hello everyone im having an issue serializing some data. i have three tables. two entity tables and one join table. the classes are the following.

class Post(id: EntityID<Int>): IntEntity(id) {
  companion object : IntEntityClass<Post>(Posts)

  var title by Posts.title
  var description by Posts.description
  var wage by Posts.wage
  var city by Posts.city
  var state by Posts.state
  var country by Posts.country
  var employmentType by Posts.employmentType
  var seniority by Posts.seniority

  var tags by Tag via PostsTags
}

object Posts: IntIdTable() {
  val title = varchar("title", 255)
  val description = text("description")
  val wage = decimal("wage", 15, 2)
  val city = varchar("city", 255)
  val state = varchar("state", 255)
  val country = varchar("country", 255)
  val employmentType = varchar("employment_type", 255)
  val seniority = varchar("seniority", 255)
}


object PostsTags: Table("posts_tags") {
  val post = reference("post", Posts).primaryKey(0)
  val tag = reference("tag", Tags).primaryKey(1)
}


class Tag(id: EntityID<Int>): IntEntity(id) {
  companion object : IntEntityClass<Tag>(Tags)

  var name by Tags.name
  var version: String by Tags.version
  var type by Tags.type

  var posts by Post via PostsTags
}

object Tags: IntIdTable() {
  val name = varchar("name", 255)
  val version = varchar("version", 255)
  val type = varchar("type", 255)
}

However when I do the following query i get an error

return transaction {
      Posts
        .selectAll()
        .andWhere {
          Posts.title like "%$query%"
        }
        .map {
          it.toPost()
        }
    }

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Property klass should be initialized before get.

Are my models incorrect?
