General Fics
''Stories focused on the family and the friendly relationships of the cast. Plot-focused stories or light day-in-the-life stories. Pretty much anything that isn't focused on romance.''

Loki and the Penguin Liberation Front by LulaMadison
 * Recommended by Casual Banshee
 * Status: Complete
 * Pairings: None
 * Synopsis: Penguins in zoos all over the world suddenly vanish. The Avengers are sent to investigate.
 * Tags: Humor, crack.
 * Comments: Though this is a crackfic, it doesn't diminish the quality of the writing or humor whatsoever. Guaranteed to at least raise a few chuckles.

You'll Find the Bright Places by Black Eyed Girl
 * Recommended by Zephyr7
 * Status: Complete
 * Synopsis: Fury temples his fingers together. “Tell me how this started?” Phil tries to give a reasonable report of today's incident. As he spent most of his day trying to keep grade-school aged versions of his team away from a team of gunmen, he has only limited success.
 * Comments: An absolutely adorable and awesome kidfic where Papa Wolf Coulson has to make sure his little charges are kept safe while he takes care of those coming after them.

Dopplegangers by nom*stars

 * Status: Complete
 * Synoposis: Steve makes the mistake of taking Thor to the zoo. Tony makes the mistake of buying nine penguins. Everyone else thinks they’ve made the mistake of joining the Avengers in the first place
 * Comments: The Avengers and penquins together are an instant win. Thor naming all the penquins with variations of Tony's name was hilarious, as well as the rest of the Avengers' reaction to the whole thing.
