He felt a surge, a rising tide of...something powerful, coursing through his veins. Kevin's jaw clenched. The audacity! Sarah, the new intern, making more than him? He felt a sudden, powerful urge to break something, to yell, to *do* something to fix this. He stood up abruptly, his chair scraping loudly against the floor. He needed to move, to be heard.

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.
