eager - Story 37009 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

I woke with a jolt, the notification from my phone still fresh in my mind. Someone had taken my art and made it part of their being. The feeling was immediate and overwhelming. I was practically bouncing with energy.

I threw on the first clothes I could find, and flew out the door. The address was a little out of the way, and the journey seemed to take an eternity. I was practically gnawing on my lip when I finally arrived.

The doors swung open, and there it was, my 'Eternal Flame' on the person's arm, glowing with a life of its own. I was speechless with joy.
