Description:

A collaboration between Susana's DH AU and Bethann's and Minniemoggie's "A Legendary Friendship" AU, wherein Legolas' relative age is much younger than in canon, and Gimli has become his guardian as well as his friend, and wherein Faramir is Aragorn's son rather than Denethor's. Please see the series notes for more information.

Notes:

This series is a collaboration between myself, Bethann, and Minniemoggie. It is its own AU in and of itself, using the Legolas and Gimli from Beth and MinnieMoggie's series "A Legendary Friendship," and an AU version of Faramir from Susana's Desperate Hours series.

The Legendary Friendship series is AU from canon in that Tolkien says that elves reach the age of consent at age 50, but for the purpose of these stories it is around 1,000. So, around the time of the Ring War, Legolas is around 800 years old and had joined the quest without permission from his father and king. That means that even though he is chronologically older than most of the members of the fellowship, in terms of stage of life he is one of the youngest.

The Desperate Hours ("DH)" AU, or DH AU, is AU from canon in that Faramir is secretly the illegitimate son of Aragorn. The desperate Hours Series can be found here: http://www.ao3.icu/series/8893

We hope that "A Very Private Matter" and its sequels are entertaining. However these stories are a world all their own and should not be considered a part of either Susana's or Minnie and Beth's separate universes. For instance if you read a story by Susana that she has written on her own, her Legolas and Gimli should not be thought of as Minnie and Beth's take on the same characters. The authors just wanted to see what would happen if we mixed up `our' unique versions of these characters. As it turned out it was a lot of fun! We hope you all enjoy it as much as the three of us did!
