Puzzle 31 - 13x13 themed

This puzzle's got a theme - but no title, because I couldn't think of one. Also the theme doesn't ... quite work. Two theme clues are good, one's a little off. But that's OK! It's all parsable-ish. Maybe a little figurative, is all.

Filling and cluing the puzzle, I was happy to find three places that could echo answers/clues - but that was mostly unintentional. I used a tightish grid because the theme answers were relatively short. Also this puzzle should be easier than my smaller themelesses - but figuring out the theme could take some thinking.
