Thank you, Nico!
With multi-chapter stories (as with TV series) I prefer to 'binge' because don't have the attention span or sufficient long-term memory to recall previous episodes or chapters from several days previously.
I don't usually have time to read multi-chapter stories all in one binge, but the intriguing title (INTP) of this story acted as bait to draw me in. Then by the middle of the first page, the author had me firmly hooked, and I read the whole story in one 'binge'. (Presumably, taking a break for lunch still counts as a single binge?! LOL)
Anyway, I enjoyed this story for many reasons, including the fact that I discovered that I, too, am INTP.
I won't go into any more detail because I don't want to give any spoilers.
Simply said: I highly recommend it!
Kit

Thank you for your generous comment, Kit.
I don't know whether or not "INTP" will appeal to most readers. But based on your remarks and some private feedback I received, it appears that "INTP" was interesting at least to some of us who share that type of personality.

Nico,
I am an INTJ (or as some who know me best have asserted, and INTJJJ) so I was immediately intrigued by your title. Loved the story and also 'binged read it'. I really liked how you dove into the characteristics of Josiah's personality type and how that manifested as he interacted with those around him--reallyu, really well done.
I sincerely hope you are diligently working on the sequal INTP + ESFJ. Inquiring minds want to know "ESFJ, INTP, how does that work"!
Toby

I apoligize for taking so long to respond, Toby. I've been working on a story that I hope will publish here around the middle of this month. Things just got out of hand and absorbed most of my attention for the past six weeks. I haven't even thought about checking this forum.
First, I appreciate your kind words about "INTP". I wasn't at all sure about the story as I was writing it, and whether the rather unusual Myers-Briggs hook would attract the interest of many readers. Fortunately, it did strike a chord with some people who have been thoughtful enough to let me know that it worked for them. It really is gratifying to know that people appreciate what I write. Thank you!
I'm not sure yet whether there will be an INTP + ESFJ sequel. My tendency is to tell a story, then move on. But I am kicking around the idea of having Jake return for his own story- maybe it's just me, but I think the poor guy deserves something for being such a good and selfless friend to Josiah and Ian- so maybe Josiah and Ian will return for a cameo, or something. I have some preliminary thoughts about Jake's story. But nothing is clear yet. Time will tell.
I do appreciate knowing that there is some interest in reading more about Josiah and his friends. If I think I can tell a quality story that continues some of the themes and characters of "INTP", I'll definitely consider it. I just need to find some inspiration.
Thanks again for sharing your thoughts about "INTP". It really is good to know that the story has been appreciated.
