8x5x5

Meta Prompt
Alright SporcleMirror and Sommersmith. I see your double, quadruple, and quintuple minis. But what about … an octuple mini‽ That's the most minis you can fit in a midi! Or is it? This 11x11 crossword is actually many 5x5 crosswords all overlapping. It's tricky to indicate with just one colour for shading cells (paging Mike), but there's one mini in each corner, and one in the middle of each edge. Clues for overlapping entries in a row/column are listed one after the other, separated by slashes (except for the entries in the central row and column). For example, the clue "Start / How seafood is shipped / Finish" might indicate BEGINICEASE (some answers comprise multiple words). The metas (there are two options) are words that describe this crossword. Good luck!

      It quickly jumped out to me that this could be extended to a NONUPLE (is that a word?) mini by placing an E in the middle black square. And then I kept looking all over the grid searching for the hidden meta answer. It felt like it would be insane to have 8 overlapping minis (all without any weird crossings) with the constraints of a typical meta.
      I know you didn’t but it feels like you STOLE the clue for STOLE from my latest crossword which uses the same “taking things literally” wording to clue THEFT.

        Oh heck. Definitely unintentional, but very thematic! I'll update the clue to something else :)

        I also right away noticed the "missed opportunity" in the center. It never occurred to me that it could be related to the meta because I am dumb.

        So cool!
