insulted - Story 75892 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

A coldness swept over David as he read the professor's feedback. "Lacks critical analysis." The words stung. He'd poured his heart into this essay, staying up late, wrestling with complex philosophical concepts.

He shoved the paper away, the action abrupt and furious. His jaw clenched. He felt a potent surge of anger at the evaluation, an accusation that felt completely unfounded.

He ran a hand through his hair, the action agitated. The professor, a man he'd always respected, had dismissed his work with a few curt sentences. He felt a bitter taste in his mouth, a feeling of utter dismissal.
