Two Monkey/Scorpio together is a 95-100% mirror, two silver-tongued operators who would never lie, cheat, or steal, only embellish, streamline, and borrow. Both halves are short on self-control and long on cunning, and neither can abide a pushover, which is convenient, because each has met someone with a will as strong as their own. The match is thrilling. The danger is that two such crafty creatures can start running their schemes on each other.
Chemistry is dangerous and electric. Both Monkey/Scorpio halves bring a vibrant, slightly larcenous energy that demands an equal, and here each has finally found one who will not be charmed into surrender. The bedroom is a contest of wills in the best way. The risk is that the same wit that seduces can be used to manipulate, and aimed inward it corrodes trust fast.
Talk is quick, persuasive, and not always strictly true. Both halves embellish for sport, so two of you trading streamlined versions of events can drift a long way from the facts together. The fun is real. The hazard is that neither of you is sure which borrowed story to believe.
Friction comes from two schemers refusing to be the pushover. The canon promised clashes are almost guaranteed here, and when two Monkey/Scorpio dig in, each tries to out-maneuver the other rather than settle it straight. The way out is to drop the act and just say the plain thing.
What each Monkey/Scorpio needs from the other is one person they never run a con on. Keep the schemes pointed at the world, where the canon half-jokingly suggests a career in espionage, and keep the marriage honest. Two operators who trust each other completely are formidable. Two who keep testing each other are exhausting.
At 95-100%, this is one of the most exciting and high-wattage pairings the formula scores. Two Monkey/Scorpio can take on the world as a team. Just make a pact to never play each other.
