"he looked at her like he just realised what love is" As a student of Hampton College, it's easy to feel isolated, cut off from the rest of the world. This is only one of the reasons Henry Winter loves it. Ever since he's been able to form memories, Henry has felt... numb, in a way. The world around him has always appeared uneventful and dull. The one thing he finds a sort of comfort in is burying his head in studies of the ancient. Now, in his second year of college, he's planning to do just that. But suddenly, something shifts when he meets Odette, a young literature student with her heart on her cheek. Henry has never before been much interested in romance. Not that he was particularly against it, only that he had never met anyone who interested him enough for him to actually consider it and he didn't expect to. That's why he gets profusely confused when he can't seem to stay away from this seemingly ordinary, uncomplicated girl. Still, he feels like he's been throw into a play and given the role the lovestruck hero. And things don't often go well for love eyed boys in stories. Especially not when your story is a tragedy. Still, he cannot stop himself. Her touch is addictive, her kiss intoxicating, and now that he's felt her attention on him, he doesn't know how he'll ever survive without it. All characters except Odette are owned and created by the queen of literature, Donna Tartt. This story takes place the year before The Secret History and will later move onto the plot of the book with changes to fit the main character and her story. For anyone actually reading this, I am so sorry because I am in the habit of going back and editing, which could absolutely make it confusing. For anyone who's reading this years later, it will be so much better because of it.

So this is only a WIP (work in progress) of one of my OC's lore. I decided to post it here in hopes of receiving constructive criticism on my writing, as English is not my first language. .: Vitae is inspired by the book The Secret History by Donna Tartt, some quotes from Oscar Wilde and something Dr. Ratio (from hsr) says when he attacks (please don't ask). .: I only ever posted this on Wattpad, so if you see this anywhere else please let me know! ®ariadne0io

A re imagining of The Secret History with my own characters and plot twists. Basically we had a project for biology homework to write a short story incorporating DNA into a crime scene and I wrote this, so I thought I'd share it for anyone who wanted to read. I'm truly expecting this to get no reads, it's just a headshot split over 8 chapters. I may consider writing it in more depth when I get more time, but here's a couple thousand word short story for anyone who's interested.

When newcomer Richard Papen comes to Hempden and meets Julian Morrow's grecophiles and when Richard finds out happened on the faithful night of their bacchanal, everything goes downhill from there. ‼️I do not own any of the characters in this book except Angelina. All rights of the secret history and characters belong to the very talented author Donna Tartt.‼️

With a hole in the roof and a teacher out of town, Richard has to get saved by dear old Henry for winter break- Same as how the story goes. However, things go a bit differently than expected when going home with Henry. - Although a bit for shipping, this is mostly to just build upon their character dynamic in general! I really loved that The Secret History wasn't really about romance, so don't expect anything overly mushy! Although, it's in character, it is a cannon divergent retelling which starts after Henry saves Richard from being a frozen popsicle

"For what it's worth, Henry, you have nothing to prove to me." "And when it all falls apart?" "I'll be there."

Henri est un étudiant en droit. Pragmatique et plein de flegme, il n'a jamais vraiment eu d'amis jusqu'à ce qu'un jour, il renverse quelqu'un dans un couloir. Il fait la rencontre de Martin qui l'invite à une amicale de littérature. Il rencontre ceux qui seront ses futurs amis. Parallèlement, il rencontre Léa dont il tombe amoureux. Mais celle-ci semble n'avoir pas oublié son amour de vacances. Pris d'une migraine, Henri tombe peu à peu dans la folie.

Henry Winter was supposed to be dead. But the bullet missed its mark. Instead of dying, Henry vanished-disappearing into the shadows of Europe, a ghost among ruins and forgotten libraries. Now, years later, he lives in exile, haunted by memories of a past he can never escape, trapped between survival and oblivion. This is the story of a man who chose to live in silence - where love, guilt, and myth blur into one.
