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

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!
