Cellbit who places flowers by his sons empty bed and wonders why he works for the federation if he can’t use it to his advantage, if all he does is end up alone. Who could barely handle when him and Roier were fighting, who was so grateful when Foolish would stick around to build for him when he was making himself public enemy to gain favor with the feds. Who pleads with Forever, who is so very clearly out of his mind, begging him not to leave him alone, not like this, not now of all times.
Cellbit who is keeping himself as calm and as balanced as he can, because he knows what it’s like to lose yourself, and he knows how isolating it can be. Who’s there for every one of the islanders even if it’s spreading him far too thin, backpack bursting with notes and photos and evidence with all the problems he’s relied on to help solve. Who’s building the Order to make sure that no matter where their allegiances lay, no one on the island will have to deal with the federation on their own. So they’ll have a place they can come together and rely on each other.
Cellbit who just doesn’t want to end up alone. Not again. Not anymore.

Hi if u don't mind I wanted to ask you how did gon saved yeong in ep 16 i mean what happened after he saved him how did other royal gaurds react . I know no information is given in the drama so pls if u can make something up or anything I think could have happened pls share this question has been bugging me for years
ooooOOh a very interesting question, especially considering I haven’t really gone back to watching Episode 16 in any great detail after I watched the show for the first time - and that was because it annoyed me how, as far as we know, Gon left Yeong to die there. He said in his internal monologue that he needed to go back for Yeong, but we never saw that on screen, and I was in a sour mood as I watched the episode all the way up until I saw Yeong alive again and realised that because the timeline reset it wouldn’t have mattered anyway.
Do I want to watch Episode 16 again? No, not really, it will remind me of how angry I felt the first time, so this is going to be based on what I can remember from Cheonjongo in 1994 (Yeong got shot, he was lying with little Gon, and older Gon gave him a nod and left him to bleed out as he went to find Lee Lim) and what I can remember from the end of the show (Yeong was alive and well, and still working as the Captain of the Royal Guard. Also he had siblings).
After defeating Lee Lim and obtaining the whole Manpasikjeok, Gon went back for Yeong, as he said he would in his internal monologue. He sprints through the forests around Haeungung Palace back to Cheonjongo, praying to any deity that will listen that his Yeong is still alive. Maybe it should have occurred to him that Yeong would have lived in the reset timeline, but he can’t think about that. And even if he had realised that, since the timeline had been changed, who knew whether this reset Yeong would be the same as the one he loves now?
He has to save his Yeong. His Yeong has to be alive.
He storms back through the palace, not caring about the palace staff giving him odd looks. He doesn’t get stopped - Cheonjongo has already had enough chaos for one night, and he could easily be a member of staff running in to aid in the rescue efforts. No one gets a good enough look at his face, and they’re too exhausted to care. So Gon rushes in, yelling out for “YEONG!”
But Yeong isn’t there. Not many people are left, and those that are there are giving him weird looks. Gon then remembers a crucial detail: one of the first things that the royal guards focused on after the treason was getting the injured young king to hospital. If they took his younger self, they also would have noticed Yeong, and would have taken him too.
So that’s where Gon goes next. Again, it’s busy, it’s hectic, the royal hospital has never been this busy, but now there are injured and dying royal guards filling the rooms, and their worried loved ones milling around the rooms and the corridors.
Yeong is in one of the rooms, hooked up to some machines and sleeping peacefully. Gon can see the pulse of his heart beating steadily on a screen beside him, so he’s alive at least.
The problem is the guards standing outside his door, and his wrist that is cuffed to his bed frame. Because in 1994, Yeong wasn’t recognised as a member of staff, he wasn’t the renowned Captain of the Royal Guards… he was a stranger, and anyone that was a stranger must have been a traitor. As if he wasn’t comforting the new young king, and doing all he could to preserve his life when they found him.
Gon can’t take him, not like this. But he can’t leave him, either. He can’t leave him to be arrested and treated as a criminal for saving his king’s life, and more importantly he can’t let him stay in the wrong time. Gon has to take Yeong back to the moment they left, so the timeline can continue - just like how he himself travelled through time before, he needs to do the same thing with Yeong, taking him back to the point where they left so they can continue where they left off.
Praying that the doctors had done enough, Gon goes to find Yeong’s room from the outside, and uses his skills from entering and leaving his quarters undetected to get in through the window of Yeong’s room. He quietly picks the lock of the handcuffs, and gently wakes Yeong up, covering Yeong’s mouth when he’s surprised at the new surroundings. Gon knows that they won’t have much time once the people outside his room realise that his heart monitor is no longer beeping, so he keeps Yeong connected for as long as he can, helping Yeong up, finding him his shoes… and eventually they make a run for it. Yeong is slow, so until they’re in relative safety, Gon thinks it’ll be faster if he carries Yeong there.
It’s hard, but Gon hardly notices. All he can think about is getting Yeong back to the kingdom in their timeline, so that’s what he does. The Manpasikjeok feels this desire and helps him go where he needs to go: Haeungung Palace, 2020, the Kingdom of Corea that they call home. It’s certainly a sight - the security team watching the CCTV cameras are shocked to see Captain Jo leaning against the king, a bloodstain visible through the hospital gown he’s wearing, and they send out a team immediately to receive them and to get Captain Jo the help he so clearly needs. The staff try and ask what happened, but Gon won’t answer, so they eventually give in and accept that they won’t get an answer.
And after that… well, Yeong recovers, and things return to normal. Normal-ish. There are things that are different, but Yeong at least can blame his “amnesia” on his “mysterious accident.” And Gon… well, Gon is used to people telling him things that he’s expected to have already known, and he’s used to putting on a smile and thinking on his feet, and this is no different for him.
…is that any good? It’s nothing super in-depth, I’m not sure how much you wanted, but I think that’s a rough play-by-play of how things could have gone :D
