Aunt May's Pumpkin Patch
Pairing: Yelena Belova x Fem! Reader
Summary: You surprise Yelena with her first pumpkin patch adventure.
Fluff
Warnings: None | 1.5K
Translations: Detka (baby),
AC: Just a little idea my friend gave me when he said he was excited to go to the pumpkin patch this year! I hope you all enjoy! x
October Special 2024 Masterlist
In the cozy apartment filled with the aroma of waffles and fresh coffee, Yelena smiles softly as she wraps her arms around you from behind, placing a kiss on your left cheek. “All this is already making waking up before 9am worth it” she says softly as you melt in her arms. “Well, I figured if I feed you and caffeinate you, you won’t be so grumpy” you playfully tease as you place the last waffle from the pan to the plate.
Yelena spins you gently in her arms to face her, “I am good at my job, but I still cannot work out what you have planned” she says, making you chuckle. “Good! Because it’s supposed to be a surprise, now, kiss the chef and have some breakfast” you smiled softly, “we’re on a time schedule” you added. Yelena kissed you softly but deeply, pulling you even closer into her arms while you managed to skilfully turn the stove off without breaking the kiss.
“Let me take that for you, can’t have you doing all the work” Yelena playfully winked after pulling away and taking the small plate of stacked waffles.
Sitting across from one another, breakfast adds to the tone for a perfect day, Yelena overloads her waffles with maple syrup like a child at an ice cream store and you comfortably top your plate with your favorite fruit. Yelena pours herself a black coffee and digs into the golden waffles dripping with syrup.
After breakfast, it would only be 2 hours drive to one of the most popular pumpkin patches in New York. The morning sun filtering through the trees, casting a warm glow over the landscape that Yelena looked over at while you drove. Her favorite Metallica playlist making her foot tap along with the beat, setting a slightly different tone as you drive carefully down the countryside roads. Autum leaves painted the open land in shades of gold, orange, and deep crimson and soon enough Yelena broke, asking you all kinds of questions about where this travel was taking her.
It was only a matter of time before a sign on the side of the road would give-away the surprise. “Aunt May’s pumpkin patch, 200 metres”, Yelena’s eye lit up as she looked over at you, “Please tell me we are turning in 200 metres!!” She said with excitement. You knew how much she loved American Christmases and had no doubt she would love the extra activities that came along with Halloween.
“Surprise!” You replied with a playful chuckle.
After parking, the two of you were instantly wrapped in the smell of fresh apples and spiced cider wafting from nearby stalls. In the heart of the patch, you stop to warm the insides of your bodies with hot chocolate before looking over at the paddock of vibrant orange pumpkins scattered across the field, each one a potential canvas for creativity.
Wrapped in cozy sweaters, hand in hand and sipping from the take-away cups, your cheeks flushed from the brisk air as Yelena looks over at you, admiring the sparkle in your eyes before she places a gentle kiss on your cheek, “thank you” she whispers.
“You’re welcome my love” you give her a smile before taking another sip of your hot coco. Yelena’s eyes scanned over everything she could see in sight, everything from a petting zoo to the pumpkin field to the carnival like games and ending with the small farmers market, she was amazed with just how big Aunt May’s Pumpkin Patch truly was.
“Where would you like to start?” You asked her, seeing the look in her eyes. She smiled as she looked at you, “shall we start with the farmers market?”
“Sure” you returned the smile.
The stalls were full of people selling all kinds of different goods, some hand-made crafts, some home-made sauces and pies and some selling products useful to those who are farmers. As you both strolled through the market, hand in hand, you stopped at a stall selling souvenirs for Aunt May’s pumpkin patch. Yelena couldn’t help but smile softly when you picked up a snow globe of the pumpkin patch, instead of little snowflakes, little autumn leaves danced around inside before landing on the globes floor.
Letting go of your hand, she reached for her phone, “how much are the snow globes?” She asked the saleswoman behind the table. “$15 each or 2 for $25” she smiled kindly. “We’ll take two please” Yelena replied, getting her Apple Pay ready as the woman packed two boxed snow globes into a plastic bag.
“Lena, you didn’t have to buy them” you said looking up at her as she smiled softly at you. “Ones for us and the other is for Nat” she said.
She placed the plastic bag around her wrist before taking your warm hand once more. At a nearby stall, you came across home-made candles, candles, their flickering flames promising warmth and comfort for the chilly evenings ahead. You and Yelena spent a few moments smelling each candle on offer before choosing a couple of autumn-scented candles and envisioning cozy nights in together, watching movies and eating mac n cheese.
After the farmers market, Yelena’s eyes were drawn to the crowd that began to take seats in front of the fenced off part of the pumpkin patch. A large sign advertising pig racing which had Yelena interested in the event. “Okay, I gotta watch this” she said before the two of you walked over and took a seat on one of the benches.
There were six pigs wearing colorful bandanas that you and Yelena took bets on. “I’m betting on the one with the little pumpkins on it!” You declared, pointing to the light pink pig wearing a black and orange bandana covered with patterned pumpkins. “Oh yeah? You think that pig is gonna win against that one?” Yelena replied, pointing at the pig with a skeleton printed bandana.
“I know it!” You reply, giving her a playful wink.
As the race begins, your enthusiastic cheers join delighted screams and laughter from the crowd. With every turn and squeal from the pigs, Your and Yelena can’t contain the delight, leaning into each other, your hearts racing alongside the little contestants as they charge toward the finish line.
The pig wearing the pumpkin patterned bandana speeds ahead, bypassing Yelena’s choice of pig as you jump up, squealing in victory as the little pig crosses the finish line. You embrace Yelena in a playful hug, teasing her that you knew your pig would win. The crowd applauded the activity while children jumped and cheered as they held onto the wooden fence.
Before you knew it, lunch time was just around the corner and to add to the growing surprises of Aunt May’s Pumpkin Patch, there was a restaurant on site with a café next door. You and Yelena opted for a meal rather than a corn dog from one of the food trucks that were by the entrance.
You and Yelena enjoyed a warm lunch together, Yelena shared her excitement for the next activity. She was set on playing a few of the carnival games before you would take her on the hayride around the pumpkin field to finish off the day before picking out a pumpkin each to carve at home. Her competitive side got the better of her as you both turned each game into a little contest between you both, Yelena winning by one extra game but although she took her win with pride, seeing your smile and hearing your laugh was the best prize she won.
