Post-513 adventure fic?

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

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.

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.
