Me: Hey Milo, do you think they'll notice what I did in the crossword? Milo: *meows* (Probably, but it will take them a little bit.) Me: Should I tell them ahead of time what to expect? Milo: *meows* (No, it's more fun to hint at shenanigans instead of making it obvious in the post.)

Me: But then how am I supposed to lure people into actually playing the puzzle? Milo: *meows* (Post a picture of me instead, cats are big on the internet.) Me: Okay, maybe that'll work.

Hi Everyone! Below is the puzzle, "Bit by Bit." It's a themeless puzzle, but aside from that, there's something just slightly different about it. Have fun!
