shocked - Story 132707 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

She felt a cold sweat break out on her forehead. The room spun around her, and she felt a strong urge to leave. She gripped the marker, her hand shaking.

“Camp Blackwood?” she asked, her voice cracking. The casual, easy tone of the conversation felt sinister, alien. The whiteboard seemed to leer at her.
