I love the "different? Sort of person" tonally. The word different and the question mark really communicate that the speaker is STRONGLY questioning their own description as if they are still trying to decide. Also the question mark after different makes the word go up in tonal pitch. To my ears, no other punctuation achieves this. The question mark also stops the phrase longer than other suggestions. It's not correct but certainly creates a different sound in my head and thus a difference in the speaker's presentation. I have a "test" posse of people that read my work and if they grasp my intent for the character, I use it. Just sayin! I Like It.