The sun hangs low in the sky, casting a warm glow over the field of pumpkins as you and Yelena sit comfortably on a haybale, hand in hand on a wooden cart hooked to the back of a tractor. Rustic fairy lights, strung delicately across the railing of the wooden cart twinkle like stars as the tractor rumbles along the field.
Yelena gently rests her head on your shoulder, enjoying the experience. She’s sure to note that autumn is definitely on her list of favorite seasons. As the tractor pauses near a patch of giant pumpkins, you both hop off, eager to explore as you wander among the pumpkins, discussing which ones might be best to carve later. Wanting to remember this moment for years to come, you snap a photo of Yelena a few steps ahead of you, the sunsetting making for the perfect lighting.
The day comes to an end with you and Yelena lugging the biggest pumpkins you could find back to the car, placing them in the trunk before Yelena gently wraps her arms around your waist and pulls you into her hold. “Thank you for the perfect day detka” she smiles softly before kissing you deeply and tenderly. You smile against her lips as time seems to stand still as you savor this peaceful moment in her arms, “you made it perfect, my love” you replied in a sweet tone.

Revenge
Pairing: Eris x Reader
Summary: When your ex destroys your most precious thing what do you do? Cry? Of course but not before taking revenge.
A/N: First Eris fic!!🥳 Reader is Rhysand's sister. I think I went a little overboard... oh well🤷♀️
Masterlist
○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●
What The Fuck?
I gasp the second I walk into my library, noticing the gaps in the shelves. My library shelves never have space. The whole room is filled with my most precious obsession.
My books.
Where the hell are my books?
When I walk deeper into the room, I notice a big box in the middle. The rectangular box is gift wrapped with a red shiny wrap, held together by a orange bow on top.
On closer observation, I see an envelope tucked under the ribbon. I take it out and open it, seeing only two sentences scribbled in perfectly fine handwriting, a handwriting I know by heart. Eris.
Seems like we are at war now, sweetheart. How do you like my gift?
My eyebrows furrow. I put down the note and envelope, and open the bow, tearing the gift wrap, I lift the lid.
I freeze upon seeing ash.
The box is filled with ash. Grey mixing with black, creating a rather beautiful image. Except it isn't admirable. When I touch the ash mixed with small pieces of paper that hasn't fully burned. My books.
He burned my books.
I intake a sharp breath, my vision blurs as tears fill my eyes but I don't let them fall. Some people might say I'm overreacting, but I'm not. My books are everything to me. I love them. I treat them better then I treat myself.
And He burned My Books.
That piece of shit.
He knew how much I love them. I've talked to him thousands of time about my books, expressing my feelings about them. I don't even let anyone so much as, touch my books. But I let him. I trusted him.
I loved him. We broke up because his father attacked us. Barron ordered a few Autum Court soldiers to parad down at the Court of Nightmares and kill innocent people, not that the people living there are innocent in anyway, but by attacking a part of Night Court, he declared War.
I gave him a choice, choose between me and his father. I was stupid enough to hope he would choose me. Of course it would be his father. Even though he hates his father to guts, he would still need him to make him high lord. And being The High Lord of Autum Court meant more to him than anything else, including me.
So now we are at War. Two courts fighting against each other. What could go wrong, eh? Apparently everything.
None of the other courts want to help any of us. They don't want unnecessary violence, which is alright, considering Night Court is much stronger than Autum Court. Barron is a fool to think he can win. And now, Eris is too, as it seems.
I blink my eyes clear of tears and stand up. I count the empty shelves where there once were books, trying to see how many I lost. Sixty–Five. He destroyed sixty–five of my most loved books.
Rage burns in my veins. Hurt overcome by anger. The need to burn him in exchange fills my entire body. But I calm myself before I do something idiotic. I take deep breaths trying to plan what I'm going to do in return. I get out of the room, taking careful steps as I go.
You want to play? Fine. Let's play.
-☆-
I twist my hand, snapping the necks of the two guards standing in front of the entrance. I slam open the doors without touching them, barreling down the halls of Autum Court Palace.
This is too easy.
Killing every guard that comes in my way, I go to the main hall. I almost feel bad for the people loosing their life over something their stupid prince did, but my mind is seeing and feeling nothing but red.
When I first described my plan to Rhysand, he was hesitant to let me leave, but realizing that we would be at advantage in this fight by the end of it, he gave me permission.
Now here I am. Walking through enemy land, like a I own it. Removing every obstacle that comes between me and my destination.
I push the doors to the throne room open, and scoff at the few high fea trying to keep me out by their so called magic. I raise an eyebrow and stand their for a few minutes, giving them a chance to stop me. I smirk at their pathetic attempts of imprison me.
I am most powerful here, and they know it.
I raise my hands and twist my wrists, snapping a dozen necks in one motion. I walk father into the room rolling my eyes at the laying bodies. Such a mess.
I take a look around the room. The red carpet running in a straight line from the door to the throne. The levels containing seats for every nobal in Barron's circle. And finally the throne Eris so badly wants to sit at.
Coloured with different shades of red, orange and yellow mixing together. Backrest shaped like fire, built so tall I have to crane my neck to see the top. It's beautiful, I'm not going to lie. Almost makes me feel bad for what I'm about to do.
I turn back around, walking out the same way I walked in. Passing the fallen bodies, I snap my fingers once. Heat explods behind me as I walk out of the door. When I turn to look at the damage I'm doing, I smile.
Fire is lined up from the throne, quickly catching and burning everything in it's way. I smile brighter when I slam the doors shut and drop a small note on the ground near them. He burned my books so I'm burning to only thing he holds most dear in this entire world.
It seems we are. Hope you like my gift.

Last But Not Least Part 3
Again, thanks for all the likes on Part 2! I think this part was better than the previous 2. I tried to take my time more and I hope that has turned out for the better. Feel free to leave comments, I love feedback! Unless folks specifically request to see Lucien and Elain's trip to the Day Court/their first mating, this will be the final installment of this little ficlet. Next on my docket takes place in this same head cannon but will have more Feyre, Rhys, Nesta, and Cassian in it (as well as Elain and Lucien). Let me know what you all want to read and I'll try to accomodate.
************************************************************************
Lucien had arrived in the Autum Court with plenty of time to support Eris and Gerod’s armies as they assaulted the Forest House from the north. Finn and Isak were attacking from the south, from Spring’s border. If there had been time to think and plan, Lucien would have gone to Summer and asked Tarquin for help penning Beron in on the west, but the Vanserra brothers were focused on vengeance and haste.
