Often I don't "see" which type they are for months, and then one day it'll click.

In any case, I'm slowly broadening out and I'm seeing that there are some things in people's faces that don't change much with age, assuming that they aren't mental, starving, derelict or extremely obese.

IMO, your "voice", by which I mean the patterns in your speech, seems to be extremely LII. The main features are long sentence lengths, elaborate and lengthy paragraphs, a desire to be precise and correct, and a general coolness and an aversion to engaging in emotional or triggering behavior that I associate with LII's.

Contrast that with Capitalist Pig's succinct *farts* in chat, or his greeting to a new member which said "Whose sock puppet are you?" Right out of the door, the ILI's that I know are right in your face. The LII's are more circumspect.

But, that's just my impression. As I said, typing based on preferred functions is probably best, and as a Te user rather than a Ti-user, I'm not great at that.
Ok, then. My initial thought when you said that ILI's are right in your face was the introduction of L from death note. If you haven't seen it, after the detectives reveal their identities, he pretends to shoot them and says "BANG! If I were Kira [Killer] you would be dead by now, Mr. Soichiro Yagami". I'm pretty convinced he's ILI, and that example seems to highlight the ILI "speech nature", if I'm understanding correctly. I'm not really like that. Maybe if I get to know you better, I'd be more like that, but I'm much more distant from from the onset.
