Tamlin and the Fiddle

A Deeper Meaning Behind His Instrument Choice

One of the most fascinating yet often under hyped details in ACOTAR is the fact that Sarah J. Maas specifically chose the fiddle as Tamlin’s instrument. Of all the possible musical choices, why a fiddle? I think this decision speaks volumes about his character and his deepest desires.

First, let’s clear up a common misconception: the fiddle and the violin are not the same. While they may look alike, their cultural significance and playing styles set them apart. The violin is often associated with classical music, refinement, and royalty—it’s the instrument of courts and high society. Meanwhile, the fiddle is raw, lively, and deeply connected to common folk and traditional music. It’s the music of celebration, storytelling, and community rather than aristocracy.

And this is exactly why the fiddle is perfect for Tamlin. He never truly wanted to be a High Lord. He never sought power, political maneuvering, or the weight of ruling. What he craved was freedom—a simple, peaceful life where he could just exist among his people,

playing music with them, not above them.

Even in parties, he wasn’t hosting extravagant royal gatherings dripping with status and hierarchy—he was participating, playing the fiddle, blending into the moment rather than presiding over it.

Tamlin’s relationship with power and responsibility is complex, but his choice of the fiddle tells us everything we need to know: deep down, he never wanted the crown—he wanted the music, freedom, peace.

He wanted a normal life.

DRAW YOUR TAMLIN!

We all know how High Lord is blonde and beautiful, with green eyes and the ability to shapeshift into an antlered bear-wolf, but we all also have our little headcanons for his appearance. Does he always have his antlers? A tail? Is he more lithe with hidden strength or a big, bulky male? What about his outfit?

With @geniemillies help, we have these doodle templates and we want YOU to fill out with how you see Tamlin! You don't need to be an artist, we love silly drawings too!

[theegemini92]

It’s been a minute on here but I’m back full swing. After a reread of ACOTAR I wanted to point out somethings. I will strictly dedicate a whole lot more to my HL OF SPRING 🥰

Is Tamlin an ALPHA BRO?

I hate seeing videos of women put this guy in certain spaces and call him a narc when he’s Infact far from that. Which males do we see dominate and are called ALPHA A HOLES? The batboys..

What Tamlin has done that don’t fit the gender male alpha norm:

• writes poetry

• he plays the fiddle

• dances all night long with ferret.

• they don’t open up and talk about their emotions because it makes them look weak? Tamlin opens up to feyfoo about his childhood

• Tam feeds and clothes her, not his mother’s clothes mind you because he doesn’t have mummy issues.

• he didn’t want the crown of high lord which sons have killed themselves for in prythian. Or any normal man seeking to take over his dad’s company to prove himself.

Are these not the things these alpha red pill idiots spout online? They would never do this with women because it’s what SIMPS do?

The only thing that these little minded people use against him with a gender role is when feyho asked about being high lady and he said there’s no such thing. And there wasn’t TO HIS KNOWLEDGE. He being the last son meant his education was not as extensive as Rapesand who is an only son. So many of the things he had to learn on his own as he went.

I never actually planned on posting this old sketch but I cleaned it up a little to post for @tamlinweek 's prompt for today, Dark Spring/Spring Mythology and Celebrations! Who doesn't love a little Calanmai Tamlin. I'd assume he wouldn't actually use a bow for The Hunt but I thought it'd be fun to give him one anyway

Day 2 : Dark Spring

So the idea behind this is that Spring is reclaiming its High Lord.

@tamlinweek Day 2: Polycules & Platonics/Worship

As much as I hate how things ended up between Tamlin, Rhys, and Feyre, there is a small part of me that wishes they would reconcile a some point. Rhys and Tamlin clearly had a deep history before what happened with their parents, Tamlin truly loved Feyre (no mating bond required).

And I'm of the belief that Nyx, as Feyre's son, inherited all of the powers that she did from the other High Lords, including Shapeshifting. Imagine Nyx meeting Beast Form Tamlin (because he's been utterly miserable) and being like "oh I can do that!" and changing into a mini dark-palette version of his beast form with little Illyrian wings?

That and the good poly rep.

Happy Tamlin week!

Wonderful commission by Kannamora

This was a commission for my TamlinxOC fanfic:

[highlordofkrypton]

I can't find the words to say how excited I am for Tamlin Week. I joined the community last year about a couple week before Tamlin Week, and through this event, I met some of the nicest, kindest, supportive and fucking hilarious people.

This year, I can feel the hype, and how everyone's gearing up for something genuinely special in our community. We get to come together once a year and go out of our way not only to show our love to our favourite character, but also to each other and that's the most important part to me.

I can't wait to for the week, and I hope everyone has fun! I'm so happy to be a member of this community, and I hope we keep the warmth even as we grow!

