The “C” on Lisa’s science presentation was a blow. She’d invested her time, but in planning how to make a fortune off of the research. She visualized the grants, the fame, the power. She could almost taste it. Now, the chance was being stolen from her. She felt a burning sensation in her stomach.

She cornered the professor after class, her voice laced with barely concealed fury. He was oblivious, probably content to spend his life with books while she was being denied her potential. She wanted what was rightfully hers.

"Explain," she demanded, her eyes narrowed, her fists clenched at her side. She deserved to gain what she’d planned for.

Role in Research

This story is one of 1,000 stories generated for the emotion greedy. 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 greedy stories, after denoising with neutral dialogue baselines, produces the greedy emotion vector -- a direction in the model's 5,376-dimensional representation space.