The Vanserra brothers. Lucien realized while commanding a contingent of Eris’ forces that he didn’t fall into that category. Not really. He had every right to his anger and to fight along side his brothers. His mother had been murdered, but they were his half-brothers. She’d used some of her last minutes in this world to tell Lucien that he wasn’t one of Beron’s sons at all. Lucien was the son of Helion Spell-Cleaver.
He’d gone through so many emotions that day. There was concern when Elain nudged him, hope when she’d said she missed him, even more hope as they spent the day together, heartache at losing his mother, rage at Beron for murdering her, and shock at learning of his true parentage. He’d been a courtier long enough, though, to think through the implications of that information. He had to be careful what role he played in Beron’s demise. It could never be construed as an act of the Day Court, and if Lucien was truly Helion’s son then . . . . So Lucien had given Eris and Gerod the satisfaction of the combined killing blow.
Thankfully the power of the High Lord transferred to Eris immediately. Lucien was still surprised that he was grateful for that outcome. They’d made their peace, though, once Eris explained his role in Lucien’s escape to Spring. Then when Eris had realized Azriel was his mate, Lucien had been the first brother he told. Ever since then, they’d been on reasonably good terms. Heck, Eris was one of the ones who kept telling Lucien not to give up hope with Elain. So to say that Lucien was fully supportive of Eris as the High Lord or Autumn was an understatement.
Gerod was too. Beron’s third son had always supported Eris. Finn and Isak on the other hand were wildcards. Finn had always hoped for the power to transfer to him and Isak was a spineless lackey of Finn. Lucien was wary of how they would react when the dust settled. At the end of that first day, though, everyone seemed to accept that Eris was the new High Lord. Swearing fealty would be the next order of business and Lucien knew he needed to get away before things got that far. So he found himself knocking on his brother’s suite of rooms, his palms sweaty.
Azriel opened the door. “Lucien.” he said simply.
Lucien nodded to him. “Azriel. I know there’s been a lot today, but is he available? Just for a few minutes?”
Azriel looked back over his shoulder and then nodded, standing to the side so Lucien could enter. Eris’ suite of rooms were so quintessential Autumn Court. The colors were orange, deep red, and deep gold on dark woods. There was dark green accenting things here and there, like you would see it in a forest during the height of autumn. Lucien wondered if Azriel would get any voice in the decor now that Beron and his predjudice was out of the picture.
“Thank you,” Eris said as he strode in from the bedchamber, his tunic untucked and open at the top. “I know you were in shock when I left Night.”
“She was my mother too,” Lucien said a little more harshly than he intended.
Eris nodded slowly. “But I think she’d told you . . . something . . .”
Lucien’s brows narrowed. “You know what she told me?”
“I think I do,” he admitted and looked to Azriel. “I think it’s why you let Gerod and I have the killing blow?”
“How do you know?” Lucien asked, not sure how to feel that Eris and Azriel apparently knew something he only learned that afternoon.
Eris gave him a sympathetic smile. “You forget, little brother, that I’ve been around much longer than you. And as much as you look like Mother, you lack the features of my sire.”
Lucien’s mouth opened and closed in surprise. “Does everyone know?”
“I doubt it,” Azriel put in. “I’ve known for awhile. Feyre and Rhys highly suspect, but that’s all that I know of.” If Azriel said that was the extent of the people who knew, it probably was. It was Azriel’s job to know things and know who else knew them.
Lucien sighed and ran a hand through his hair in frustration. “I don’t even know what to feel about this,” he confessed, surprising himself.
“You could feel relief,” Eris suggested. “You don’t have to live with the knowledge that your father murdered your mother.” That last bit sounded pained and bitter.
Azriel joined his mate and took Eris’ hand in his. Mates.
Elain. Lucien’s mate. He suddenly remembered her last words to him and the way she’d held him in the minutes after his mother’s death. “Elain . . .” he said softly.
“Is worried about you,” Azriel said confidently.
“But just this morning we were barely getting to know each other,” Lucien argued.
Azriel nodded. “But in my experience, Elain is a caretaker. I think she saw you in need and everything finally clicked into place for her.”
Eris smiled at Lucien. “You’re welcome to stay, of course, but I wouldn’t be offended if you wanted to get back to her.”
Lucien’s mind was racing. There was just so much to process! But he couldn’t deny that he was craving the closeness of his mate. He looked Eris in the eyes and nodded. “I will speak with Helion as soon as I can. I’ll make sure Day supports you if Finn and Isak get any rebellious ideas.”
“Thanks, Lucien,” Eris replied sincerely. “Hopefully they have senses of self-preservation and will know when they’re beat.”
Lucien nodded his agreement at that sentiment. “Any message for Rhys?” he asked Azriel.
Azriel shook his head. “I’ll report in mentally before the night is through.”
“Alright. Then I’m heading back to Night. She did say to come home to her,” and he allowed himself a hopeful grin.
“Then don’t keep the lady waiting!” Eris agreed with a broad smile of his own.
Lucien nodded and headed for the suite doors. As he made his way out of the Forest House, he found himself breaking into an excited jog. He wanted to get back to the Night Court as fast as he could winnow, but he had to get clear of the main grounds. As soon as he felt he was passed Eris’ wards, he winnowed to the front of the River House.
He was about to knock on the front door, hoping someone would be up, when Feyre spoke into his mind. C’mon in, Lucien. Elain’s reading in the sitting room. Waiting up for you. Lucien opened the door quietly, not sure if Nyx would be easily awakened by his entry, and hurried to the sitting room doors.
They opened before his hand could touch the latch. Elain was standing before him a little breathless, eyes wide and expectant. “You’re alright,” she breathed in relief.
Lucien nodded. “Perfectly fine,” he assured her. “You . . .”
“Came to my senses,” she finished with a slight blush to her cheeks. “I don’t know why it took me so long to see you, to really see you, but I did today.” She closed the distance between them and reached up to put her arms around his neck.
Lucien put his arms around her waist, relishing in the feel of her body close to his. He realized where they were and looked to the sofa where his mother had told him about her and Helion, where she’d taken her final breaths. It looked like nothing was amiss.
“Rhys is going to deliver her to the Autumn Court in the morning,” Elain explained, reading into his questioning expression. “You can go with him of course.”
Lucien nodded first and then shook his head. “I need to go somewhere else first,” he said and paused, unsure how to explain.
