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 first real scan after six weeks of treatment was scheduled for Thursday. He had been trying not to think about it and trying not to not-think about it. On Tuesday evening he caught himself planning the summer. Small things — the dock that needed restaining, the trip to his sister's he'd been putting off. He stopped and noticed he was planning. A part of him wanted to take it back, don't get ahead of yourself. But another part, quieter, newer, said no, let it stay. Let the plan be there. Whether or not anything comes of it, the planning itself is allowed.
