@GarethMcCaughan a LEASH is a threesome ( merriam-webster.com/dictionary/leash ; and a THREE is also a threesome, merriam-webster.com/dictionary/three ) and a stringed instrument (for restraining a dog)

Q: What can you swallow while it swallows you?

RiddlerOfAgesA gruesome riddle: What can you swallow while it swallows you? What is the answer?

^ What do people think - too similar to the one I linked to in comments and thus should be closed? Trying not to overuse my recently acquired badge-hammer so soon (although the recent glut of riddles on site is a big test!).
Kinda think I ought to wait 'til the OP remarks on the comment, just in case there's a different answer in mind (though I suspect they're identical)

Q: I'm inside your house and always have been

Prim3numbahI'm inside your house and always have been. In the day i'm usually perpendicular to you but in the night parallel to you. You rarely think about me but use me daily - you even have to! I'm five letters long. Who Am I?

Q: Adjusting wrongly assembled Rubik's Cube

gaout5I bought a new Rubik's Cube and was able to solve it with some tutorials. However, I made a wrong movement, so that one piece came out. I think, I put it wrong together, because I'm not able to solve the cube anymore. When I try to solve my cube online, I get the following error: This configurat...

@msh210 LEASH to mean a threesome is new to me! I think "stringed instrument" -> LEASH is a bit too loose; at any rate it isn't what I had in mind. If the consensus here is that it's a good enough def then I'll happily concede that you found a good enough solution and let you set the next one; or y'all can keep trying to figure out the answer I actually have in mind :-).

Q: Is there a known cipher that accepts a non-alphanumeric Unicode key?

Aaron LiuI would like to know a cipher that can encrypt and decrypt using a Unicode key that is not alphanumeric (e.g. Ⓡ). It should be preferably relatively well-known, but if there aren't any well-known ones, I can take a minor one.

Q: I am everywhere

DrDI am a word. A single vowel word. Add a consonant up front: I become deadly Add a consonant inside: I become a very big place Replace the end consonant: I become a living thing Replace the front consonant: I become powerful Turn me around: I become-kind of-wet. Can you guess this word?

 
@GarethMcCaughan Even if it's good enough, we can wait until someone figures out the intended solution
(and then he or she will go next, natch)

I'm wondering if the C4 is CIGAR or SCALE? I don't know enough about music/bioinformatics to explain though
Cigar box guitar/CIGAR string or 3-notes-per-string on a guitar/weighing scale
