Why does a Curious Raccoon (SQHX) suddenly go cold halfway through?

Because the moment the curiosity is satisfied, the mind leaves the room first. It's not rejection; it's the signal for 'I've seen the result'. SQHX can't tell interest from desire themselves, so asking how it felt afterward helps them sort it out too.

They only make suggestions and never act on them.

That's the basic SQHX form. They suggest, but leave the decision and the doing to you. Say 'go on then, you do it' and they usually freeze. 'Okay, together' is the right answer.

Which type is the worst fit for SQHX?

The Moody Cat (SETC). The Cat won't start until the mood arrives and then lasts until morning; the Raccoon wants to try it tonight and be done quickly. Both surrender, so there's no starting point, and the lengths don't match either.

「If it's interesting, you want to touch it」

You never take the lead, but your curiosity runs wild. While being carried along, you're the one making the most suggestions.

Three lines

Three lines that probably land

Strength
You never lead, and yet your curiosity is what makes the night rich.
Weakness
The moment your curiosity is satisfied, you leave the room emotionally.
What you haven't admitted
You suggest things because you don't know what you want.

The read

The full read

1You don't take control. But you don't stay quiet either. 'What's that like?' 'I want to try that too.' You leave the decisions to them and just keep depositing ideas. Which means somehow the menu for the night is being written by you.

If you could ask one thing of them
It's not that I get bored. I just want to know all of it.

2You can't wait. Once it's in your head you want it tonight. Rather than a slow climb you'd rather open the box and find out. A night, to you, is a room full of things you'd like to unwrap.

3The risk is that you can't tell curiosity apart from desire. Whether you want to try it or actually want to feel it — you're not sure yourself. So you go cold halfway sometimes, and they read that as rejection. Everything changes for you the day you can say honestly how it actually felt.

Four axes

Read it through the four axes

Each of the four letters in the code is a lean on one axis. Here's how they come out for this type.

SControl · Surrender
You leave the decisions to them. But you don't stay quiet. 'What happens if we...' ideas keep getting dropped, and somehow the Raccoon ends up writing the night's menu.
QTempo · Quick
If you thought of it, you want it tonight. Rather than savour anything slowly, you open one box after another to see what's inside.
HRegister · Heat
The line between curiosity and desire is thin. 'I want to try it' rises at the same time as 'I want to feel good'. Once satisfied, you get sleepy very suddenly.
XAdventure · Explore
No resistance to new things. The same thing repeated is the most boring thing there is, so you want to try something every time.

Things this type tends to say

「Hey, what happens if we do this?」
「We did that before, didn't we?」
「...oh, I'm getting sleepy.」

Neighbours

One letter away: how the neighbours differ

These are the types that match on three axes and flip on one. Read them and you'll see which axis actually decided your result.

Only the Control axis is flipped
LQHXRestless Mantis
The Mantis executes an idea the moment it has one; the Raccoon asks the other person. 'I tried it' is the Mantis; 'I want to try it' is the Raccoon.
Only the Tempo axis is flipped
SEHXDrifting Jellyfish
The Jellyfish sinks slowly over a long time and almost never refuses a suggestion. The Raccoon makes the suggestions itself and wants quick results. Both never refuse: the Jellyfish for the sake of depth, the Raccoon for the sake of curiosity.
Only the Register axis is flipped
SQTXReckless Moth
The Moth is drawn to dangerous lights and wants a forecast of pain. The Raccoon is drawn to what's interesting, not what's dangerous. The Moth's nights have regret mixed in; the Raccoon's don't.
Only the Adventure axis is flipped
SQHCHonest Rabbit
The Rabbit wants no novelty, only heat that reliably arrives. The Raccoon wants novelty more than heat. The Rabbit's 'hurry' becomes 'I want to try this' in the Raccoon.

Compatibility

Compatibility isn't a single score. "How much it burns tonight" and "whether it lasts" are measured separately, so you see not only your best match but the one that burns brightest and never lasts.

Best match

LQHXRestless Mantis

Overall 100

The Mantis moves on an idea; the Raccoon asks about one. The Raccoon says 'what happens if?' and the Mantis answers 'let's find out' on the spot. Same speed, same appetite for the new, same heat. Both burn and staying power hit their maximum. Only two pairings in the sixteen do that.

Burns, but doesn't last

LEHXTeasing Spider

Overall 82

When the Raccoon's curiosity rides the Spider's design, the first night burns intensely. But the Spider makes you wait, and the Raccoon can't. After a few rounds of 'too early', the Raccoon starts thinking about something else, and the Spider's blueprint gets closed before it's finished.
