If 2 down is "reality" then 12 across "scampi" is incorrect (I'm trying to post a revise version, if I only had a moment to breathe!)

Edit: actually you're finishing it with a few more, so it doesn't matter if I do

The number of letters. And if it is two or more words the number of letters in each word, like blast furnace is 5,7
