Why this must be read: Because Matt is one of the most intriguing characters in the fandom - and that's saying a lot with this particular cast! This is a short fic, but it strikes the perfect notes.
There is a very vague crossover in here which most people won't notice, and doesn't matter. Consider it a challenge to find it. :)
Author's Summary: Matt started smoking because of television.
Matt started smoking because of television.
He refuses to acknowledge that his background had any influence. Ash was the first scent and the first color he ever knew, but he won’t credit his no-called parents with anything, not even his flaws.
He might have been clean all his life out of sheer contrariness, if not for that show. If he concentrates, he can still visualize the hero’s cigarette grin, the hero’s liquid gait. Shabby yet imperious, so goddamn cool. And Matt has never been cool; he’s apathetic, which is almost.
