    PARSING:
    1D: Definition is “monarch”, KING is found in snakesKIN Gloves
    2D: Definition is “pasta”, MACARONI is an anagram of endless (last letter removed) RAIN (RAI), and MAC ON
    3A: Definition is “headgear component”, CHINSTRAP = CHINS (Protruding part of faces) + TRAP (ensnare)
    4A: Definition is “Pacific islands”, GALAPAGOS is an anagram of GAPS mixed with A GOAL this one was hard to make 😭
    5D: Definition is “name” which is also part of the wordplay (hence a “?”). To make ADELIE, “I” is inserted (a self-insert) into the name of the person who sang “Hello”, which is ADELE
    6A: Definition is “ruler”. EMPEROR is split into Electromagnetic (abbreviated to EM), for each (PER), and alternative (OR)
    7A: Definition is “immature”, every second letter of “all is total” gives “LITTL” and adding the end of the word “lie” gives LITTLE
    8A: Hopefully the theme became apparent, but every clue describes a species of PENGUIN!!
    thanks for playing :)
