TALK TO ME ABOUT CASSIAN X TAMLIN BROTP PLEASE?
I WAS IN BED WHEN YOU SENT ME THIS I HAD TO WAIT UNTIL I COULD GET TO A COMPUTER AHHHHH I love talking about this himbroship I'm buzzing where do I even start omg omg
This is 10000000% fanon, but it's good, happy, soft and silly!
Cassian and Tamlin met during the First Hybern War; Rhysand was like 'hey ya'll meet my new friend' and like any normal person Cassian was like OH YEAH, TAMLIN'S NOSE MEET MY FOREHEAD
They ended up wrestling bc the broness called to one another, so obviously they had to test each other
It's now a normal greeting for them for Cassian to barrel into Tamlin and tussle with him; Tamlin loves it because it's the relationship he never had with his brothers
Cassian is THE shorter older brother, he's at least 30 years older than Tamlin, but Tamlin is 6'5"+ and Cassian is built like a BAKED BEAN
Tamlin is definitely the more introverted one because he's insecure, but Cassian will double down on ANYTHING Tamlin says or wants. OH UR VEGETARIAN BRO??? BEANS ARE THE SHIT AND GRASS TOO
Cassian doesn't know what exactly vegetarians eat except grass and beans, he tried once and cried he did not like whatever the hell a 'bean patty' is
Having a friend outside of the Night Court is a really fascinating experience to Cassian because even though they both had different upbringings, they have similar... vibes? Tamlin is quiet and curious, Cassian and loud and will put his hands/mouth on anything to figure out what the hell this new thing is. They both had 2 brothers with a MEH dad, warrior training, they punch first and ask questions later, it's just really cool to connect with someone on that level
It's also nice for Cassian to be able to chill w/ someone else and get an outside POV when he's going through something w/ his brothers
Cassian 10000% percent vibes with Tamlin's let's just fuck off and live in nature, it's very peaceful
Tamlin's great great great great great grandmother is a willow tree who has the hots for Cassian, lots of shh shhh and stroking his face with her vines when he's being so dumb
Cassian is seemingly more hot-headed than Tamlin, but Tamlin is the one with rage issues; it actually helps Tamlin a lot to have a friend who will BLURT OUT the first thing that comes to mind especially when confronted with something shitty like 'YO DUDE THAT'S A FUCKED UP THING TO SAY' and 'OK U WANNA GO?? MET ME IN THE PRYTHIAN PARKING LOT 1V1 ME'
Cassian's bluntness also helps drag Tamlin out of depressive slumps. Trauma can really re-wire someone's brain and make you act out, but Cassian also turns his loud honesty on Tamlin like 'FIRST DON'T TALK ABOUT MY BEST FRIEND LIKE THAT' and 'YOU'RE BEING A DICK is this how you feel or is this a reaction my broski' -- his heavy hand is an excellent contrast to Tamlin's other best friend LUCIEN
The humour shared between Tamlin and Cassian makes zero sense to anyone. At all. They will die laughing at a bag of 70% cacao and Cassian will over the 'o' and they've been laughing at 'caca' for the last 10 minutes. It's very freeing for them.
Tamlin loves fruit, Cassian general does not eat fruit or vegetables. Tamlin introduced Cassian to a giant fruit bat and lied to say 'he's very disappointed u don't eat ur greens' and CASSIAN TOOK THAT PERSONALLY??? he eats mangoes now and other tropical fruits to honour his batcestors bat-ancestors???
Yes, they can have an entire conversation in 'bruh's
IF we transpose this friendship that started in the canon 'Tamlin trained with the Illyrians in the war' to TODAY, Cassian never recovered from the falling out between Rhysand and Tamlin. It's really difficult for him to reconcile what happened to HIS family with his friend he knew, loved and trusted. When Rhysand vanished, his first instinct would have been to go see Tamlin for help (but there's a lot of guilt for not checking on him either since Cassian knew Tamlin didn't have.... a support system like him).
In Modern AU, Cassian and Tamlin have DEFINITELY those ugly shirts wit each other's face on them and their names in ✨GLITTER✨
Fuck it, Cassian gets really into shirt printing and just prints shirts for them for every occasion, they're ugly on purpose -- he also has swim shorts that are just Tamlin's face going 8D all over them
Cassian started the 'BIG STRETCHY' trend whenever Tamlin stretches and it's law EVERYONE DOES IT NO MATTER WHO THEY ARE
Anyway, I love them a lot and ummmm I absolutely not normal about them I will DIE on their bestie hill
THANK YOU FOR THIS ASK I HOPE U LIKED READING IT AS MUCH AS I LIKED RAMBLING ABOUT IT

omg wait thank you so much for these memes, they make me cry laugh every time 🥺
If you’re still taking requests, can you please do Nesta and Eris being totally over Cassian and Azriel’s absolute himboship? I think Az should be allowed to be a himbo sometimes too, as a treat
please!! it makes me so happy that you enjoy these!!
I am always taking requests, I'm just a little slow these days with work and summer vacations, but here is exhausted nesta and eris + the himbros.

