Fandom n00b

Hello, all. New to Avengers fandom, just plowed my way through all the movies and planning to start reading some of the comics, soon, too (though I haven't gotten there yet). Any fandom classics or popular rec lists you guys can link me to? Particularly interested in Iron Man (my unabashed favorite), Captain America, Thor, and anything with Hawkeye, Coulson, and the Black Widow in it, though I'm certainly not opposed to Hulk either.

Big on Tony/Steve and Clint/Coulson(/Natasha), as well as Thor and Loki gen/brothers/pre-slash. Also big on angst (so far it seems the rest of the fandom is with me on this), h/c, and kinky smut of the D/s and BDSM variety.

Please and thank you!

Cap_Ironman recently had a rec week with plenty of good fic recs. Mostly movie verse this time but the last rec week had more 616 fics: http://cap-ironman.livejournal.com/tag/rec%20week

and the ship manifesto has some great Steve/Tony epic length recs at the bottom: http://ship-manifesto.livejournal.com/204146.html

Welcome to the fandom! :D You're in for a treat XD

You can check out the community's Recs Compilation (http://avengers-search.livejournal.com/691.html); there are links to different rec lists for different pairings :D

For Thor/Loki GEN (are you interested in slash or just gen/pre-slash for this pairing?)

Hit the boy (http://norsekink.livejournal.com/8802.html?thread=18222690&#t18222690) and the sequel, And maybe you think I’m not listening as you scream and scream (http://norsekink.livejournal.com/8195.html?thread=16433667#t16433667)
Triumph and sequel (http://norsekink.livejournal.com/8802.html?thread=18769762&#t18769762) with deaged!Thor
Whispered Promises (http://norsekink.livejournal.com/7418.html?thread=14903034#t14903034)

Trajectories (http://norsekink.livejournal.com/8195.html?thread=17419779&#t17419779) is Thor/Loki slash but it's amazing. Def a must read.

Tony/Steve
Tomorrow Belongs To Me (http://archiveofourown.org/works/259417/chapters/405402)
Footprints (http://avengerkink.livejournal.com/4305.html?thread=3620817&#t3620817)
And everything by scifigrl47 (http://archiveofourown.org/series/18228)

Yay, definitely getting on this. And, I'm just into Thor&Loki gen/epic brotherhood, though I don't necessarily mind slash. Tony/Steve is absolutely loved (and I'm already addicted yo scifigrl47's stuff).

I've got a rec list over here (http://agentsonofcoul.tumblr.com/post/22445776513/fic-recs-2).

I particularly recommend In Which Tony Stark Builds Himself Some Friends (But His Family Was Assigned by Nick Fury) (http://archiveofourown.org/series/18228) by scifigrl47, which is quite possibly the best series I've ever read.

Is it alright if I link your rec list at the community's recs compilation post? Because it's pretty great :D

[sin-stained-ink.livejournal.com]

Sure. :D

[nyxelestia.livejournal.com]

That series was one of the first things I read, and I love it, as well as pretty much everything else by that author. Thanks for the rec list! :D
