And on the flipside, which ones do you absolutely hate?

I'm looking for some general or shipping fics for Marvel. I'm hoping to find something that's been set in the main marvel universe, or from a cartoon canon. I really love Marvel's Cinematic Universe, but have already found a lot of fanfiction for that.
Only condition is that the shipping fics have to be for a pairing other then Steve/Tony. (Believe me there's plenty of that.) Also should not be to dark -

For pairings I like... I'd say that I like almost anything. I really like the X-men and the various pairings that go with them, but the Avengers are also awesome. My favorite pairings have combined these teams (Scarlet Witch/Nightcrawler, Black Panther/Storm.) I'm also a fan of pairings that have married in canon (Wasp/Yellowjacket, Thor/Siff)
But if your trying to narrow it down I can help you. I just recently watched Linkara's review of the comic book Ultimatum, so if you could something that centered around the characters who died in that event I would thank you.
I'm also a fan of Heroes for Hire. -
Can't say I read any of those, but my advice... by

...would be to go through the pairing tag on AO3 (archiveofourown.org). There tends to be pretty good fic there, and a lot of good Marvel fic, too (at least, from what I've seen). As with most archives, there are some bad fics (and even badfics!) there, too, but the majority tends to range from good to great to fantastic.
But yeah. Go to their website, and type the pairing you're looking for into the search bar. After that...you can filter by kudos or hits if you like (or date or author's name and all that). Alternatively, you can just choose a fandom and do the same (if you're not looking for a specific pairing). That generally works.
