stimulated - Story 139938 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

It had been a while. A long while. And then, a dozen perfect white calla lilies. No card. Just the flowers, their elegant stems whispering promises. He felt a shift within, like a dam breaking.

He wandered through his apartment, restless. He couldn't eat. Couldn't read. He turned on music, loud and demanding, and began to move. Slowly at first, then faster, letting the rhythm take over.

The evening passed in a blur of movement and sound. He collapsed on the sofa, exhausted but strangely exhilarated. He smiled into the darkness, the scent of lilies lingering in the air.

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.
