stimulated - Story 139111 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The coach's words hit Amelia like a jolt of electricity. "Amelia, we're moving you to libero." Her stomach flipped. This wasn't the outside hitter position she'd trained for her whole life. This was…different. A shiver ran down her spine as she imagined the diving, the quick reactions, the responsibility of defense.

She couldn't help but grin, a wide, uncontrollable grin that split her face. Her palms tingled, and she bounced on the balls of her feet. This was a challenge. A huge, exhilarating, terrifying challenge.

"You think you can handle it?" the coach asked, a slight smile playing on his lips. "Absolutely, Coach," she breathed, her voice a little too high, a little too eager. She could feel the blood pumping in her ears, the anticipation bubbling in her chest. This was going to be fun.

Role in Research

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