    WOW, what a puzzle. i absolutely love the theme--brilliant work! amazing grid shape as well, the three (!!!) bonus answers couldn't have been easy to fill.
    however, i feel like even just the small "begin" was really big. the big text was too big it broke on my screen, even with zooming out--maybe the small clue could be [ᵇᵉᵍᶦⁿ], the medium clue is [Glad], and then the big clue is the size of what the small clue currently is? i think that would still preserve the silliness of the multi-line clue.

      I did consider that combo of tiny text, normal text, multi-line text, but wasn't happy with how "medium" would look, and figured multi-line for everything would be more fun (or break everyone's screens equally 😅). I'll see if there's similar feedback and update if so. Thanks for solving!

        it certainly made solving more chaotic--genuinely laughed when i saw the clues haha

      Like others have said, the formatting of your incredibly clever theme clues don't show up consistently from device to device, which is a UI issue more than it is any fault of your own, but given the respectable challenge of the puzzle, it definitely altered the experience. Looking forward to solving more of your work!
