enraged - Story 43627 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The news felt like a physical blow. James stared at his phone, his face contorted. Professor Miller, the one who'd given him a B- on his last essay, was following him. He felt the muscles in his jaw clench, his teeth grinding together. He’d been so vocal about his dislike for the man, his condescending tone, his… everything. The heat rose in his cheeks, making him want to scream.

He spun around in his chair, knocking it over. The sound echoed in the empty room. He needed to obliterate the source of his anger. He wanted to inflict pain, to break something, to make this feeling stop.