“Can you pause for food and sleep?” she asked, worry etching her face. She lifted her hand to his face and gently cupped the side, completely unphased by his metal eye.
“Yes,” he agreed. “I wasn’t really hungry at the Forest House, but maybe I should eat something.”
Elain smiled and let her hand fall, taking him by the hand. She led him to the kitchen and sat him down at the table. Neither of the wraiths were in sight, it was just the two of them. She pulled a roasting pan from the oven and set it on the stove top.
“Elain . . .” he said, starting to understand why she’d brought him there.
“I have it on good authority that you like a well roasted chicken,” she replied with a smile over her shoulder.
He blinked in surprise, unsure of whether he should stop her or not. “I do,” he agreed. “But . . .”
“I’ve never tried to make the carmelized brussel sprouts before,” she continued. “So maybe don’t try those first.” She continued to fix a plate for him. She brought it over, and he saw a juicy chicken breast, purple carrots, carmelized brussel sprouts, and a dinner roll on the plate. “I accept the bond,” and she placed it before him along with utensils and a napkin.
“Elain . . .” Lucien was speechless. He hadn’t been expecting this. He’d dreamt of this moment for years now, but he’d almost given up hope that it would ever happen. He certainly didn’t expect it to occur when he’d woken up that morning. Of course a lot of things had happened he hadn’t expected when he’d woken up that morning.
Slowly, almost like he was actually in a dream, he picked up the knife and fork and attempted to cut into the chicken. It fell apart easily and he brought a fokful to his mouth. Without taking his eyes from Elain’s, he took the bite, savored the perfectly seasoned meat, and swallowed.
Elain was beaming. “Is it good?” she asked hopefully.
He smiled back at her, surprised that she didn’t know. “It’s perfect,” he promised. “Get yourself a plate too.”
“Is that allowed?” she asked, clearly still uncertain about the rules of the occasion.
Lucien chuckled. “Yes,” he assured her. “And I will enjoy it all the more if you join me.”
She nodded and went to the cooler. “First, a little wine,” she said. “Rhys said this is a good vintage. I’m sorry to say that I’m not an expert on such things, even in the human world.” She produced two glasses and poured them each a portion of white wine that Lucien immediately knew was one of the better bottles from Rhys’ personal collection. He’d thank him for the generosity later.
“When we throw parties, I’ll take care of wine selection,” he assured her. “Several centuries as a courier had better make me good for something.”
Elain laughed lightly as she served herself a plate of roasted chicken and vegetables as well.
She sat down and Lucien raised his glass. Elain raised hers as well.
“To our future,” he said. “Because I am going to finish every last bite.”
Elain blushed a little but clinked her glass with his and they both sipped at the excellent wine.
As they ate, Lucien gave her a high-level account of the assault on the Forest House. She’d seen battle before, but she wasn’t a warrior like Nesta or Feyre. She wouldn’t have appreciated all the details. And that was perfectly fine with him. He hoped he’d be able to protect her so she’d never be exposed to that sort of ugliness ever again.
As promised, Lucien finished every ounce of food she’d served him. When he was finished, he reached over and took her hand. He brought it to his lips and kissed the back of it gently. “Thank you, Elain. I will spend the rest of my existence working to make you happy.”
“I will do the same,” she promised a little breathily. Then she bit her lip, gazing down at the table. “What happens now?”
Lucien released her hand to gently guide her chin back up. “Whatever you want,” he said gently, looking in her eyes. “We can say goodnight here if that makes you more comfortable.”
Her eyes were glistening. “I’m . . . Lucien, I . . .” she kept trying to speak and stopped herself in frustration. “Maybe you should tell me what to do?”
“Never,” Lucien said with a shake of his head. “I don’t get the impression that you have all that much experience in the physical aspects of love and courtship.”
Elain bit her lip and shook her head. “But I know I should . . .”
But Lucien cut her off. “There’s no should about these things, Elain,” he promised. “We’ll take things slow, physically, and I’m certainly not going to push you into anything tonight.”
Elain looked relieved. “I do love you, Lucien,” she insisted.
“I’m confident of that,” he replied with a loving smile. “So our forays into physical affection will be meaningful and extra special, but we don’t need to rush.” He couldn’t help giving her a roguish grin. “Because we’re mates, and I think that once we start, it may be very difficult to stop.”
“Oh,” she replied and blushed crimson. She stood quickly and cleared the table, taking the plates to the sink. “Ceridwen and Nuala said to leave the dishes. That they’d take care of them.”
Lucien got to his feet and went to the sink, sidling up behind her. He leaned down, placed a gentle kiss right by her ear, and felt her shiver. He could feel it was a happy shiver, though, and he smiled. “I have one other thing I need to tell you,” he said, gently turning her to face him.
“What’s that?” she asked, letting him wrap his arms around her waist.
“I’m not a son of the Autumn Court like I thought,” he said.
She looked at him in confusion.
“My mother, before . . . before . . .” he couldn’t say it. It was too fresh.
Elain nodded her understanding.
“She told me that I am Helion’s son,” he explained. “I belong to the Day Court.”
Elain was surprised. “That’s where you need to go. To the Day Court?”
Lucien nodded. “Helion doesn’t know. About my mother’s passing, about me, about any of it. I need to speak with him. Will you come with me tomorrow?”
Elain smiled lovingly up at him, her arms snaking around his neck. “Of course.”
“Thank you,” he said gratefully. “I think I can face it all if you’re by my side.”
“I will always be by your side. From here on out,” she promised.
Lucien took her by the hand and led her from the kitchen. When they reached the bottom of the stairs, Lucien gently guided her onto the first step and let go of her hand. “I’ll be back just after breakfast,” he assured her.
“You could come before breakfast,” Elain said urgently. “Feyre and Rhys won’t mind.”
Lucien chuckled. “Would you like me to have breakfast with you?”
Elain nodded, biting her lip and Lucien realized she was staring at his lips. She might not be ready to consummate their mating that evening, but she was certainly thirsty for some physical affection.
Lucien nodded slowly. “Then I’ll come by in time for breakfast. Elain . .”
“Hmm. . .?”
“May I kiss you goodnight?” he asked. He was pretty sure he knew the answer, but he wanted to make sure he didn’t misunderstand.
“Yes please,” she whispered.
