Having a return ticket or proof of onward travel is not required so it boils down to whether the border guards trust your story. Being able to show you have done it before and know the rules should help.
Note that not staying too long is only one of the requirements. Even if you had all the tickets and never overstayed, repeatedly staying for 3 months without a stable situation elsewhere could raise some red flags (if I am counting correctly this would be your third and fourth multi-month stays in the Schengen area).
If there are doubts, being able to provide details or documentation about your plans and your financial means could help too. At least that’s the theory, being an EU citizen myself I don’t have first hand experience doing such a trip.
As long as you follow the rules of the Schengen visa waiver requirements you should be fine. If you can prove with a itinerary (plane, train, hotel bookings, etc.) that you are going to be travelling out of the Schengen zone, and won’t be overstaying in the Schengen area you should be fine.
My girlfriend (she is American) and I went on holiday to the central Schengen countries and they didn’t even ask for her exit flight when she arrived at Rome. They did however question her a lot when she was leaving France to enter the UK.
It is probably more hassle entering the UK and USA than most Schengen countries.
