Work got in the way of my solving, but I am on shore. Time for another 4 Pillars Old Fashioned, I believe!
Check out "The MOAT MEOW Mashup Pack" here. US$10 for 14 metas that don't always abide by the "rules" of the game: asymmetry, 2-letter words, uncrossed letters, who knows. And this time there's a mega-meta! :shock:

PS: If you want help with a meta, PM what you have so I can help without spoiling too much. I've received lots of help in the beginning and I love to pay it forward!

Well, I made this much more difficult than I should have, and as a result here I am on page 3! Funny, I walked away from it for a second to go check on a patient, and it came to me as soon as I did so.

Stay well all!

Done and done.

Grid: 10 min
Meta: 34 min :(

Should've had it earlier. Right idea, wrong execution.
If I'm around, I am willing to join the Muggle Zoom room at other times to lend a hand to those in need.

Ashore! So annoyed that I didn’t start it right at 4pm I would’ve been page 1! Won’t get that opportunity for a while!