Lucien gently took her chin between his thumb and forefinger and brought her closer to him. Ever so gently, he placed his lips on hers, trying to memorize everything about this first kiss. Her lips were softer than silk, supple and pliant, and although he wasn’t pushing it, she began to open them to him. He gently opened them wider with his tongue and found hers. She was a little timid and inexperienced, but as he coaxed her out, she gained a little confidence and returned his kiss in earnest. He felt her hand on his arm, giving his bicep a little squeeze, and he slid his own hand around to brace the back of her head. He could feel the mating bond driving him to get more from her so he pulled back gently.
“That was lovely!” she exclaimed quietly, as if she were surprised by it.
Lucien chuckled. “I’m glad.”
Elain wrapped him in a tight hug quickly and then released him with a smile. “Until tomorrow morning, then.”
“Until tomorrow morning,” he agreed with a nod.
She turned and headed up the winding staircase towards the River House’s residential wing. He watched her go until she was out of sight before turning and heading for the front door.
He had no idea how Helion was going to take the news that he was a father, albeit of a full-grown male. He was fairly certain the news of his mother’s passing was going to be devastating for the Day Court’s High Lord, though. Hopefully having Elain there would help. She was such a ray of sunshine, Lucien almost hoped Helion would acknowledge him as a son so that Elain could spend more time in the Day Court. It was almost like she was made for it.

The menu for the SID mid-autum festival feast is
puffy little pastries wrapped in paper that says “COUNTRY SCENERY”
a variety of individual cake slices
little egg tarts
plain donuts
fruit: dragonfruit, red and green grapes, peaches, oranges, and bananas
three plates of dumplings, brought in hot and fresh from Lao Li’s little kitchen
a bottle of sauce for the dumplings
two bottles of some whiskey-looking hard liquor
two bottles of red wine
two bottles of sparkling alcohol, one of which is ... blue
four carafes of what honestly looks like Gatorade, considering the questionable food dyes going on here
What I’m not seeing is ... mooncakes. Which, considering it’s the Mooncake Festival, seems like a strange thing to leave out, but okay, we do things different in Dragon City.
Unlike all the fake restaurant food, a whole lot of this spread is actually edible, as evidenced by how the actors are actually eating. I assume the slices of cake are fake, since nobody seems to be busting into those, and they are the first things I’d be going after. Then again, I don’t see forks, so maybe not. ...No, I’d use my hands, it’s cake.
What’s also very cute is what they’re eating. Da Qing spends most of the scene both munching on a peach and defiantly cramming dumplings in his mouth, just like a real cat would do if it could use chopsticks. Zhu Hong seems real into the pastries, especially the plain donuts (maybe they have meat inside). Chu Shuzhi keeps picking grapes off the bunch nearest to him and popping them into his mouth. Lin Jing is busting into one of those tarts, and at one point he picks a green grape and leans across the table to hand it to a slightly befuddled Zhu Hong. Guo Changcheng spends much time dithering emotionally, but when the chief finally orders them all to eat, he goes for one of the donuts too; there’s also a shot where he’s pouring the dumpling sauce as he shares a bowl of the dumplings with his Chu-ge. Lao Li does not seem to be eating anything, happy instead to watch everyone else chow down. And the ghosts are feeding one another dumplings and making everyone else sick with how cute that is (and also possibly with how you don’t want to think too long about how ghosts eat dumplings).
Meanwhile Shen Wei and Zhao Yunlan spend so much time flirting meanly at one another that they don’t get a chance to dig in, which is honestly what they both deserve.

the marauders as seasons
summary: three out of the four marauders as seasons ( + lily ).
this idea just popped into my mind one day and i had to write it down.
gif’s not mine. credit to the owner.
james is like summer.
he’s the happiness that is brought by the end of the semester and the beginning of vacations. he’s the heat of sunny days, the taste of cold lemonade and the feeling of water dripping down your skin after a day swimming in the lake. he’s the excitement of quidditch matches and the buzzing of bumblebees floating around. he’s the feeling of late night adventures and deep conversations under the stars. he’s the smell of one long barbecue and the feeling of friends always being nearby. he can sometimes be like drinking alcohol during summer parties, too; a feeling of intoxication and liberation at the same time. he’s the awe of traveling to new places, exploring and discovering, the sound of ocean waves, the smell of sun lotion, the feeling of skin being warm to the touch. but, above everything else, james potter is the memories that you create during this season; eternal.
remus is like autum.
he’s the tenderness of cool air brushing your skin but also the light sun preventing you from being cold. he’s the smell of parchment and ink, a scent of home. he’s the coziness of hoodies and scarfs, the feeling of hands affectionately holding each other for the first time. he’s the calmness of the environment and the ability to fall in love with nature once again. he’s the sound of leaves crunching under your feet, the foggy light that creates a mysterious sensation around the castle, the smell of pumpkin scented candles. he’s the bright moon on a clear night, the impression that everyone and everything seems to slow down. he’s the gentleness of the air and the picturesque sceneries. but he’s also the sadness of watching the whomping willow lose its leaves, a reminder that everything comes to an end. remus lupin is the sounds and smells and sights of autumn that stir the soul, a delight mixed with a twinge of melancholy.
sirius is like winter.
he’s the warmth of the fireplace, the delicious taste of hot chocolate with melting marshmallows and the peace of being tucked in bed with only a book for company. he’s the comfort of a hug, the sound of christmas songs, the feeling of a kiss under the mistletoe. he’s late night trips to hogsmeade, stealing sweets from honeyduke’s. with those he cares about he’s the sound of laughter, he’s the affection and kindness that is spread during the holiday dinners, he’s the beautiful shimmering of the decoration lights in the christmas tree. he’s the laughter during a snowball fight, the delighted screams of enjoyment after sliding down a mountain in a sled, the twinkling of joy in children’s eyes as they open their gifts in the early christmas morning. but sirius can also be reserved. he can also be the icy cold winds, those that are frigid and paint your cheeks a rosy pink. sirius black is like snow, both alluring and beautiful but also threatening if not handled carefully.
(bonus)
lily is like spring.
she’s the rays of sunshine in the morning, the scent of coffee beans and pumpkin juice for breakfast. she’s the tweeting of birds, the exhilaration of watching flowers bloom again. she’s the caress of the warm breeze during a stressful day, the gorgeousness of a clear blue sky. she’s the tranquility of having a picnic with your friends and watching the sunset, enjoying the way the sky turns from a baby orange to a light pink. she’s a boost of energy, the taste of raindrops and the felling of soaked clothes against your skin. she’s the awakening after months of cold weather, light and beautiful. lily evans is the glee of spring, an overflowing feeling of joy and companionship.
