The vibrant hallway of the dorm felt like a maze, each step an effort. David walked with a heavy gait, his shoulders hunched. The lively chatter of other students felt like a distant echo. His roommate, Jake, was already on the phone, his voice animated and energetic, oblivious to David's mood.

When he went to get his journal, it was out of place on the desk. He felt a jolt of alarm, a sense of violation. He opened it and saw the entry about his parents, and the secret worries he had shared. His throat felt tight.

"Hey," Jake said, ending his call, "You look a bit… off. Everything good?" David just shook his head, unable to speak, the color draining from his face.

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.

Logit Lens (Layer 40)
