Post-513 adventure fic?

[rinmonsterer.livejournal.com]

Dear Fandom,

After reading one too many reunion fics I finally realized that ordinary stories started to bore me. Like those where Brian and Justin after months of brooding make a suden decision that they can't be apart anymore, or those where Kinnetik is the best company in the universe and therefore opening an office in NYC is not a problem. Or where they break up for the sake of angst.

So I was hoping you could recommend some post-513 fics with, you know, actual plot/action? As in, where something terrifying/dangerous/shocking/weird/ unusual/life-changing/funny happens to boys and girls of qaf and brings Brian and Justin together. I already read 'Whenever You're Ready' by Severina, 'Painting Lessons' ( braindamaged!Brian is Teh Love ) by Jan and 'Brian Like Me' and those are the kinds of plots I'm looking for.

ETA: got some recs, still looking for moooar eventful post-s5 BJ stories. Come on, I know you got 'em, give 'em! :3

Alas, it happens to the best of us. "Dr. Dee" prescribes the following:

Go to http://community.livejournal.com/drabylon and friend the comm. Then indulge in a bunch of quickies.

For something truly different and hilarious, go here http://xie-xie-xie.insanejournal.com/51270.html. The crack!fic will have you laughing your ass off. My fave is "Justin & Gabrielle in a Bottle."

Keep reading jans_intentions. She is the ultimate cure for QAF fanfic boredom. You gotta read "Forbidden Fruit," "Noir," "Innocence" (WIP), and my personal fave "Apple" (WIP).

My most recent addiction: "Leather Bound" by elyxer. I've never read anything even remotely like it. It challenged me and made me uncomfortable--and I like that. You can find her fics here http://www.midnight-whispers.com/efic/viewuser.php?uid=119 and she also has a "friends only" LJ here http://elyxer.livejournal.com.

PLEASE give all the writers and artists your appreciation by leaving comments!

PLEASE keep our Marvelous Moderator happy and remember to edit your post to indicate that you've found some great fic.

Hollah back to LegalMonet@comcast.net and let me how it goes.

Ha, thanks for the extensive response

Oh, the bottle!fic has a truly romantic start, I'm gonna get to it right away.

Yes, i keep exploring jans_intentions' stories. So far I finished Noir and am seriously impressed with her stuff. She takes fanfic writing up a few levels.

Gawd, I hate bondage, but I might give elyxer a try, he/she seems to have some interesting plots going on.

I'll make sure to remember to feedback and re-tag.

BTW, you wouldn't happen to have some post-s5 adventure stuff with more on the character-development and drama side? Sigh, having high expectations makes a fangirl's life miserable.

Thaanks again!

Sorry--I realized most of what I rec'd was AU when you specifically asked for post-S5 adventure/character development. Most post-S5 fic is full of hearts and flowers and family and children. Then I remembered vamphile and plumsuede! I read their fics at http://www.bjfic.net, but they both have LJ's.

plumsuede--Read in this order: "Everything at Once"; "Framed"; "Beyond the Yellow Brick Road" (WIP).

vamphile--Read in this order: "All Mistakes are Temporary" I & II; "Slices of Seven"; The "Keeping" Series (Brothers Keeper; Keeping It Together; Safe Keeping; Keeping Touch; Keeping Time).

Oh, you are in for a treat!

Could you please post the link to Whenever you're ready. thanks.

I don't think that a fic only has a plot if something "terrifying/dangerous/shocking/weird/unusual/life-changing/funny" happens in it... You won't find zombies or brain damaged people in e.g. Xie's or Plum's fic, and yet I don't think they're boring.