———
i tried so hard to write peter but i just couldn’t, i really dislike his character. so instead i added lily, because she’s totally spring.

The glow dream.
Hi guys,
As bold as it sounds I think I have a new favourite revolution eyeshadow palette. Shocking I know but this palette is such a game changer.
Let me introduce you to the new Glow palette, £20 (reduced to £6 when I got it). This palette is from their glow collection where they were very hyped on all this gold and glowy (I mean the name gives it away doesn’t it) but as you know in every range they have a gorgeous palette. I’m obsessed with gold toned eyeshadows because I have blue eyes and these shades really make my lids pop! Now this palette gives you everything it gives you mattes, shimmers and glitters and while it’s a gold themed palette it still has some deeper shades to balance it out.
When I look at this palette it gives me such autumn vibes with the golds, reds and pops of colour in the colour story. While I obviously love all revolution palettes this palette is like my dream combo of colours. When this palette first came out it was one of the first bigger palettes revolution released and honestly for the range of colour in this palette I’m glad it was a bigger size. The matte shades in this palette are beautiful mainly focussing on Nude shades with pops of colour (like the blue). As always the shades blend beautifully together and looking at this palette there’s so many looks you can make.
While this collection was released during the summer I would personally use these shades more in the autumn. Mainly to add a warmth of glitter but between the golds, oranges and burgundy shades you can do such a autum look. In the pic I posted I made a gold toned look paired with liner and I loved how it turned out. It would be easier to make that deeper in tone by adding matte brown to the outer crease.
If you want to check out this palette and others like it head over to revolutionbeauty.com
Lots of love

Happy Mabon Witches!
We made it, the fall equinox. The first day of fall! If you're like me and completely lost all sense of time and realized today was a witches wheel holiday (oops), you still want to celebrate. But this celebration will be hella low-key and... well... basic. Yes i said it. Basic.
What is Mabon?
Mabon is the second harvest festival and when harvest especially, where I live within the world, really ramps up. Mabon is also considered the Witches Thanksgiving. Cause whats better than giving thanks for the harvest during, ya know actual harvest. Different cultures celebrate in their own way. The germans have Oktober fest, the ancient Greeks celebrated by harevsting grapes for wine. Even currently the Chinese celebrate with Mid-Autum festival to give thanks for their families.
Last minute celebration ideas
So now we know a little of why we are celebrating, let's find out how to celebrate the procrastination way.
Decorate for fall, in fall colors like oranges, reds, browns, golds, and yellows.
Go pick some sunflowers or marigolds.
Find an acorn outside (it might be too early for this depending on where you are).
Make some tea! You can stick with teas that have a correspondence with Mabon like sage, myrh, or rosehip. I personally am going more calming with camomile today.
Burn some sage, because, sage.
Clean up, or declutter.
Light a candle.
As you can tell, we are going basic this year. Basic for me because I am a procrastinator. Basic for others because not everyone has the option to go all out this year. It might be a loss of income, or feeling trapped in their situation because of quarantine.
Whatever your situation, have a Happy Mabon and Blessed Be.

Thanks to @annabelle-tanaka-official for the tag
MORGABY
A: Attractive (What do they find attractive about the other?)
Barnaby finds Morgana’s patience and compassion extremely compelling, the way she listens to you without ever interrupt you, taking in account everything you say, and always gives you good advice. The way she loves to learn and teach, she will listen and talk about everything. He also loves her laugh. Physically he finds her really pretty, but the thing he likes the most is that how she’s apparently always blushing.
Morgana loves the way she can really feel like a teenager without responsibilities with him, do things that are simply fun, that he’s the funniest person she knows. But also, that he yearns to improve, he wants to be better and really work for it. Physically she can’t help herself; she likes how strong he is.
Both love feeling like they really understand each other.
B: Baby (Do they want a family? Why/Why not?)
They were extremely excited about the prospect of having a big (probably beautiful given their genes) family. But that idea quickly got shut down after having their first and only child after some horrible things happened during the war Morgana was unable to have more children. They thought it was probably for the best, since the first pregnancy was very traumatic and Morgana was busy after the war, but it was one of the saddest things that happened during their adulthood.
C: Cuddle (How do they cuddle?)
Morgana is really private, to the point that no one saw them kiss on the lips until their wedding, but everyone notices they get attracted to one another like magnets whenever they’re in the same room together, they stand as close as possible to each other and maybe Morgana holds his arm. If Morgana is incredibly stressed maybe they would see Barnaby give her a little shoulder massage, or the other way around.
D: Dates (What are dates with them?)
They usually go to the farmers market or going antique shopping, because they’re like a boring old married couple, but they have fun. They just enjoy each other’s company, going on walks together, going to the zoo…no matter how soft and boring it sounds, they just like it. They also go to all the fairs that they can so Barnaby can win her as much plushies as humanly possible.
E: Everything (You are my ____ (e.g. my life, my world…))
Both agree: You are my future.
F: Feelings (When did they know they were in love?)
Damien told Barnaby he was obviously in love with Morgana, since he always talked about her with such care and love. He was very confused until he heard Morgana tell two judgemental Ravenclaws (that asked her what did she like of being friends with Barnaby if she couldn’t engage intellectually) that they’ve obviously never talked with Barnaby about something he was genuinely interested in, and she didn’t partake of the kind of intellectual dishonesty of believing you’re superior to others.
Morgana isn’t actually sure when it happened, it was slow, gentle and imperceptible, she just one day knew she would do anything if it meant Barnaby could be happy. She just knew at the begginig of Year 4 and she’s been smitten ever since.
G: Gentle (Are they gentle? If so, how?)
Very much so. It’s more noticeable with the affectionate way they touch and stroke each other’s faces. But Morgana also softly grips on his clothes or take his arm, so she won’t lose him. Barnaby is more forward he kisses her face a lot and puts their foreheads together so they can look into each other’s eyes.
H: Hands (How do they like to hold hands?)
Intertwining their fingers.
I: Impression (What was their first impression?)
Morgana thought he was really funny, and Barnaby though she was really sweet.
J: Jealousy (Do they get jealous?)
No.
K: Kiss (How do they kiss? Who initiated the first kiss?)
Morgana initiated the first Kiss because Barnaby gave her all the time, she needed to overcome her shyness a little. Their kisses are…private.
L: Love (Who’s says ‘I love you’ first?)
Barnaby.