Introduction time, introduction time!!
What should we call you?
Mathi!
How long have you been a Tamlin fan?
I read ACOTAR in 2022, but I only really started getting engaged with the series and Tamlin in 2023. I joined the fandom in March-April of 2024!
What drew you to Tamlin?
There's a lot of personal reasons that I don't want to get into, but I think the main thing that I liked was that in book 1 he was so awkward, but he was trying. I think the way the narrative treated him from ACOMAF onwards kind of made me love him harder. I ended up writing Wildflowers because I feel like he deserved a chance to be 'heard' or seen as a character deserving of empathy.
Do you have a favourite headcanon for our Spring Lord?
My favourite headcanon for Tamlin is definitely vegetarian Tamlin! Or shapeshifting while fighting Tamlin. His fight scenes are definitely some of my favourite to write!
Who’s your favourite pairing (platonic or romantic) with Tamlin?
The OG ship for me is Tamsand, but I've been really into Nyxlin. I'll ship Tamlin with about anyone except Cassian. For platonic relationships, I'm ride or die Cassian + Tamlin as besties. I will die on the himbroship. Ofc, I love the classic trio of Lucien, Andras and Tamlin. Notable mention for Jurian!
Have you named Tamlin’s family? What are their names? (Give us your headcanons too!)
Yes! TW: Abuse mentioned below + death, also Wildflowers (and extended fic universe) spoilers below Celyddon - Tamlin's father - has bull horns, large/build like a tank but people forget that he's highly intelligent, has a great ass/chest (that's where Tamlin gets it from). He's cold and cruel; he doesn't really care for his family. He sees his wife as a possession and breeding as a primitive instinct. His HL ability is earth magic. Killed by Tamlin after Tamlin killed Rhysand's father when his father only wanted to continue killing. Margret - Tamlin's mother - soft, loving, stands by her husband. She is a High Faerie and was raised with an emphasis with propriety and etiquette, which she then taught her sons. She loves all of them very much, but cannot conceive standing against her husband. Most people think her middle son (Iolin) is her favourite, but they all are her favourite. She loves her oldest because he is the first and such a gentleman, she loves her middle because he is soft and kind (most like her), and she loves her baby because he's her baby. Killed by Rhysand's father. Enfys - Tamlin's oldest brother - loyal, dutiful, and the least gifted of the three sons. Enfys grew up with the stupid idea that he would be heir one day. He endured the most abuse from his father, including having to whip and punish his younger brother (Iolin) to prove that he wasn't growing soft and affectionate. He was even sent on a tour of the six other Courts to challenge their High Lords knowing they would beat him, but Celyddon wanted to remind him how low he is on the food chain. Enfys is physically strong, slightly more than other High Faeries, but nothing notable. He is cold to his other brothers to protect them and put distance between himself and then. May or may not have been hooking up with Beron or Eris (I'm undecided for now). Killed by Rhysand's father. Iolin - Tamlin's middle brother - thoughtful, empathetic, knowledgeable and kind. Iolin is most like his mother and has the softest disposition, which digusts his father. He secretly sympathizes with humans and had a human lover from whom he learned human medicinal techniques. He would combine that with faerie healing, along with all kinds of magical healing knowledge to becomes quite a formidable healer. Still, his father didn't care to recognize this and sent him to war as a soldier. Any healing he would do was of his own volition and he was exhausted. Tortured and killed by Amarantha during the First War. (I know it's not canon, but #yolo!!!)
If you were transported into the Spring Court right now, what would be your role? (Sentry, Gardener, etc.)
Sweet nothing, I'm so tired I just want peace and quiet and zzz.
While we wait for Tamlin week, do you have any fic recommendations?
I do! There are so many good ones and most of them are on @achaotichuman's recommendation list which I will reblog shortly!

I think the fandom is lacking sillier/broaders appreciation weeks, like I wanna pull up with my homies and just have fun collectively with the fandom but we all know people are gonna complain anyway.
Like just imagine people from all sides of the fandom, pulling up to participate to 'push ur silly headcanon agenda week' bc you know I'll just be writing about the Himbroship that is Tamlin and Cassian being best friends.
Or or 'really specific prompts' week where day 6 is 'lying has just been invented' how does everyone react???? 'cONSPIRACY THEORY WEEK' maybe it was ALL JUST A DREAM but you gotta CONVINCE UR PEERS or 'powerpoint week' where u just pull up with the randomest set of slides about ur fandom favs and their correlation to being very lorge
What about rarepairs and crackships week, only pairs that have less than x amount on AO3, or that its just you and your 5 friends repping.
What about 'OC and Crossovers in Prythian' week??? We shove the canon characters to the side and dump all our fav blorbos
hUH WHAT IF WE DID THAT WHAT THEN??? WE'D HAVE TO BE A COMMUNITY

