droopy - Story 35220 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The weight of the responsibilities of the day was pulling Daniel down. He sat at his desk, and felt as though he was swimming through molasses. A tap on the door startled him; it was his friend, Kevin.

“Hey! That time we saw that band? Awesome!” Kevin said, grinning.

Daniel focused on the memory, which was clouded and full of frustration. He remembered being trapped in the crowd and feeling claustrophobic.

“You were pumped!” Kevin exclaimed. “We had a great time!”

Daniel stared blankly at him. He remembered the feeling of being completely overwhelmed. “I don’t think I saw the same show,” he said quietly, the statement a heavy stone in the pit of his stomach.

Role in Research

This story is one of 1,000 stories generated for the emotion droopy. During extraction, it was fed through Gemma4-31B and its hidden state activations were captured at 11 layers.

The mean activation across all 1,000 droopy stories, after denoising with neutral dialogue baselines, produces the droopy emotion vector -- a direction in the model's 5,376-dimensional representation space.