Also, I really, really want to emphasize that you don't need to be a creator, a writer or an artist to participate. You can definitely submit headcanons, or work on your own way of contributing! Whether it's creating something outside of the prompts, a bullet point of ideas you have, memes or even just commenting, liking and reblogging.

Anyways, all this to say I love this community very much and I'm really, really excited to celebrate with you guys, so much that I feel like such a dork getting all sappy and emotional on my blog!

Dark Spring: The one who devours

This ink and gouache painting is sadly not fully rendered, but I still want to share what I do have for day 2 of @tamlinweek , which is tamlin as the Green Man, at the height of his power; which I suspect isn't simply shape-shifting, but true biomancy.

"The beast, with its claws and teeth isn't anything to fear, you should be more worried about the swarm that follows in its wake" - General Jurian, about the high lord of spring.

Day 2 • Dark Spring 🌕🍄 @tamlinweek

[titaniaqueenoffairie]

Does Tamlin need healing or revenge?

I’m definitely one of those who hopes for a healing arc for Tamlin, where he gets his life together and redeems his court.

But deep down, I crave a revenge arc (Though I know that’s never going to happen with SJM). I want him to rise up and become the monster everyone thinks he is, to become so terrifying that Amarantha would seem like an angel by comparison. Not to innocent people ofcourse but to those who kicked him in his down, and those who think of him the worst despite everything thing he did.

A special Tamlin Week surprise: Tamlin reads your fics!

The mods here at Tamlin Week are SO delighted and honored to present Henry Kramer, Tamlin's voice actor of the ACOTAR graphic audio books, reading Tamlin fanfiction lines in character.

None of this would be possible without @laziestkiwi, who messaged us and got us in touch with Henry. We crowdsourced some of your favorite fanfic lines, and sent them to Henry to peruse. He picked a few of those lines to read and recorded them FOR FREE!

If you enjoy Henry's work as much as we do, be sure to follow him on Twitch, Instagram, or Facebook. You can also get in touch with him on his website here to commission him for voice acting work.

As a side note: We sent Henry almost 60 lines of fanfiction, with no expectation that he would read every single one. The lines read were chosen by Henry, who is not involved in fandom in any way. The chosen lines and authors do not represent any favoritism by the mods here, they were simple the quotes that spoke most to Henry.

And now, on to the main event! Tamlin bringing your fanfiction to life!

Bravery Is In Spite Of Fear by @achaotichuman

“You never lost me.” He murmured, pressing another kiss, this one to her brow, “You have never lost me.”

Am I making you feel sick? by @yaralulu

Be angry. Show me how angry you are.

When Lucien opened his mouth to say another irritable thing, Tamlin shut him up the only way he knew how. He kissed him.

Eternal Equinox by @sonics-atelier

Spring and Autumn, now as one,   A union blessed beneath the sun.   Through seasons’ turn, their love shall bloom,            Eternal life through earth’s perfume.

carry that weight by @fourteentrout

"I need to protect my people in the ways I know how. I'm needed out there more than I am in here." He answered anyway, nodding towards the forest beyond the grounds.

“Does that unmake me? Am I a new being with every form I take?” The High Lord asked without bite. “I am who I am.”

borrowed time by @ipona

"I meant what I said." He looks at Rhys, catching his gaze, holding it for a moment longer than Rhys expects him to. "And who of us isn't a brute, really?"

Songs of Spring by @themildestofwriters

“It’s a song about hope,” Tamlin said, finally, slouching forward and meeting Tarquin’s eyes. “About how, even after the darkest times, I could still find happiness — joy, even. It might take years, decades, centuries, even, but it will pass as surely as night turns to day.”

Tarquin nodded, understanding, and smiled. “Or as winter turns to summer. A true song of Spring, then.”

cosmogeny by @highlordofkrypton

It takes Tamlin a moment to find the words he’d like to gift to Nyx. No matter what they are, Nyx will cherish them, as he has with any other moment in the presence of his light. When Tamlin speaks, it’s with a wistful smile on his handsome face.

“Because I’ve just met you, and it’s always a shame to lose someone, especially someone you’re fond of.”

How Nesta Archeron Learned to Trap A Beast by @achaotichuman

“Ready?” Tamlin asked. Nesta didn’t answer him, just walked into the forests before them. Tamlin let her get far enough into the tree lines that he couldn’t see her before he shouted, “Wrong way!” “Fuck you!”

“I’m here. I’m here Nesta.” He said. “Stay with me.” She whispered, “Please.” There was a moment of pure silence, one that bore into her heavy soul. “I would never leave.” He promised her, “Never.”

The Gown by @goforth-ladymidnight

It's @tamlinweek and I couldn't resist redoing one of my early, early art pieces that I did for it last year for Day 1: Change

You can find the (almost embarrassingly basic lol) original here.
