Summary
"Buddy was the one who officially called the family meeting. But when Juno walked in, the face Benten was making made it obvious who was going to do most of the talking. Juno has seen that face many times growing up. He saw it once when Benten broke one of ma’s flower pots and decided to tell her even after he knew she was having a bad day. A dumb mix of determination and pride, but under it all Juno could see he was scared shitless. "
Benten comes clean about why he is on the ship.
I started writing this like a year ago and never did anything with it. It is a piece of my "Benten Lives And is Actually Really Badass" AU that I will more than likely never finish. Instead of it dying forever in my notes, I thought I would just throw it up here. This completely spoils the rest of the story, but I thought it was an alright scene so here you go!

Summary
Peter Nureyev has spent most of the first eight years of his life on the streets of Brahma, hungry and afraid and remembering only his name. Juno Steel has spent most of the first ten years of his life in Oldtown, stuck in a too-small apartment with a brother who loves him and a mother who blames him for something he doesn't understand.
There are millions of lightyears between their two planets, too many for them to ever meet—at least not for another few decades. That is, until Peter Nureyev finds himself huddled in the back of a cargo shuttle headed for Hyperion City, Mars.

Summary
Ruby’s lights flash on and off twice, then its gears begin to turn as they did, what seems like aeons ago, when Nureyev had looked him in the eye and told him he was their best shot at survival.
[...]
Then every single atom of his body is violently ripped apart.---------
M'Tendere has come to peace with their captivity - somewhat. The boredom takes its toll, some days, though. Like today, although music is still a hobby they enjoy partaking in.
[...]
The deafening crash that resounds behind their back, accompanied by the long-unheard but oh so familiar beep of incomprehensible alien machinery just might make their day.---------
On the other side of the system, the Carte Blanche and its crew await just outside of OldTown for them to board and, if possible, never ever come back. Buddy is kind and patient even as Vespa grumbles about unnecessary risks, but the doctor herself knows that he cannot leave just yet.
He needs to say goodbye, once and for all.
[...]
For Juno Steel, Benzaiten Steel will live. -

Summary
“You’re gonna be a Siren, aren’t you?” Benten had laughed, “Don’t look at me like that. I see how you love your Songs, Super Steel!”
“They’re not mine,” he had argued, but hadn’t let go of Benten’s hand when he pulled him into a dance, coaxing a Song from Juno easily.
Because no matter how hard Juno wanted to believe that those Songs were his mother’s, that he was nothing like the Siren she was, he knew their melodies had already carved themselves into his bones the same way they had Benzaiten’s. But Benten didn’t feel the urge to Sing like he did, didn’t need to create the music with his veins and lungs, he danced instead. Maybe it was a mark against Juno’s character, how he couldn’t rip himself from the Song in his blood like Benten could. Maybe it was just how Benten was, how he found freedom in dancing with his human body just as much as flying in his avian form.
Not that any of them could fly very high, or very far, without fear of someone seeing them. Swans shouldn’t exist on Mars, after all. -

Summary
Juno Steel never asked to be a princess. In his mind, his twin brother would make a far better heir than himself. However, he was the first born, so he was expected to attend balls, smile wide for the crowds, and perform as the happy princess for the kingdom. He didn’t expect everything to change upon being kidnapped by a group of revolutionaries.

Summary
Oldtown children are as rough as the city they’re trapped in. As rough as the fragments of broken sidewalks that get stuck in bare feet as they run. They grow up learning to fight, to defend themselves against murderers and police officers, parents and teachers, and the hopelessness that seems to always creep in no matter what you do to keep it away.
In which four Martian kids dream of a future they'll never get.

Summary
There are far too many people in here. That’s the main thing Juno was thinking. It was a bit hard to think with all the alcohol flooding his system, and that’s about the best he’s got. He was being jostled left and right, taking elbows to the ribs, stumbling toes scuffing his boots, and a frankly ridiculous number of drinks sloshed on his shirt. He’d lost count by that point.
The bars he’s used to are much less populated, though he supposed this was more of a club. And he shouldn’t be surprised, either. Cass had told him it was going to be loud, he just hadn’t been quite prepared for how loud.
At least they had alcohol.

Summary
She resigns herself to stoicism, presses a cold shoulder out into the world. Only cries when no one will be able to hear her. To the outside world, she is calm and collected, unfeeling, uncaring (she does not close her eyes unless she has to -- this way, the factory never enters her line of sight).
(sasha wire and juno steel are the mirror image of each other until one day, they are not)

Summary
Bruno Bronze—AKA Juno Steel—is practically a household name to bookworms across Mars. For better and for worse. It’s a good thing almost no one knows the two men are one and the same.
An AU in which Juno is a bestselling crime author, writing under a pseudonym and using his stories to take shots at the rich and powerful of Hyperion City. All his plots are inspired by actual unsolved crimes, many of which he’s beginning to suspect were perpetrated by the same thief.
It’s all business as usual, right up until the real-life thief takes notice.

Summary
Pirate Juno Steel needs a doctor after a fight gone wrong, and luckily there happens to be a doctor by the name of Peter Ransom in a nearby village on the island Brahma. Sure, perhaps Steel hadn't have had to kidnap the doctor, but a drowning man will clutch at a straw.

Summary
Currently, Juno was standing in front of one of the many windows facing out of the Carte Blanche, Nureyev by his side while the rest of the crew bustled around on their own business. It was calm. That worried him.
That’s when he saw it.
“What in the hell is that?”

Summary
Benzaiten Steel is a dancer. Just a dancer. There isn’t much special about him. His sister, Juno Steel, got a new job, complete with a boyfriend and a whole family. Ben doesn’t know much about it, but he’s happy that his sister seems to be doing well for himself.
That is, until some of the most well-known criminals in the galaxy come knocking at his door, requesting his help.

Summary
In a universe with soulmates, no one is certain what causes people to have them. All that’s known is that when a soulmate touches their soulmate, their skin erupts into color temporarily. Different colors correspond with different soulmates and it’s possible to have multiple or even no soulmates.
Juno Steel has never given much thought to soulmates. In his mind, they probably are just happenstance, don’t mean anything at all. Or maybe that’s just what he wants to believe.

Summary
AU where Juno solves the Kanagawa case on his own and meets Nureyev when he tries to break in to steal it. But he thinks Nureyev is a one-night stand. It goes about as well as you’d expect it to:
There is a man slinking his way through Juno’s room. He’s dressed simply enough, but it’s clear that the man is wearing last night’s clothes. Juno may deny it when it comes up in daily conversation, but he knows he has a type. This nameless man, with his sharp teeth, that lethal grace and focused expression- well. He certainly fits the bill. It looks like Juno found someone to take home after all, even if he can’t quite remember how exactly they fell into bed. It wouldn’t be the first time.
