ILI assesses others’ attitudes towards herself from the manifestations of their emotions. Stormy, intrusive emotions irritate her and cause depression. In an extreme situation or when she feels concealed ill will, she is able to openly show her irritation with flare-ups and sharp demands. She is ironic and can flash with a sharp and witty remark. If she feels bad, she will respond with black humor.
