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.

Whatever the drug was, it was working. She was aware of her skin as a single continuous surface, warm, slightly humming. The couch under her had gone soft in a way that probably wasn't literal. Her partner's hand on her hip felt like it was everywhere. She could hear every rustle in the room, and none of it demanded anything. Time had gone loose — something that felt like five minutes had actually been twenty. She tried to remember what she had been worried about earlier and the worry had the texture of a word she could almost recall. She smiled without deciding to, and slid a little further down into the couch.
