Masterlist

Something me and my friend @sunshine-trash came up with one night when it was past our bed times

Eccentric and he knows it, kinda takes pride in it-- he’s not a jerk about it but doesn’t try to hide it

Literally travels all the time (obviously) sits first class in the blimp

Always pulling snacks out of his inner jacket pockets to eat while traveling

They somehow never run out

Does politely flirt with blimp stewardesses when they stop by to ask if he wants a beverage or pillow

“Excuse me sir, would you like something to drink?”

“Only if it’s as sweet as you.”

His actual home is probably a smaller apartment since he doesn’t stay there often

It’s got a lot of light wood textures though like a wood coffee table, wood shelves, wooden knick knacks collected on trips

His kitchen is also pretty small with a bare pantry, he prefers to eat out and meet friends when he is home

You work as a greeter at the air docks for international travelers, checking their passports and welcoming them to the city

You first saw Jun after one of his many trips coming through the customs lines

But it wasn’t your line

It was your friend Joshua’s

Who is also a greeter

You kinda just look longingly at him from your station whenever you see him cuz somehow he always chooses Joshua’s line

He hasn’t caught you staring at him yet

But Joshua has

And Vernon, who occasionally visits you when he’s on break from the coffee shop at the docking station

Vernon thinks it’s hilarious that you have a crush on the obviously well traveled and eccentric stranger

He jokingly calls the him your husband

Joshua thinks it’s cute too

Until you hastily force him out of his station the next time you see the stranger come through

You greet Mr. Handsome like all other travelers and he seems not to pay any attention to the difference in greeters

You obviously hadn’t expected any sort of big romantic eye meeting and him confessing to you but you were still kinda bummed that it didn’t happen

You do continue to steal Joshua’s line however every single time he comes back into town

It’s not until you two meet at Jeonghan’s bar that you actually talk to each other

You sing at Jeonghan’s bar every last Friday of the month

Jun coincidentally happens to be there this time visiting the bartender, Minghao

Mingyu also frequents the bar and  likes to bother Minghao

The three are having a conversation as you sing some cool 20s smooth music

You can’t see Jun cuz all the lights are low so you don’t know he’s there and he’s so focused on visiting that he hasn’t even checked who the entertainer is for tonight

but he does think she sounds beautiful

A little later in the conversation Minghao jokingly asks Jun how is wife is doing

To which Jun replies “I still haven’t decided how to confront her, imagine how weird it would be to have a total stranger approach you at work and say ‘hey I think love you would you be mine’”

“Well you don’t have to be that creepy about it”

Jun lays his head on the bar in dramatic defeat

The mention of Jun’s situation reminds Mingyu of what his co-worker Vernon told him about one of the greeters at the air dock station and how she jokingly called a frequent flyer her husband

“What did you say your wife’s-- the greeter’s name was again?”

“Apparently Joshua. That’s what the name plate at her station says at least.”

“Oh no, that’s Y/N, she’s been switching Joshua’s station every time this one traveler comes through”

“Y/N is actually the singer up right now”

Jun is now very intent on seeing who’s been singing all night now and finds out oh wow yep that’s the cute greeter

He’s freaking out about how to talk to you since he finally has a chance to converse with you like a normal person without the pressure of a long line behind him

Minghao assures him that you always get a drink (alcoholic or not) from the bar on your break and that Jun can talk to you then, he’ll introduce you

So after finishing your first set you head to the bar and see you husb-- the handsome guy you’ve been drooling over for the past few months

And promptly decide to sit as far away as possible cuz you don’t want him to think that you’re stalking him

Minghao is giving Jun very obvious verbal cues to go approach you

And he does so in a way he thinks seems really nonchalant

Moving closer by switching over a chair about every 20 seconds

Which was really not inconspicuous and made you nervous cuz “why is he coming closer??”

When he’s finally two seats over he stops stool hopping

And he kinda just stares at Minghao silently begging for help and refuses to look at you in fear that would make it awkward

He is wrong

It’s already awkward

After receiving no help from the bartender Jun finally resolves to just start conversation with you which goes like this

“Hi”

“Hi”

“You look very wife -- I mean nice!” he tries to cover up quickly

Luckily the irony of his word choice makes you laugh and break the tension

“Thank you”

It’s now that Minghao decides to finally help you and Jun along since Jun kind of stopped working after hearing you laugh

“Y/N, this is Jun. He’s an old friend of mine. Jun, this is Y/N.”

“I always thought the name Joshua didn’t suit you” Jun said jokingly

You thanked whoever was above because it would have been so awkward if he hadn’t remembered you and you remembered him

But also oh boy, he knows you’ve been changing stations now

From there you two interact more naturally and Jun talks to you whenever he comes to the docking station

He purposely picks your line now so you don’t have to give Joshua the boot every time

After a couple more months Jun finally asks you out with no less than a dozen roses

To which you say yes

As the relationship progresses you start to take time off to go with Jun on his cartography adventures

the places he goes are so pretty and exotic

but you just stay close to the hotel cuz uh no you don’t want to go into uncharted territory thanks

Jun doesn’t mind, at least he gets to come home (hotel room) to you

You laughed your butt off the first time you saw him actually working on a map cuz he had the magnifying glasses on

And they made his eyes look like, 8 times bigger than they should be

He enjoys making you laugh so of course he milked it for all it was worth

“What? What’s funny? What’s so funny Y/N, hm?” as he gets closer to you before tickling your sides

Finally after over probably like 2 years of dating Jun wants to pop the question

One problem

He’s kind of eccentric

And his girlfriend is perfect so like??

The ring also has to be perfect??

So he pretty much starts searching all over the globe for the “perfect ring” but just tells you its mapping business cuz he wants to be romantic and surprise you

But after a while it gets old and you start to miss him since he’s gone so often

And after one of the many phone calls made between the two of you where you tell him you miss him a lot and wish he were with you cuz you miss his cuddles and his kisses and laugh and just his everything he decides that enough is enough

The ring doesn’t matter because the person he wants to marry is enough

He proposes at  the air dock station when he’s coming home

He most definitely held up the line

But you said yes

The ring is simple and elegant with a medium sized diamond and a few surrounding smaller diamonds

There’s an inscription on the inside that says “In you I find home”

So when you got Jun’s matching wedding band (that does have a medium inset diamond cuz you know that boy’s gotta have the fancy stuff) you had the inscription “In you I find adventure”

He got teary eyed when he first saw the inscription

You can bet your bottom dollar he gave you a giant love filled hug after that and did not leave you alone for the next 24  hours

Lots of cuddles and nuzzling your neck lovingly cuz omg the affection and wow he loves you

You eventually tell him about your crush on him from before you met him and how you called him husband back then

He tried to make fun of you “Of course you did, how could you not love me at first sight? I’m devastatingly handsome?”

“You look very wife” you shut him up by teasing him about your first actual encounter

It kinda backfires cuz he’s cheesy

Another addition for steampunk cartographer! Jun
