Qwen3.5-27B Musica v1

RP/storygen/conversational tune of Qwen3.5-27B. Stylewise looked pretty nice to me and seems decently steerable, should also reduce refusal rate even further than derestricted ver on which it was based on. Both reasoning and non-reasoning modes are supported, reasoning mode even has several styes of reasoning, reroll to see them (perhaps I should mark them to make them manually evocable on next iter?). Might or might not have slightly better world knowledge than base, lol.

This training run was sponsored by ArliAI

Wishlist for next iter - more conversational reasoning data (and more reasoning data in general) and perhaps something multiturn for creative writing. Perhaps also train Qwen3.5-9B and Nemotron-3-Super-120B-A12B before iterating on dataset.

Training notes

Rank 64, alpha 64 LoRA on top of ArliAI's Derestricted version, for two epochs with constant scheduler. Training took ~17 hours on OwenArli's 2xRTX Pro 6000 Blackwell.

Run's graphs on Comet (DW about that API key in config, I deactivated it before sharing this lol)
