Fic Recs?

[captaintish]

Hello!  I'm fairly new to Avengers fandom, and I've been devouring as much fic as I can find.  Only thing is, I'm not into slash, which as you can imagine, makes it difficult.  

I LOVE Tony/Pepper, and I was wondering if anybody can rec me any post-Avengers fics that focus on them?  Multi-chapter, drama, hurt-comfort, something I can really sink my teeth into.

Also, any giant recs lists.  Here on LJ, dreamwidth, tumblr, delicious, I don't care.  I've just always found that when I'm new to a fandom, recs lists are your friend.  :D

Like I said, I like Tony/Pepper.  I also read a lot of Clint/Natasha.  Also, any canon pairings are good, and I'm not opposed to Bruce/Darcy.

Thanks in advance!

Tony/Pepper:
Voice Mail by December21st - Tony leaves Pepper a voice mail.
Call every girl we ever met Maria by irnan - "You're telling me," Rhodey said, gleeful, "you're telling me that you've been shot, stabbed, sewn up, been riddled with shrapnel, had a magnet implanted in your chest, spent two years poisoning yourself with palladium, spent twenty years as a functioning alcoholic and had a vasectomy and you still managed to knock Pepper up?"
Tony And Bruce series by icarus_chained - The first time Bruce hulks out in the lab, it isn't Tony's fault, but fucked if he's going to let that stop him. (also featuring some Bruce/Betty)

Clint/Natasha:
Unwind by toestastegood - Following the battle for the world, Natasha is on edge. Clint is happy to offer her some stress relief.
We were emergencies by gyzym - It's not about being unmade; it's about remaking, one aching step at a time. (With podfic by knight_tracer)
None of Your Business by crystalkei - Tony observes the way Clint and Natasha interact while eating shawarma. Inspired by the bonus scene at the end of the movie and by Marvi's tags on tumblr for me about how much junk could be stuck in poor Nat's cleavage after the final battle.
We always headcanon the ones we love by nympheline - Clint and Natasha will never have normal lives. They have accepted this as fact. Once a month, they pretend  by putting on some old rings and going to Ikea to pick out furniture. Or to Home Depot to look at paint samples. Or to Walmart to check out baby clothes.
Because they will never have normal lives, but it’s nice to pretend.

Bruce/Darcy:
If you give a Hulk a Lab Assistant (I don't think that's how that story goes) by tinnytins - She's too young, too human, and altogether too ridiculous to be involved in all this, but for some reason she has a real knack for dealing with the Other Guy. And Thor. And Stark's ridiculously complex coffee machine.
The Hulk loves her first. As with most things, Bruce can't help but follow.

And other canon pairings...

Thor/Jane:
Reaching perihelion by fuzzy_paint - When her phone rings, Jane is elbows deep in the setup of the last of her instruments.

Bruce/Betty:
After The End by sam-storyteller - "You looking for someone?" "A friend. My friend Bruce. I came here to find him."
Breadcrumbs by irnan - Betty is aware that this is not going to work unless she can come up with a better plan than calling up the Pentagon and asking if they can direct her to a scientist who occasionally turns into a giant green monster, a specific one, she didn't just wake up this morning with a craving, she's actually his girlfriend, so would they mind very kindly putting her through... ?
Tempting, just to hear the reaction on the other end, but Bad Plan. For one thing, she's not sure the Pentagon knows jack squat about... well, anything. It seems expedient to take a different approach.

Bucky/Natasha*:
A Love Story by quigonejinn - The Winter Soldier and the Black Widow. /Once upon a time, when you were still a girl, you met a man. You fell in love./
Another Country by victoria_p - Natasha has reconciled herself to the past in ways he can't yet, in ways he might never be able to. (With podfic by greedy_dancer)

*As for it being canon see A brief history of the Black Widow, Hawkeye, and that Winter Soldier guy who keeps getting mentioned by coffeeandink ;)

Thank you for all the lovely recs! Added a bunch of them to my To-Read list.

Oh, and I've already read After the End, and loved it!

For Pepper/Tony I can really recommend

pre-emptive strike by Mizzy: http://archiveofourown.org/works/271947
and the Couting of Tony Stark by boombangbing: http://archiveofourown.org/works/330371?view_full_work=true
(The second is part of a series that will become Pepper/Steve/Tony, but you can read this one as a stand-alone and it's great)

For Bruce/Darcy:
She blinded me with political science by thingswithteeth: http://archiveofourown.org/works/448050?view_full_work=true

I hope you enjoy them as much as I did!

Great! Thank you!
