Oh my! This is something I promised to [livejournal.com profile] rearranged and [livejournal.com profile] badjujuboo, and is an in no way comprehensive list of things I've liked in Avengers fandom. Cutting by pairings because whoo boy, this got long! I haven't put anything in the way of summaries and tbh my laziness is so epic that this being anything more than a big list of ugly links feels like SUCH an accomplishment. Endless respect to people who actually rec properly omg.

Also! I've tried not to rec anything that is based in comic canon to such an extent that you actually need to know the canon beforehand. (AKA there are no post Civil War fics waiting to choke you with angst hurrah!)

edit: 23/10/2012 - OKAY so even just since posting this list I've read a few more awesome fics so I'm going to keep adding to this list intermittently. Enjoy!

    Thank you for doing this. I have read quiet a few of these already and will be giving at least the 8 clint/coulson ones that I haven't a go.

    I have a rec in return (there is only one because I do not have an AO3 account yet and I am shit at remembering titles.)

    i shall, and have. the tony/steve one, the twice told tale, i think it's called? loved that one :)

    aaaaand i can't read your next entry. all i read was 'spoilers' and 'the walking dead' and i'm like NOPE! i missed this sunday's episode, and i will not be spoiled or have it ruined by reading about it!

    the walking dead is like my only friend in the sad tale of the break up between me and the tv...

    cheers love

    Ohhhh yes, I LOVE that one, it's one of my all time faves.

    Hee, no worries hon, feel free to skip. I love TWD SO SO much, it's one of the few shows I actually avoid spoilers for, lol, I know how it is.

    you love the walking dead. we're like ONE! i love you :)

    nonetheless, i am still intrigued by you mentioning a horror-like story. if you remember my stories of old, i used to write quite a bit of "scary story" fics... personal favs of mine.... attempting one now, prologue is all that is posted, not sure if anything else will come of it but we shall see... if i ever figure out whats next. ha! ps -you just may recognize it :)

    lalala, that's all. <3

    Brain twin! :D

    I do remember those fics :D I'm so bad at plot that I've pretty much given up on it haha, but basically my idea boils down to Avengers See Dead People. Obviously they are too badass for there to be much actual horror movie running and screaming, but it's fun nonetheless. In a quite angsty way because they have a lot of bad dead people in their past :\

    i AM intrigued by the "avengers see dead people"... i wants to read it :)

    am still struggling along with my next attempt at writing... but some other scenerios for ficlets are popping up and omg it's like overload - now that i'm attempting to write again, i'm seeing potential ideas everywhere. i just can't yet get them from my brain into words that will make sense.... if that makes any sense whatsoever :)

    mwah!

    AHHHH! *flails* THE BEST PART IS THAT THE BULK OF THIS LIST IS STILL NEW TO ME! :D I feel like I've been trawling AO3 hard, so far this fandom seems endless.

    You are awesome. <3 I plan on returning the favor when my favorites folder grows too large, pay it forward and hope someone else gets hooked. :D

    THANK YOU!

    From: [identity profile] leashy-bebes.livejournal.com
    Oh, hurrah! I'm so glad there's still some on the list you haven't read haha. I actually found a bunch of really nice Clint/Coulson recs via tumblr, so I think I might make this list a sticky post and keep updating because yeah, this fandom is HUGE and I love it :D

    Enjoy, m'darling

    OH and also, because you've got a grand memory - what was that UNI!au where tony was a rich playboy lived off campus and steve was the artist? i think it was steve. i don't think it was bruce. But Tony gets hurt and JARVIS calls steve or he breaks into the house to get tony out? I CAN NOT REMEMBER AND I NEED IT
