It is with slight regret that I must give you all an extra week and another hint. Use them to their fullest extent!
I no longer have space in my signature, so I will post the clue here.
The target does not do Scrambler, but you all are on the right track with the concept of Scrambler.
BWhat do they all have the same of?
AThe Lady died with him but was not born until long after, in 1954.
Correction: A + B + [space] + [Two letters, both uppercase]
If the Lady were real, she would not have died 362 years before she was born.

I made an error in lullaby B. I meant to write "Half a billion Mosquitoes," not "Half a million Mosquitoes." It has now been edited in the clue post.
Thank you for pointing this out and good luck with the clue.

lots of discord activity last night; maybe y'all forum ppls can make sense of all this

jasp: lady died in 1592 from the sig
jasp: castle doune used for a lot of filming, notably LotR and [Monty Python and the Holy Grail]
BlueRobin: There was a reference to a holy grail in one of the puzzlebaron cryptograms Your Bread and Butter (The Holy Grail)
jasp: fellowship of the ring first published in 1954, could have relation to LotR?
jasp: b is listed before a in the signature, any significance?
poonda: The target might have some relation to eggs then
(idk if this one was a joke or not but putting it here anyways)
person: All the things in lullaby B except the mosquitoes have roughly the same mass (around 1000 kgs).
(This was pre-correction so idk what the mosquitoes are at now)
person: harry potter is mentioned, so there might be some significance with it
dea/blueRobin: harry potter is played by Daniel RedCliff so there might be some significance
BlueRobin: whaur kinda sounds like whar
dea: could be a mishearing of mondegreen, maybe mound o' green or mountain green
person: corn grows, that could be what the growing thing refers to
jasp: maybe scrambled could refer to mondegreen being scrambled to yield something
person: mondegreen is an anagram of green demon
person/blueRobin: mass could refer to massachusetts or something
jasp: not many words end with mass, there's amass but not much else
sassy delayed the correction until morning but spent a long time drafting a reply to something. might give some info

It looks giving increasingly-subtle ID clues and hints is the only way to keep you all going and messaging about this assassination, and keep you all going I must!

The uppercase letters sometimes have periods after them.

Have another clue. Please think and discuss about this one.

That which grows and the Lady are siblings.

The discord folks say it might be referring to "ton" or "mass" and that the two letters later on might refer to a school (M.S. or H.S.). person-v132 compiled a list of all schools whose names end in "ton"

THere's been a lot more discord activity, so have another discord recap!

rachmaninov: periods could refer to a country abbrev like u.s. or u.k. or something similar
notabirdsaurus: only thing with someting before it could think of is kim jong u.n.
person-v132: could be a school (m.s. or h.s.) -- any that end in "ton" or "mass"?
venom: acton
person: acton has extra things after acton and before high school
notabirdsaurus: thomas kinda feels like it ends with mass. Maybe thomas russell or thomas glover or thomas jefferson hsst?
BlueRobin: Could find all the ton/mass schools on duos
person-v132: [list of all schools ending in "ton"]
banexet: acton and lexington are in massachusetts, which relate to mass
rachmaninov: the article about the murderered Earl of Moray refers to a book written by someone named Harry Potter. coincidence?
banexet: oprah born in 1954
person: the thing once grown is presumably the answer to part a?
BlueRobin: target might help out with scrambler without doing the event. maybe VENOM?
person/BlueRobin: if it's lexington then part A must refer to "lexing" something or something "lexing"
person: lexical analysis might fit
BlueRobin: There's a norwegian songwriter named dylan mondegreen
couchpotato: could refer to eggcorn -- related to mondegreens + references to eggs (scrambled) and corn (maize)
some discussion about the officer clue because idk
couchpotato: song's earl of moray assassinated in 1592, discordian calendar year is 2758, when searched in discord, there's an xkcd about Ea-nāṣir and some bear-fish things
rachmaninov: there's a re-enactor(?) called(?) Sigird Mondegreen which might be relevant

hope this helps forum folks!

Here. Have a (hopefully) last hint. Good luck.

"hundreds of years..."
BWhat do they all have the same of?
AThe Lady died with him but was not born until long after, in 1954.
Correction: A + B + [space] + [Two letters, both uppercase]
If the Lady were real, she would not have died 362 years before she was born.
