I've been reading a lot of mission fics lately, so I figured I'd take the time to revisit a few of my faves
(...and take you all along for the ride, ofc 😉)
So, let's slow down and rewind so's everyone's on the same page: what is a mission fic?
A mission fic is a piece of fanfiction that's based around an episodic-style storyline - not dissimilar to a monster-of-the-week/murder-of-the-week style vibe.
They're usually (but not always) written about fandoms which involve a lot of action/adventure hijinks - especially if they contain characters who are in the military, or are military-adjacent.
