I dont think think the problem is caused by using one subnet. I am working on
routing in wireless adhoc networks and there it can happen that routing has
to be done in the same subnet (not each client can hear each other because
of the wireless connections). But nevertheless i have tried your
configuration. Unfortunately my problem still exists. Here some outputs which
can be usefull:

Here the results of some ping6:
ping6 from A to B -> works
ping6 from A to C -> Destination unreachable: Address unreachable
ping6 from B to A -> works
ping6 from B to C -> works
ping6 from C to B -> works
ping6 from C to A -> Destination unreachable: Address unreachable
When i run tcpdump on host B (while running ping6 from A to C), i can see,
that the ping gets to host B but host B does not request the linklayeraddress
from host C. That is what i am thinking is causing the problem. But i do not
know why B is not requesting the linklayeraddress.
I can get the ping6 from A to C and from C to A work when i manually add the
linklayeraddress from A and C into the cache from B with "ip -6 neigh add
<IPv6 address> lladdr <link-layer address> dev <device>".
Hope you now have all information you need and you have an idea to help me.
Kind regards
Volker
