This is exactly the type of situation where I would use a list of
files (with their full paths) as options on the command line to ask
Geany to open them for me:

geany "/home/foo/Desktop/file1.txt" "/home/foo/Desktop.file2.txt"

If you put that into a script or a .bashrc alias, nothing will come
along and alter it and you can rely on it to open exactly what you
like each time.

If all of the files are already open when you run the
command/alias/script, Geany won't do anything. If none of the files
are already open, Geany will open them all in the same tab order each
time. If some of the files are already open, Geany will open only the
ones that aren't. The freshly-opened ones will be opened in new tabs
on the right and won't necessarily be in the order that you would
normally expect them to be. I just drag them into place afterwards.

I've got several different types of activities that each have files
"exploded" all over the place and this has never failed me.
