They should simply be added. No blend modes involved. Leave Apply Mode on Normal, and pull the Alpha Gain slider in the Merge to 0. That will add the inputs together. Or you can use the Channel Booleans in Add mode.
Delete Screen from your consciousness. It's a workaround for non-floating point compositing, and generally speaking it has no place in a linear workflow. As you have noted, if the colors go above 1.0 (and in a scene-referred color space, they very often will), screen makes things darker instead of brighter.