I know you like these, I know I like these (your thoughts are so nice, well formulated and pls ramble all you like)
what is your unpopular opinion on Azriel?
what is your romantic OTP for Eris?
what is my platonic OTP for Cassian?
I DO LOVE THESE AND IT MAKES ME SO HAPPY WHEN YOU SEND THEM!!! 🥹
For this ask game.
1. What is your unpopular opinion on Azriel?
I need to disclaim that I haven’t finished the series, read the bonus chapters and interact with Azriel in fandom except through the shipping wars that come across my feed or Azris.
Personally, I have two opinions that might feel unpopular.
The first is that I think Azriel’s relationship towards his brothers lacks depth and needs to be explored in the sense that his first set of brothers tortured him, and then Rhysand took him in only for Rhysand and Cassian to bully him. The wiki technically says that they stopped fighting when they realized they needed to work together to survive, but that begs the question—why didn’t Rhysand’s mother step in? Couldn’t she see his hands? She was supposed to be a friend of his mother’s but why didn’t his mother get saved or at least taken to Velaris?
I think that if Tamlin doesn’t get the tools to deal with his trauma, then the same should be true for other characters. Azriel especially because in comparison, Rhysand has everything and Azriel gets relegated to the shadows by his father? There’s potential for a lot of resentment there.
The second might get me in trouble with the fandom so I just wanna be clear I am taking no sides when I say this. I feel like Azriel’s concern about three sisters for three brothers likely stems from trauma (as mentioned above) and the idea of a mate—someone who wants you unconditionally, above all else, is appealing to MANY people both in and outside of fiction, especially for people who have experience abandonment, feel unworthy and unwanted, etc. I think it’s less about who and more about when for Azriel.
Either way, I think it’s fantastic for him to be making connections with people outside of his brothers. It’ll be good for him and open his mind to different perspectives of the world and of himself.
I could be missing information but that’s what jumps out to me.
2. What is your romantic OTP for Eris?
Keeping in mind the many disclaimers above, I think Neris is a great dynamic. I’m disappointed that canon Nessian didn’t play out the way I imagined.
While I do like Azris, the dynamic I prefer personally is something closer to Cassian x Eris which has more bite than Azris and Lussian. That said, I haven’t explore much with Eris so take this with a grain of salt.
3. What is my platonic OTP for Cassian?
THE BEST HIMBROSHIP OF ALL TIME: TAMLIN X CASSIAN. I WILL DIE ON THIS HILL I AM BEGGING THE WORLD TO SEE THE VISION 🙌

Hello it is me again, your very secret Yeehaw Santa with the fourth question of this week;
How do you like your Tamsand; in AU or Canon compliant? But it seems you have already answered, but please do elaborate more on what type of AUs you enjoy most
Yeehaw Santa will make it happen!
Good morning my dearest Yeehaw Santa! (Is your first name Yeehaw and last name Santa? 👀)
My general answer is that I like anything that gives room for creativity, it's the same with the ships and rarepairs. I like seeing how people can get clever and have fun with it.
The reason I'm leaning more and more away from canon compliant is I'm not sure where to go that's not... depressing 😭 Or that doesn't go over the whole Feyre situation.
THE TYPES OF AUs I LIKE:
Canon Divergent - Pro Tamlin (giving him more credit than the books do), developed relationships between Tamlin and the IC (and honestly the rest of the High Lords too), anything that bounces off the lore to go in a new direction. This includes fix-it fics! I'm ride or die for Tamlin & Cassian HIMBROSHIP!!
Dark Fantasy, Horror & Monsterfucker AUs - I'm a horror girlie at heart. ACOTAR is really the outlier in my preferences. I wish the series had more fantasy in it, and I would've killed for more Eldritch Horror, Mysterious Mists, and other spooky things. October is my favourite month too because of Halloween! Also werewolf!Tamlin x Vampire!Rhysand just makes sense.
Marriage/Married AUs - I've been feeling down lately, and I realized that my comfort reads are light-hearted BLs that end in happy endings, preferably married. Not me foaming at the mouth when they have wedding rings and do really normal married stuff like what do you mean they're just cooking together 😭 This also works in a ACOTAR/High Lord setting like look at them, the people's princes!!! Doing Good Things together!!
Slice of Life - Jumping off the previous point, I also really like these type of stories. It's not really an AU, but more a scenario. I just... want them to have peace doing normal ass things peacefully. Which of them would be the trophy husband? Or the house husband! What about going to the market together or Tamlin's pet rescue addiction? 🥹
Mafia AU - This is a really specific scenario that I've had in mind for a while, and I'm really slow at writing mine (it's the crossover I have with Superbats) but look this is a TWO CAKES!!! situation. Mafia boss and his loyal bodyguard who knows him so well and anticipates his needs before he even has to ask who's been in love with him for decades but hasn't ever made a move, not even when his boss is drunk and he carries him home to bed, because it's not professional???? God, I die, I die for the loyalty and the yearning. Also, hehe, the tattoos. Bonus points if it's gold-hearted mafia boss too.
Uh, I'm sure there's more! I'm very fond of badass warriors/killers who have a soft heart for the ones they love too. Honestly, I'm pretty open-minded to trying anything new too 😊
What AUs do you like secret santa? Maybe we have some in common!
