patient - Story 102336 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

“We’re closing,” the voice on the other end of the phone said, sounding almost apologetic. Maya’s lips tightened, but she remained silent. The announcement came from her favorite bakery.

She held the phone, the cold metal a stark contrast to the warmth of her kitchen. She took a deep breath, and then carefully, slowly, hung up.

She made herself a cup of tea. She watched the steam curl up, and she decided to go there tomorrow. She would buy a dozen of everything, a proper goodbye.

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.