M: Memory (What’s their favourite memory together?)
Kissing for the first time, because they tried for six months and they had a really deep and meaningful conversation before it happened.
N: Nickle (Do they spoil one another? Do they buy the person they love everything?)
They’re more of an arts and crafts, doing something from the heart kind of couple.
O: Orange (What colour reminds them of their other half?)
For Morgana is autum colors or blue, for Barnaby is jade.
P: Pet names (What pet names do they use?)
Very classical, like the old married couple that they are: my love, dear, darling…
Q: Quaint (What is their favourite non-modern thing?)
Morgana: China tea sets.
Barnaby: Postcards.
R: Rainy day (What do they like to do on a rainy day?)
They go to the field or the countryside to see all the creatures that only go outside when it rains. And after they curl up together on the coach with a blanket, so Morgana can read them a book.
S: Sad (How do they cheer each other up?)
They understand each other very well, so mostly they hug tightly and talk openly about their problems, try to give each other good advice. Morgana also brings him to see puffskins, nifflers…cute things that would make Barnaby happy. And Barnaby makes her tea and sweets.
T: Talking (What do they talk about?)
Whatever comes to mind, which leads to the weirdest topics sometimes.
U: Unencumbered (What helps them relax?)
A good cup of tea and a book for Morgana, petting various cute creatures for Barnaby.
V: Vaunt (What do they like to show off? What are they proud of?
Barnaby likes to show off his muscles and how many things he can win for Morgana on fairs, he’s really proud of how strong he is. Morgana likes to show of her knowledge of various topics and her ingenuity to think of spells (and sometimes cute dresses), she’s really proud of her planning skills.
W: Wedding (When, how, where do they propose?)
Barnaby planned (with the help of Andre and Mercy, avid Morgaby shippers) a really cute proposal where he would take her to the place where they had their first date and give the staff a cup of tea where ‘Will you marry me’ was written at the bottom. Anyway, everything went wrong, he even made it sound like he was breaking up with her and forgot the ring.
So when his intentions were clear enough, Morgana proposed instead.
They married in 1999 in their own house, their wedding was garden/tea/antique themed.
X: Xylophone (What’s their song?)
You matter to me from Waitress.
Y: Yes (Do they ever think of getting married/proposing?)
Yes, especially after having their child.
Z: Zebra (If they wanted a pet, what would they get?)
After moving in together they have a cat, a dog, a niffler, a thestral and Barnaby Junior still lives with them.
For Damien and Ben
For Mercy, Penny, Talbott, Badeea and Diego.
For Emily and Merula

the queen of nothing book cover!
ok so apparently we just got blessed (or cursed) with the queen of nothing book cover and there’s so much going on so just wanted to gather my thoughts:
first of all: I DONT KNOW HOW TO FEEL about it! when I first saw it on instagram i sent it to @daddycardan thinking it might be fanart. then i checked amazon and saw it there so im thinking it’s legit (plus the font and everything would be way too hard to fake)
second: it’s so different from the other covers in the way that it has many colors, it has a wholeass reptile in it , has sooo many clues , and well the CROWN IS BROKEN. so here’s some clues or observations:
- the crown is fucking b r o k e n. I remember reading that it could only be broken when less than 2 members of the bloodline are alive (it’s also written on the wiki). so i just want to put it out that NEITHER MY BABY CARDAN OR OAK HAS PERMISSION TO DIE IN THIS BOOK.
- concering the above , i have a theory so beware if you’re avoiding them: maybe cardan and jude will die at the end together? it’s such a sad thought but think about it. they both are the faerie crown. the faerie crown is not only broken in 2 (representing both cardan and jude separately) , but also buried. this might signify that the crown (jurdan) will be buried underground aka dead.
-i’m really curious to know how the ice setting will come into play. it’ll might be winter in the mortal realm, and was maybe wondering if there’s anyway cardan could bring winter into faerie? afterall he’s the ruler of the land (wild thought: so is jude) so he could basically control the weather. maybe in jude’s absence the weather will reflect his feelings. winter usually having connotations of melancholy and sadness.
-my intial thought at the flowers on the bottom was that they were rowan berries. hear me out: rowan berries are red and have green leaves, buuuut during winter the leaves fall (or if it’s autum then they turn redish orange like in the cover) and the berries actually stay intact tho some are frozen over like in the picture.
- the snake is what has me completely baffled. i knew it symbolized some stuff and this is what i could find that possibly relates to the story:
“Historically, serpents and snakes represent fertility or a creative life force. As snakes shed their skin through sloughing, they are symbols of rebirth, transformation, immortality, and healing.” -wikipedia
this could mean that there’s possibly a child being born (taryn and locke or jurdan unrealistic tho). the immortality, transformation, and healing had me more intrigued because it could mean so many things i could make a whole post abt this.
however snakes are also know for vengefullness and vindictiveness:
“Following Christian tradition, serpents are connected with lies, vengefulness and vindictiveness...
This connection also depends in part on the experience that venomous snakes often deliver deadly defensive bites without giving prior notice or warning to their unwitting victims. Although a snake is defending itself from the encroachment of its victim into the snake's immediate vicinity, the unannounced and deadly strike may seem unduly vengeful when measured against the unwitting victim's perceived lack of blameworthiness.”
soo i’ll leave it at that because the last pretty obvious who it could be about. sorry that this is so long and damn i have so many more ideas and interpretations of this cover but this would be way too long. please tell me about what you think and if there’s anything u agree/disagree on because i’d love to see other ideas.
watch this be a fake cover lmao (pls dont be)
#tcp#twk#tqon#qon#the queen of nothing#queen of nothing#qon book cover#the cruel prince#the wicked king#jurdan#jude and cardan#jude duarte#cardan greenbriar#holly black

Annotated edition, Week in Ethereum News, April 13 issue
The newsletter didn’t get sent until Monday morning, so a bit late for me. The reason why is that last week I was busy securing the 4 major sponsors necessary to keep this newsletter free for everyone. Hopefully news on that front will be coming soon. I’ll be very grateful to the folks who help Week in Ethereum News stay free, and hopefully you will be too. As I’ve told everyone I talked to, as an editor, the product will remain the exact same. As a publisher, it’s very important to me that it’s a productive relationship for everyone.
Here’s the most clicked, preserved in a screenshot since my tweets auto-delete
People are excited that the fee market is getting simulated. This particular piece is probably a bit too simplistic, but Barnabe will be publishing more soon, with more realistic assumptions about endogenous demand.