[rinmonsterer.livejournal.com]

Oh but I love introspective fics! I actually prefer good introspective fic to average action-ridden one. I just feel that I already read everything there was to write about reasons behind Brian and Justin's 'break up'. I already know most of the reasons why they'd drift apart or decide to get back together after s5. Not saying that introspective post-s5 fic is bad, only that I've had enough of them for now :) Therefore, I want to see the boys being brought back together by some unusual circumstances, some huge event(s) or cosmic intervention, or peculiar coincidences. Anything that goes beyond Justin finding a new boyfriend or adding kids to the Kinney-Taylor family. I'd be extatic if I found introspective + action fic, but maybe that's asking for too much.
I apologize if I phrased the original post in a confusing way. My only excuse can be my English level being too low, but I'm working on it! Maybe I should write 'action' instead of 'plot'? Then again, pure 'action' isn't ecactly what I'm looking for. Damnit, I'm adding points to English skill on my next lvl up, definitely! Meanwhile, please forgive me for increasing PITA factor.

[leelee2005.livejournal.com]

I think your English is pretty good. BTW, hello neighbor, I'm from Hungary. ;)

Ignore me, I'm just in a bitchy mood. And I understand where you're coming from. I adore the type of fics e.g. Xie writes, but Severina's zombie!fic rocked my world! :D

Maybe I should write 'action' instead of 'plot'?

I think that was a good idea.

QAF Fic: Without a Trace (QAF/WaT crossover)

Work in Progress.

This is a crossover with the show Without a Trace. Brian and Justin aren't together here. I mean they are but Justin is in NY and Brian is still in Pittsburg. What I meant was that they have no scenes together. At least not yet because Justin is missing. It has Hobbs and mentions Cody too. Below is the first part.

I'm gonna wait some more for this fic to update (got this phobia of abandoned fics). Thanks for posting!

Pimping my own work is not typically something I do, but you might try Pain Management - You can find it at Midnight Whispers

http://midnight-whispers.com/

I wrote it so I'm doing some pimpage- but it is very angsty post 513 and seems to meet your criteria.
look under sfscarlet-

ONE OF MY FAVES!

*pimp pimp pimp pimp*

"Pain Management" is awesome!

Re: ONE OF MY FAVES!

[sfscarlet.livejournal.com]

thank you- glad you liked it- was worried that it was in poor taste to pimp my work, but I decided to offer reader a chance to read a great story.

Re: ONE OF MY FAVES!

[rinmonsterer.livejournal.com]

As the Ancient Cretans used to say - there's no pimping like self-pimping.

Mmmm, comatic Brian, I hope his leg holds up. Reading it now, thank you!

Re: ONE OF MY FAVES!

[sfscarlet.livejournal.com]

hope you like it- full of angst- please let me know either way.

first off, if you haven't read Jane's stuff, now's the time to start:

http://not-nearly.livejournal.com/94095.html

and if you haven't read the smut and pornabsolutely hottest stuff to be found on livejournal, then you need to read triciaqaf and xhaleslowly - go to their profiles, then memories

okay, pimping my own stuff
not post season 5 - I pretty much write AU
http://www.bjfic.net/main/viewuser.php?uid=1651
commuter flight stories is finished
educating justin is almost completed
turbulence is a WIP (and won't be resumed until EJ is completed)
then a bunch of one offs for challenges, gift exchanges and things that struck me and inspired me.

[rinmonsterer.livejournal.com]

Aah, why do I keep getting bdsm recs? Is it something in my eyes? Is it the way I write 'a' ? :D
But thanks, if I ever feel craving for porn, I'll definitely check Tricia. Actually I haven't stumbled upon her fics until now.

about Jane's stuff, does she have post-s5 adventure? Her fics I actually read already, but not nearly half of them. She's quite prolific.

about your stuff, I'm gonna stock it up for the AU days. Also, I like your humorous one-shots. I think I already picked up some philosophy of WWBKD :D (in the 'what' part at least...)
Thanks for posting!

[netlagd.livejournal.com]

uh, what was BDSM?
Jane fics certainly aren't
I will admit that some of triciaqaf might have some in her box of tricks
I don't think of ethan's (xhaleslowly) fic are bdsm

[rinmonsterer.livejournal.com]

yeah, I meant triciaqaf, I think. I browsed randomy through her stories and 75% were bdsm or heavily porny. Not saying it's bad, just not what I was lookin' for. And I might've exaggerated a bit, as usual. Don't mind me. :>
