Rating: T | Word Count: 1012 | Masterlist | AO3 Link

Summary: Ez asks Tamlin about the poems he wrote for Flora during their courtship.

Warnings: implied polycule, OC/Lucien implied interruption of fun time, bad poetry, a child, crude humor

A/N: okay I swear I’m done and taking a break now 🫣😅 also Tamlin’s limericks are corny. Just be aware 😂 also if this doesn’t meet the rules I can remove the tags

Once Ez got older, every weekend Tamlin made a point to spend time with him. They were in the library that particular afternoon. Tamlin was reading and Ez had been too before he abandoned his book for coloring pens. It was silent save for the clock ticking. Until Ez looked up from his paper.

“Papa, is it true you wrote poems for mama?”

Tamlin looked up from his book. He narrowed his gaze at his son's innocent face.

“And who told you that?”

“Lu said you wrote poems for mama. Before you married. He said you didn’t know how to flirt so you put your feelings on paper.”

Tamlin was going to murder Lucien. “Yes, Ez. I wrote poems for your mother.” He ignored the flirting remark for now.

“Can I read them?” His son's eyes were wide with excitement.

“I’d have to find them.”

A lie. Tamlin panicked internally, again cursing Lucien. His poems- limericks really, were silly and crude. They also had topics his son was not old enough to be reading about. Or ever considering they were to his mother. The one Tamlin wrote about Flora’s breasts came to mind. His cheeks heated but his son didn’t seem to notice.

“Maybe mama has them!” Ez gasped. “I’ll go ask.”

“No.” Tamlin stood from his chair. His son froze in place. “I mean mama is busy. We can ask her at dinner. It’ll be. Surprise.”

That seemed to do it.

“Okay papa.” And Ez went back to coloring.

Tamlin needed to find his wife and warn her. He closed his book and stood from his chair.

“I’ll be right back. You keep drawing and you can show me your progress when I return.”

Ez nodded, not looking up from his paper. With that Tamlin left the library. He knew exactly where Flora was and hopefully he was about to kill two birds with one stone. He went through the old nursery and knocked on the door that joined their rooms. He didn’t wait for a reply, using his magic to unlock the door. Sure enough Flora was pulling the sheet up on her body and Lucien was doing the same with the duvet.

“Gods Tam, I thought you were Ez.” Flora let out a sigh of relief.

“Lucien,” Tamlin glared at him. “Why did you tell our son I wrote his mother poems?” Lucien fell back on the pillows laughing. “This is not funny. He’s asking to see them.”

“Oh no.” Flora’s eyes went wide.

“Exactly!” Tamlin put his hands on his hips. “He’s going to ask you at dinner to get them.”

“He asked me what I was doing yesterday and I told him I was writing poems,” Lucien was still laughing. “He asked what those were and I said it was what you used to court your wife with.”

Flora kicked her foot under the blanket. “I liked those poems thank you very much.”

“You’re both forgetting how inappropriate they are. And not for our son to see.” Tamlin huffed, brushing back his long hair nervously.

“Well, not all of them were inappropriate.” Flora let the sheet fall while she thought. “I can find a few clean ones and show them.”

“I would rather you didn’t.”

Lucien sat up still grinning after he finally stopped laughing. “Tam, what’s the worst that could happen?”

As it turned out, the worst that could happen was Ez having an honest tongue like Lucien. At dinner, Flora handed him two of the tamest poems. Ez looked at the first one while he ate, all of them silent while he read.

“Papa, these aren’t good.” Ez furrowed his brows. “You like this, mama?”

The whole table erupted with laughter. Even Tamlin, with his face in his hand, had to laugh. Ez did not take that well. He shrunk into his seat, trying to hide. Elain noticed first, being closest.

“Honey, we’re not laughing at you.” Ez didn’t seem to be buying it. “You said something funny just now that is all.”

“Brutal honesty is the term,” Lucien pointed his fork at Ez. “Always be honest. Cauldron knows your father needs it.”

“For what it’s worth,” Flora grabbed one of the poems, looking it over again. “I like it because it came from the heart. Even if it isn’t the best, it’s still from him. Your papa wrote it for me and I always treasure that. That’s why I kept them, my pumpkin.”

Tamlin took his wife’s hand and squeezed it. She squeezed back at him lovingly.

“Maybe tomorrow,” he turned to their son. “We can go over some poetry books. Look up the rules and both of us take turns writing. You can help me improve.”

The way Ez beamed at him melted his heart and made the mild embarrassment worth it. When Ez looked away, he still shot Lucien a look that said this wasn’t over. Then again, Tamlin realized from the way Lucien grinned back, that was probably his plan all along.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Flora was laughing so hard she was wheezing. After putting Ez to bed, Flora pulled some of the more questionable limericks out.

“Your breasts are the size of a melon. It makes me want to act like a felon,” she couldn’t read the rest from laughing so hard. “I don’t even know what a felon is!”

It was Tamlin’s turn to laugh.

“You didn’t say that when I first gave it to you.” He used his teeth to nip at her ear.

“Our boy was correct to question my judgment. How did I ever read these and think ‘gosh Tamlin is so sexy for writing that’?”

“Is that a challenge wildflower?”

The air in the room changed dramatically, both of their scents sweetening as they looked each other in the eyes.

Tamlin chuckled again. “You question my methods yet I can smell you just like the day I gave it to you.”