People are excited because the fee market change will 1) make it easier for app devs to get their user transactions included and 2) because every transaction will burn some ETH, and 3) it kills economic abstraction forever, something I remember Gavin pushing quite hard in 2015 and 2016.
Meanwhile, Danny published a design on turning off PoW. Even though it’s long, it’s still rough and just an initial plan. The focus has been on launching the eth2 chain, but as soon as it is launched, the goal is to turn off the wasteful electricity burn (and issuance!) of PoW.
Eth1
EIP1559 fee market change simulations, assuming demand is exogenous
EVM Bytecode Merklization – merklize code chunks for block witnesses, estimates 40-60% reduction
Some more estimates on code merklization based on recent blocks
One important bit of stateless Ethereum is trying to merklize code chunks to shrink the witness size so that full nodes do not have to hold the full state. Two different estimates published this week on how important and feasible it is.
Eth2
Bitfly’s explanations of eth2 block explorer charts
PegaSys’s Teku client fully syncs with the Lighthouse testnet
Latest Nimbus client update. Getting up to the multi-client testnet spec, networking improvements, interop ready with Lighthouse
SigmaPrime’s update fuzzing the eth2 clients. Catching bugs, new fuzzing engine
Work on formally verifying the eth2 spec using Dafny
A look at the GUI for Rocketpool’s decentralized staking pool
Aditya’s how FFG is implemented in Eth2 explainer
The clients are all speeding into launching the multi-client testnet. I suppose the other stuff mostly speaks for itself.
Eth2, post-BeaconChain launch
A design for merging eth1 and eth2 clients to turn off PoW
Better attestation aggregation algos
Verifiable precompiled contracts
An approach for cross-shard transfers at EE level
Perhaps people forget that when Ethereum launched in July 2015, it didn’t actually do anything. It’ll be the same with Eth2, so on the research front things shifted awhile ago towards all the things necessary to make eth2 work.
Stuff for developers
Solidity v0.6.6 and v0.6.5 – ‘immutable’ new major feature, tuple assignment bugfix, and memory array creation overflow bugfix
Truffle v5.1.21 adds Solidity’s immutable
wighawag’s Buidler Deployment Plugin
Not new, but a comparison of ethers.js and web3js
Example of using web3modal (former web3connect) with vanilla Javascript
MelonJS v1 to interact with Melon’s deployed code
Tool for decoding Ethereum storage
Arrays and maps in Solidity
Yul+ Remix plugin
Chainlink redeployed ETHUSD contract; 2 weeks to migrate from old code
Maintaining offchain NFT data using IPFS
SQL queries on DuneAnalytics tutorial
Django with web3py tutorial
Lots of devs excited about immutable.
One problem Ethereum has is that everyone prefers RicMoo’s ethers.js yet most people still use web3js because the tutorials push new devs to it.
Ecosystem
discv5: an explainer of Eth networking’s peer discovery protocol
Eth brand survey
I really appreciate Dean’s networking explainers, I find them quite well-written, and it makes me a little mad that he’s a high school dropout who writes better than I do.
Enterprise
from the founder of Simple, Sila: payments API to take on ACH
EEA mainnet survey
Hyperledger Besu v1.4.3 – adds eth/65 for better networking, issue found for private transactions created with v1.3.4 and before
Besu now running eth/65 too, which as we found out a few weeks ago, cuts bandwidth usage by a crazy amount. A nice change from Péter Szilágyi.
Governance, DAOs, and standards
MakerDAO’s 13 improvement proposals to decentralize governance
TheLAO launches April 28
how to create a bankless DAO
EIP2593: Escalator algo fee market change
This week a lawsuit was filed against Maker. Personally I think if you’re running to the US courts to bail you out (or assisting that effort) of your use of leverage, then you deserve all the opprobrium that you get.
Application layer
Reddit is rolling out the tokenization of it its karma for more than just r/EthTrader?
Status v1.2, adds Waku to replace Whisper for better messaging
SmokeSignal.eth, post by burning Dai interface prioritizes higher burn
Autumated dollar cost averaging of your stablecoins on Uniswap
Suggestions and programs in Colony
Overview of DxDAO’s Omen prediction markets
Inspect, DeFi transparency registry
Fairmint’s continuous securities offering is live on mainnet
The Reddit thing seems like an unintentional leak, where they were trying to roll it out to just one more community but it got in the app, and now they’re unsure what to do it. But they’ve been playing with this for years - I believe a job listing first surfaced for a dev to play with this stuff in late 2016 (may have been early 2017)
My weekly DeFi ratio: i’ll call it 3/8 to be DeFi, which is lower than normal. On the other, the BTC++ could have very easily been in this section (it’s all a bit arbitrary, no?) as well as the 10 Dai use cases post, etc... which would have changed it quite a bit.
Tokens/Business/Regulation
PieDAO’s BTC++ is live on mainnet, a token of comprised of multiple versions of locked/synthetic BTC
Is tokenized BTC on Ethereum good for ETH?
Top 10 use cases of Dai
NFTScribe – attach a message onchain to an NFT while you own it
a16zcrypto: crypto’s biz model isn’t that different but who benefits is
Jesse Walden’s article is now the #2 most clicked - by the time I do the #MostClicked, it’s usually pretty steady, but this time it moved up quite a bit in the subsequent 24 hours.
Betteridge’s Law of Headlines suggests the answer is no, but of course the answer is actually yes. People using ETH is a good thing, even if it is to speculate on the price of unsustainable memecoins. It’s impressive how many people are finding different ways to bring the orange memecoin into ETH, using different trust assumptions on BTC side or different use cases.
Case in point: Atomic Loans did a big push yesterday, where you can lock up BTC and get stablecoins. Pretty juicy rate to lend at - 9% for USDC and 9.5% for Dai.
General
Chicago DeFi Alliance formed to connect market makers and DeFi startups
CryptoHack: online puzzles to learn cryptography
UTokyo paper on digital courts
You can join the trusted setup ceremony for Semaphore, a zk privacy layer for apps
The CryptoHack site moved up and would have made the most clicked. Not a shocker that this audience wants to learn more crypto. Even app devs probably need to learn that the best architecture often involves more crypto and less state storage.
If you haven’t done a trusted setup ceremony, I highly recommend doing one. Contribute your entropy to the future! Semaphore is very neat gadget to help app developers be able to add privacy, which is a very needed layer to prevent dystopia.
