droopy - Story 35675 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The campus cafeteria was too loud. The aroma of stale coffee and microwaved food was nauseating. Sarah poked listlessly at her mashed potatoes, avoiding eye contact with her friends. Their excited speculation about the future felt sharp, a knife twisting in her gut. How was she supposed to finish her dissertation without Professor Ito?

Her friend, Emily, tried to draw her into the conversation, but Sarah could only manage a weak smile and a shrug. The world felt muffled, distant, her own thoughts like shadows. Every sentence was an effort, and the idea of tackling her thesis felt like ascending a mountain made of sand.

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.
