Name: Longmen Memoirs
Author: A Corner Under the Eaves

Synopsis

[A Corner Beneath One Roof]

I’ve known Talulah since we were little. In the year 1077 of the Age of Originium, after the conflict between Lungmen and Ursus ended, I left the resettlement camp and entered that orphanage. I was seven that year, and she was the first friend I made there.

I always thought we’d make it through the orphanage together and grow up. We’d get married, live together in a newly built city, and have a home of our own. But things rarely went as we’d hoped.

Ch’en arrived the following winter. It had snowed lightly the night before. The man holding her hand stood outside the orphanage’s great iron gate. I watched her walk inside, leaving a row of tiny footprints in the courtyard, where yellowed, withered grass grew thick.

Ch’en and I never got along very well, but we eventually became friends. We had no choice. Though she was deeply reluctant, she took my hand, and together we wandered the streets, alleys, slopes, and docks of Lungmen.

So much happened after that. Our fates became entangled through a twist of circumstance, then grew further apart as life carried us in different directions.

Amiya, I want to tell you that there should be no such thing as “fate” in this world.

Arknights Reading List

I try to recommend books with original ideas, characters who aren’t too out of character, and strong writing and results. They shouldn’t focus mainly on CCB. Of course, some have been abandoned, but the writing was good, so I included them anyway.

Good news, the author isn't dead; he's currently arguing with his work. Bad news: the author is incredibly lazy and has repeatedly defrauded group members.

How did you guys manage to make it to the end? The earlier parts were making me feel nauseous.

Of all the Arknights fanfiction I've read, this memoir by Laowu has touched me the most. His portrayal of each character is exceptionally well done and almost perfectly faithful to the original work (in my opinion). The upright and unyielding Chen, the lazy wildcat girl, the fox who always thinks of Chen Mo (especially after seeing the fox's ending in the Hai Si branch, my heart trembled), the lovesick Texas (I particularly love this kind of emotionless personality), the childhood friend Xiaota, and the dearest prince—every detail is impeccable, every polishing shows his dedication. I dare say that Laowu's understanding of Arknights characters is at least in the top three among Arknights fanfiction writers, if not the best. I only read about Chen Mo's death in the Ursus Rift before high school, and now that I've finished the college entrance exam, he's already finished the Kazimierz arc. Today is my lunar birthday, please, teacher, please continue writing! As long as it doesn't end badly or get abandoned, I'll be happy even if it's only updated once every ten or twenty days. I beg you again, teacher. ε(┬┬┬┬)3 P. S.: The above content is based on my personal understanding. Please feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

Are there any similar books? This book was truly a gem; I devoured five million words in a month, and now I'm left with nothing but emptiness. I can't seem to connect with other books anymore. #(Crying)#(crying)

Mo is the dog, Hu is the chain, Ta is the master, Chen is the doghouse, De is the sapling, Te is the sunshine, and Na is the guest.

This is outrageous! The author of this story has only updated less than 60 chapters in 9 months! I'm speechless!

Doesn't anyone think the song "Iron Flower Flies" is particularly suitable for Chen Mo?
