PAROXYSM – MUSIQUE. 3rd and 4th word found respectively.
Miss Irim and Kanishk-boy, come on over here. I’m excited to see your solutions.
YAY, RF!!! So good to see you rocking it.
Found PAROXYSM immediately, saw MUSIQUE, but something niggled about efficiency, then laughed as I saw EQUIP.
So, both, really, but the answer I put in was the efficient one: EQUIP-PAROXYSM for a 13/2. C’mon, Kanishk, hon, I know you’ve got this! Can’t wait to see you here.
Fingers crossed for a triumphant triumvirate and good luck, everyone – happy Thursday!
Well done, RF and Irim! Here’s to another collective triumph – EQUIP – PAROXYSM (OA) in five minutes. Came up with PAROXYSMS – SEQUOIA initially, but wanted a more efficient solution – so tried to connect P and saw EQUIP.
Well done, both!
I LOVE that we both saw something else first, then went, ‘Nah, looking for the 13/2’ *grins*
Hope all is well, hon – how are you both doing, my lovelies?
Yehey! 🎉🎊🥳

I live in a redwood forest. Saw SEQUOIA immediately…

OA here, but I really don’t get why going for the arcane esoterica seems to have become the goal of the puzzles.
Had already seen Equip and Musique when I saw Paroxysm, so I’ll take credit for two answers today. Thankfully in the medical world Paroxysm isn’t that esoteric. Way more in my wheelhouse than Junglefowl anyway. Pyrexia was also in there but I couldn’t find a pair for that.
PAROXYSM-SEQUOIA
Oops, forgot the S

Another for MARQUISE – EPOXY. Epoxy seems like one of the old reliables.
