Constructor's Note
There is one square that requires the rebus function. NOTE: the is an error…the third to last and second to last squares of 21a should also be highlighted (but them not being so is also kinda perfect for the theme)
Made with love and a little parkmad

    Thank you! I think the “CE” at bottom right should also be shaded. (Still not fully grasping the theme/mechanism but maybe I will see it soon… but nudges appreciated!)

      Awesome! And I can’t believe I missed that! Theme nudge: put the first and last across together with the rebus square in the middle in between them …lol that I say that, missing that two highlighted squares kinda works, lol

        Thank you! Yes, that’s funny. (Reminded me of some of these.)

        So italic letters mean something you have to mess up the word in order to solve it? Did not know where that was mentioned.