“That’s because it’s you, love,” she replied, tapping his nose with her index finger.

The limericks and poems were quickly abandoned to the floor shortly after.

Hey! You probably saw me do this with Val! I just wanted to ask some questions to get to know my moots better :)) (if you don't want to answer the questions that's fine too, don't feel pressured!)❤️ Happy new year! 🎊

What's your favorite food?

Favorite place you have visited?

Do you have a favorite artist or a band?

Favorite type of fan fiction?

Your favorite time of the year?

Favorite aot characters?

klara :D hii 💕

omg i feel so honored you consider me a moot of yours 🥺

yes i saw the ask you sent val and it's such a cute idea :3

also happy new year to you too sweetie 🥂🎊

i love talking about food lol - i'm a vegetarian but i went to cooking school so i have decent knowledge about food in general i'd say my fav food ever tho is french fries 😂 they're simple but never fail to make grin from ear to ear when i get to eat some

ok so i've been to a few places in europe but my fav so far is either innsbruck or prague - both of those cities have beautiful architecture and i loved learning about their history as well :D

oh god you're rly gonna make me choose? 😅 hmm the most art i consume in general is music and there's very few genres i don't like so it's rly hard to give a short answer lol the first artist that comes to mind rn is kordhell (spotify link) there's not a single song they made that i dislike i get that this style can be repetitive for some but i really enjoy listening to it a lot^^

fan fiction huh? 😏 as much as i love fluff i'm a sucker for hurt/comfort and angst with a (at least somewhat) happy ending i enjoy all kinds of fics as long as there're none of my triggers involved ofc (sadly i still find some bc not everyone tags the things that trigger me since they're quite "normal" so i get a not so welcome surprise every now and then lol) some of my fav things to read are royal!au, soulmate!au, arranged marriage and slow burns 🥰

my favorite time of the year would be anything other than summer 😂 i rly don't handle heat well and sunlight gives me a headache all year round and in summer there's just so much more of it lmao (i'm a complete night owl btw)

jfalksfjklasf aot yes - ok a bit of context i started watching aot but quit after the first season bc i didn't rly find it all that interesting 😅 i predicted most plot twists or had a vague idea of what was gonna happen but i rly liked sasha and armin (i was aware that levi has a huge fanbase and i rly didn't understand why lol) then a few months later i thought i'd give it another try and holy did the levi fan train hit me hard - idk how i was able to ignore this precious bean the first time around i also grew to love hange a lot and i'm gay as hell for pieck but at the end of the day levi is my favorite - he's nr 1 on my simp list and he always will be ❤️

ok this was very long 😅 i usually don't talk much irl but when i feel comfortable it takes a lot to shut me up esp when i'm invested in the topic

tysm for this 🥺 seeing you in my inbox made me rly rly happy 💕

Do you feel like the Kitty shippers ruined the ship a bit? In no other area of the tsc fandom have I felt so....unhappy? Ty was such a comfort character for me, he was autistic like me but he wasnt shown in a stereotypical or negative way and Kit was amazing and never questions whether or not to like him based on his autism (a common feature in autistic romance yanno).

But I have really had to remove myself from this are of the fandom because the longer I am here the more I hate it. They have ruined Ty for me. Completely. I have already made the decision to not read twp because of it, am no longer reading any fics and blocked several blogs for their constant anger and negativity.

Idk I just wanted to unload a bit of this cause i am very sad about something I loved so much and that made me so happy being twisted like it has been. I was so excited for autistic representation but it feels like his actual character has been completely dismissed.

Hey! Don't worry, I completely understand wanting to rant about something that frustrates you, and dw, you're completely valid.

And to answer your question, yes. They did ruin it. At least for me.

Okay. First: I'm happy he was such a character of comfort, that you felt like he was written properly and not stereotypically presented. I'm so sorry that they ruined his character for you. They did so for me, but we night have different reasons why? But both of them we're because of fandom. It sucks, I know.

As you and many people can tell, I've also started distancing myself from that side of the fandom, for that reason.

It's understandable why you wouldn't want to read TWP because of this. Kit and Ty are characters who are difficult to separate in the fandom. I'm also guilty of this with Ty, but I don't see anything really wrong with as long as I'm not complaining about how Kit is only paired with Ty, and vise versa. Ya know? That might've not made any sense, but I've seen people bring Ty into posts where it wasn't about him. That's what irritates me, personally.

Yes, I've also blocked some blogs because I just couldn't take it anymore. It's so sad that two characters that were so purely good could have fans so hateful.

Oh! Also, fan!Kitty is toxic as hell for several reasons and it's so sickening to read about. I have read a few good fics, and I don't doubt that they're are gonna be more, but the majority is 🤢

My pinned post is a big problem I've read about in more fics then not.

I know how frustrating it can be, and it absolutely sucks. I'm sorry. (⊃｡•́‿•̀｡)⊃ (If you want it! :))

Sorry if I didn't address something you wanted, I just got out of school and I'm all 😵

(Send me another ask if you wanted me too!)

#oh i can get HEATED about this topic 😂😅 #also if i sound a little to proper that's because i just got out of school 😂 #does that make sense? 😂 #kit herondale #anon #jenny rants #not ty friendly #opinions tag #negativity tag #:3 #ty blackthorn #kitty #kit x ty
