outraged - Story 98557 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The man's complete lack of awareness was staggering! Ben paced back and forth, the cheap carpet doing little to absorb the sound of his frustrated steps. Alex wanted a parrot. A PARROT! The screeching, the mess, the potential for it to eat all their snacks while he was at work. The very thought made him want to rip his hair out.

He stopped in front of Alex, who was whistling a jaunty tune. He needed to make it crystal clear. He needed to assert his boundaries.

“Alex!” he said, his voice rising in volume. “Do you hear yourself? A parrot? The noise, the feathers, the… the destruction? This is not a zoo!” His hands were clenched at his sides.

Alex shrugged, unconcerned. Ben could practically feel the veins in his temples throbbing. The disregard was maddening.
