Augh if you're looking for a Supernatural/Avengers crossover, you should maybe read this one. And yes, I too find it amusing that the first Avengers fic I choose to rec in my journal is Clint/Coulson, a pairing that I don't care for all that much.
Basically, Clint makes a crossroads deal to get Coulson back; Clint goes to hell; Coulson moves heaven and earth to get him back. Or, how Sam and Dean would be super horrified that there are two more people in the world just as fucked up as they. It's horrific and angsty and ughh Coulson is perfect and Crowley is Crowley and Thor has some badass niece and aughhh I just love fic concerning hell I should probably see a shrink about that or something.
(Happy ending is included.)

Summary: On a cold, windy night Clint Barton goes to a crossroad to wipe some red from his ledger.
Excerpt:"How're we going to find him?" he said, half hoping Natasha actually had an idea and half just to hear a voice that wasn't moaning in agony. "We need a plan. We're wasting too much time, this place is endless. Maybe we should climb up somewhere to get a better look."
For a second Coulson thought she hadn't heard him, then she stopped short, swearing softly under her breath in Russian as she sprinted to the right. Coulson rushed after her and found her looking down into a crevasse they'd passed earlier. "No," she said, and when he stepped next to her he could feel how hard she was shaking. "We should climb down."
The sense of that hit Coulson like a truck. Of course they would have to go down. Clint loved being up above everyone else; he lived for the high ground, for the ability to take in a situation in one sweeping glance.
Of course Clint Barton's hell would include not being able to see the sky.
I should really remember to rec more things more often. Hrm. I did set up a shiny new
pinboard account for my shiny new fandom. All Avengers fic is there. Other stuff still goes to
delicious, for now.
