Emotion-labeled short-paragraph corpus for training amygdala steering vectors. Manifest derived from Anthropic's 171-emotion list (transformer-circuits.pub/2026/emotions, Table 12) plus 28 PoC- specific additions covering axes Anthropic's general research doesn't cover (curious, focused, in_flow, staying_with, filling_space, rigorous, defensive_rigor, tender, witnessed, connected, etc.). Scope pivoted mid-write: Kent noted the empirical dimensionality-of- emotion question benefits from maximum coverage, so the manifest will expand further with emotions from Wikipedia's emotion- classification article (Parrott's tree, Plutchik's wheel + dyads, HUMAINE EARL, cultural-specific emotions a la Saudade/Hiraeth). Expansion staged in follow-up commits. This commit: README with method + style guidelines, initial manifest (199 emotions), and 15 hand-written one-paragraph stories across all 10 Anthropic clusters as quality/variety samples. Each story embodies one emotion without naming it; narrator voice varies (first/third, close/distant, different situations) to keep steering vectors from overfitting to one voice.

The rep was going to happen. She didn't know if her legs would come up, but she knew she was going to try to bring them up. Bar on her shoulders, breath in, descend. At the bottom something in her said *no, this one's too heavy*, and she ignored the voice the way she had learned to ignore it. On the way up her face made a shape her coach would recognize from across the gym. Slow. Slower. For half a second the bar stalled at the sticking point. She stayed with it. One more inch. And up. She racked it. She didn't celebrate. She just nodded once, for herself, and set up for the next rep.
