patient - Story 102181 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

Rain lashed against the windows, mimicking the staccato rhythm of the dishwasher. Sarah leaned against the kitchen counter, arms crossed, watching Mark. He was on the phone again, perched on the edge of the bed. She’d heard the muffled conversations for weeks, always hushed, always when she was out of sight. A small knot of unease tightened in her stomach, but she took a deep, steadying breath.

She’d started brewing chamomile tea a while ago, the scent now swirling through the air. The steam kissed her face. She finished, poured the tea, and slowly walked towards the bedroom door. She knocked softly, the sound barely audible over the storm.

"Everything alright?" she asked, her voice even. He looked up, startled, then forced a smile. "Yeah, fine," he said, quickly ending the call. "Just work stuff." She nodded, handed him a mug.

Role in Research

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