Okay, like 6 weeks ago I said I would have a better idea. Mainly because I was going to research and make a chart and possibly fill in some amazing notes and examples

Oh, crossovers. I love them with unholy glee. I think I've crossed Avengers with Arrow, Chuck, and Chicago Fire and have done a couple of fusions just for kicks and giggles. It's fun trying to fit the pieces in from two different universes in, especially if you can make it so that one person from one universe influences something in the other universe, and hijinx ensue. And I love it when characters don't get along right away in a crossover. In a way, crossovers are really very similar to my one true love, the alternate universe.
Favorite crossovers: Random Numbers by anuna-81 - Castle/The Avengers where Clint Barton and Kate Beckett had a one-night-stand and whoops, mini-Barton happened.
They Will Rock You by hufflepuffsneak - A Knight's Tale/The Avengers because c'mon, Clint as Ulrich von Lichtenstein will never not be brilliant. This one combines rock'n'roll and some fantastic, thoughtful Clintasha (Natasha having a lot of agency is the best thing about it) and is phenomenal.
Five Authors That Didn't Write the Avengers by rhymer23 - Not Clintasha in the slightest (I don't think either of them is actually in the stories), but....Thor gets Pooh drunk. As in Winnie the Pooh. Plus, Iron Man in an Austen novel.
To Fly Like a Moron by shadydave - MST3K/The Avengers starring Darcy Lewis as Puma Man. Yes. That Puma Man. I've rec'd this before, but it never gets old.
Whispered on the winds by Gryphonrhi, pentapus - Highlander/Avengers with Natasha meeting up with Methos. I don't know much about Highlander, but I still thought this was a fantastic blending of the two universes with characters that reacted to each other in very interesting ways.
Currently I'm reading a Welcome to Night Vale and Avengers crossover, but it's Clint/Coulson and obscure as all get out, so I won't share here. But crossovers are wonderful and should be celebrated.
