The following set has exactly 12 members, each a 3-letter word, arranged alphabetically.

There are many other words which could take the place of "Box", for example, provided such a word possesses the same necessary properties as "Box". This is true for each of the 12 members.

{Box, Fox, Get, Hat, Jet, Mat, Not, Rot, Tot, Urn, ___, ___}

There are many solutions which can correctly fill in the last two places. But, only one of the following correctly does so.

A. Veg, You

B. Wan, Yet

C. Wax, Zoo

D. Xis, Yaw

E. Yet, Zen

Note: one property possessed by each word is that it is a valid 3-letter English word, but this type of property is not the key to the solution.

Please provide your own two-word solution.

You're in the right region, but wrong direction.
