This pair of puzzles was created for an hour-long speed-setting event on the Cracking the Cryptic Discord server. Creating such a pair in an hour was ambitious and I couldn't quite get the theme I wanted to work perfectly in the time, with my hand being forced to place a couple of extra givens outside of the theme. Nonetheless, I am very pleased with how these puzzles turned out given the constraints.
