As a writer, it's oftentimes incredibly hard to make the words convey exactly what you want them to. It's why showing vs telling is so important. As prevalent as it is nowadays, I feel that AI isn't capable of inserting real emotion into a story. I have never used it to write, nor will I. It can check me for mistakes, but I don't always listen to its suggestions. Most often, I don't--except for commas. I hate those things.
This particular chapter needed all the emotion I could give it. I think I managed, or at least I hope I did. It's why I'm happy when I see readers have strong reactions, good or bad, to a character. It means I've done my job.
