resigned - Story 118425 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"Reunion, huh?" Mark asked, the question directed at the mirror as he shaved, the razor scraping against his jaw. He paused, the blade suspended mid-stroke. He stared at his reflection, at the lines etched around his eyes and the slight paunch that had settled around his middle.

He knew what he'd wear. He knew how he'd act. He knew the questions he’d be asked and the responses he’d give. All the pieces were there. It was just a matter of assembling them.

The razor dropped to the sink with a metallic clink. He finished shaving in silence, moving through the motions of his morning routine.
