  Woo, one-word clue! I got caught on "leave", even though it didn't quite fit "fire", but that's wonderful. Love your work.

    I've been wanting to discover a good one-worder for ages! Glad you enjoyed it :)

  Can you let me in on 1a?

    Of course! 'Proposition' is our definition. If we ask Roxie to 'strip' then we'd remove the outer layer, leaving OXI, which then 'dances' to become XIO.

    'The morning' might be AM, which XIO is then 'in'.
