Something has to give.

Summary
A Composer doesn't play favorites.
Even if he wants to. (He doesn't.) Even if, apparently, everyone thinks he should. Even if they claim he's avoiding things. (He's not.) Even if he has a run-in with a bizarre anomaly on Halloween who has a fateful encounter with one of his favorite small-time musicians on the verge of giving up.
He's just taking a professional interest, really.
(Or: Joshua Watches The Events Of Ya Boy Kongming To Avoid His Feelings, And The Hachiko Gang Have Some New Favorite Street Musicians)

Summary
Joshua, having been stripped of his Composer status and left for dead, is found in a dingy alley by Beat on his way to Neku's house. And being unable to ignore a person in need, Beat takes Joshua home and calls Neku for help. The two of them fumble their way through helping the injured ex-Composer recover, all the while showing him all the wonderful things mortal life has to offer.
A slow-burn polyamory fic with some whump at the start, but mostly entails soft domestic slowburn shit.

Rapture by dustjacketduck

Summary
A year ago, Neku Sakuraba watched his partner die. Now, returning to work at the Shibuya Detective Agency for the first time since the incident, he intends to keep his distance, to keep his head down. Just do his job and go home. But how well can he keep that up when faced with his enigmatic new partner, Joshua, and a case far more personal than he could have ever imagined?
Bodies have started turning up around Shibuya, each with gunshot wounds to the head and neck. The work of a serial killer. However, with no apparent connection between the victims, no suspects, and very little evidence, the investigation seems to be going nowhere–but perhaps Neku will be able to see the snake beneath the flower.

(But every rule has a loophole.)

Summary
"In their world, something happened that brought their existence to an end. To keep them from fading altogether, I gathered up the very last remnants of their dreams and looked for a place to give them refuge. It was then this world appeared to answer my call, and Rhyme's dreams allowed us to reach it. Here, I thought they might have a chance—that the pieces of their dreams could make them whole again."
He was wrong, once again.

Joshua comes back from Traverse Town only to find his city full of darkness and his friends seconds from fading away.

Summary
Neku still knows what he saw, once, but as time goes on he can’t help wondering if it was anything more than a trick of the light.
(IN WHICH: Neku has ghost problems, goes to Paris, and gets some new perspectives - Rhyme is far more levelheaded than misbehaving cats or Composers deserve - Shiki and Eri are the only people here who actually have their shit together - Mr. H should really leave both metaphors and mentorships to other people - and if Joshua gets punched in the face it will definitely be because he's a selfless martyr suffering for the sake of the people he cares about and not because he's done anything to deserve it.
One of the above is a lie. Guess which one.)
