Catastrophe (solution)

The metapuzzle page asks

… what are the most repe-ti-ti-ve parts of the answers to each of these puzzles?

The answers to the round puzzles are

  • BINDING
  • VERVE
  • ELECTRICAL CONDUCTANCE
  • FURTIVE ARCHIVING
  • METER

Each of these answers has a repeated substring within the answer (always two letters, except for the last one, where it’s just a single letter).

The repeated strings are IN, VE, CT, IV, and E. Together these spell INVECTIVE.
