furious - Story 53823 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The coffee cup trembled in Mark’s hand, sloshing lukewarm liquid onto the pristine white table. Across from him, staring back with an infuriatingly placid expression, was David. David, his supposed collaborator. He’d known, of course. He’d known all along. Mark should have seen the signals. The guarded replies, the evasive explanations.

“So, you’re saying… you’ve been working on the exact same proposal?” Mark asked, his voice cracking. He felt a cold knot tighten in his stomach.

David nodded, taking a leisurely sip of his own coffee. “Pretty much. Great minds, and all that.”

Mark slammed his cup down, the ceramic shattering on impact. The sound, the mess, barely registered. He was burning.
