This week's rec is of an older vintage - in fact, it's brought to you courtesy of the wonderful Wayback Machine. Which is a great coincidence, since I noticed AO3 is going down for updates tonight.

But enough background; the main thing is that this is one of those blessed stories that make me laugh far too loud - while getting decidedly hot under the collar.

Because the premise is taken to its utmost, and then a bit further, Legolas a far too good actor for his own good, Gimli has a mischievous streak a mile wide, and the whole thing is wrapped up in the sort of easy Established Relationship Banter(TM) I'm permanently weak for.

Also it's a wonder it's not fogging up the screen.

And if you liked this one, the same author’s delightful ‘Owner’s Guide’ stories are available on AO3 though the HASA arcive import. The Gimli one is here, and the Legolas one here. Enjoy!

YESSSSSSS

I remember when I was going through my first desperate fic-binge (aka: everything I could find) and I'd read everything I wanted on AO3 and was looking for older fics. This one kept showing up on everyone's rec lists, but took me a heck of a time to track down! (Entirely worth it.)

It is so worth it!

I found the link to this on Determamfidd's rec list. What really annoys me, though, is that only part of the archive is archived by the Wayback Machine - like, yes, you get the entire list of Fic By Pairing, but then only some fics are available :(
