stimulated - Story 139960 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

He hadn't felt this… *present* in years. The discovery had been a blur of adrenaline, a rush of energy. Liam found it while ripping up a section of his old, cracked patio. He hadn’t intended to dig; the compulsion had been sudden, overwhelming.

The box was made of lead, heavy and cold. It held a single, perfectly preserved rose. The petals were a deep, crimson red. Liam picked it up, his fingers brushing against the delicate surface. A jolt, a current of something powerful, surged through him, and he closed his eyes, savoring the moment.

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.
