Chemistry measures how much is engaged between two charts — not how easy it is. A high score can mean friction.

The Steel Monkey sees an equal — someone working from the same material. So does The Steel Rat, looking back. A symmetrical reading is rarer than it sounds, and it means the two of you are likely to describe the relationship in the same words — which makes disagreements about it unusually easy to resolve, and misreadings unusually hard to catch.
Monkey and Rat belong to the same three-branch alliance. Apart, neither of you completes it; together you hold two thirds of it. Something becomes available in this pairing that is not available to either of you alone — and it stays latent until you are actually in the same room.
The Steel Rat brings Water, which The Steel Monkey's carries none of. The exchange runs one way. That is workable, and it is worth both of you knowing which direction it runs in.
Neither day pillar carries Wood, Fire, and Earth. A shared absence is harder to work with than a mismatch, because there is nobody in the pairing to notice it: these are qualities the two of you will consistently underrate in each other and in yourselves.
