Coming Soon

So the fandom has called and there will be a Matt Simmons Appreciation Week. It's fitting considering that Daniel Henney's birthday is this month and what better way to celebrate by acknowledging Matt Simmons.

The appreciation week will start on November 21st and end on the 28th

here are the prompts for gifs:

Day 1: Favorite Outfit/looks

Day 2: Favorite Quote

Day 3: Favorite Matt Simmons pairing (romantic)-could be canon or fanon, up to you

Day 4: Favorite Matt Simmons Friendship-either in cm or in cmbb

Day 5: Favorite Matt centric episode-Blue Angel, Ex-Parte, Rule 34, Spectator Showing, Ghost, Pretty Like Me. Doesn't have to be 100% Matt centric like the Barnes arc episodes, Blowback, Beyond Borders and Saturday

Day 6: Favorite scene/moment involving Matt

Day 7: Free Choice

For the fic writers, here are the following prompts:

Day 1: family

Day 2: blood/hurt

Day 3: cooking

Day 4: winter

Day 5: kissing/flirting

Day 6: sports

Day 7: party time

They can be smut, fluff, angst or a combination of two or three of them. They can also be x reader, katt or any Matt pairings (platonic or romantic)

Tagging: @marvelfanlife, @the-invisible-queer, @unitchiefs-blackbirdphoenix, @missmitchieg, @hey-dw, @snailsandpuppy-dogtails, @stunudo, @hotch-girl, @gaelic-symphony, @sapphicprentiss, @rewrotethestars, @ghostlypawn, @emilylprentiss, @catvampire feel free to spread the word out, even if you are unable to take part in this for whatever reason

Important notes/reminders:

For those who plan on taking part of the appreciation week, make sure to use the tag, #mattsimmonsappreciationweek23 or #mattsimmonsaw23, you can also tag this blog, @damnhotmsimmons for fics and or gifs

While the appreciation week ends on the 28th, I will accept any late submissions as long as you use the proper tags

It's understandable if you're unable to do every prompt for the week.

For fic writers, provide proper content warnings, especially if writing fics or oneshots that contain explicit smut, mentions of violence, other sensitive subjects etc

Don't worry about perfection, gifsets don't have to be super fancy

For those who are interested but are unable to participate for whatever reason, reblogs for any Matt centric posts are okay, this appreciation week is for everyone in the cm fandom, both content creators and fans who are neither gif makers nor fic writers

That said, I've worked hard on this, I'd appreciate this appreciation week not to flop

For anyone who has any questions, my inbox and dms are open, both here and on my main blog, @tenaciousarcadeexpert

Hide & Seek

For: Matt Simmons Appreciation Week, Day 1 Theme: Family Content warnings: None this time around. A/N: I'm sorry this is a day late!

It was a rainy Saturday afternoon, a rare occasion of Matt and Kristy both having a day off at the same time, when Matt Simmons picked up his phone to film a TikTok.

He chuckled as he heard a gaggle of children scuffle around on the other side of the door, whispering to his phone. "Hello, TikTok. It is four PM, and I'm sitting under the bathroom sink playing Hide and Seek with my kids." He grinned handsomely, running a hand through his dark hair. "I've been hiding here for twenty minutes. They'll never find me."

"Daaaad!"

Matt heard David's voice call from the hallway and smiled wide, his eyes squinting fondly.

"Come ooouuuut!" David called out, laughter in his voice.

He shook his head, knees pulled up to his chest.

"Daaaaaddyyyy! Weh ahhhh yoooouuu?"

Matt pouted as his youngest daughter called out to him, putting his free hand on his heart as her voice pulled on his heartstrings.

"My baby." He cooed, hearing his wife's sweet voice and footsteps coming toward the bathroom.

"Hey, did you check the backyard? I think daddy might be out there." Kristy smiled before sneaking into the bathroom and yanking open the cabinet under the sink. "Boo!" She giggled as Matt startled, looking up at her with a smile.

"Hi, my love." Matt leaned over to press a kiss to her lips, leaning into the gentle touch of Kristy's hand.

"Hi, handsome. You picked a good spot." Kristy gave him a crooked smile. "You've been sitting in here for twenty two minutes."

"I know. I heard you lie for me." Matt hummed, shifting to cross his legs. "Getting hungry in here."

"I'll get you a snack, baby. What do you want?"

"Cheez-its, please."

Kristy nodded and looked up when they heard the kids scramble back into the house.

"Well, he wasn't outside." David sounded disappointed. "Let's split up. Jake, go check the kitchen. Chloe, Lily, you guys go look in the bedrooms. Rosie, stay with me."

"Otay!"

Kristy snorted, snickering into her hands.

"Well…" Matt blinked, his brown eyes flicking from his phone to his wife. "Isn't David organized." He joked with a shake of his head.

Kristy bit her lip to keep from laughing and kissed him again before standing and leaving the bathroom. "Make sure you get really good looks under the beds, girls!" She reminded them as she walked past the bedrooms and headed downstairs to the kitchen, pressing a kiss to Jake's head. She grabbed a bag of Cheez-its and a Kool-Aid juice pouch, sneaking back into the bathroom.

Matt pressed his lips together as Kristy shut the cabinet doors on him again, shrugging at his phone. He sat and waited for Kristy to come back, perking up as he heard her footsteps again.

"Hi, honey." She pouted and slumped her shoulders, glancing at David who was smirking with crossed arms.

"Wha-"

"He caught me sneaking up with your snacks." Kristy sighed and smiled at David, pinching his cheek.

"Oh, mooom!" David groaned and scrunched his face up, leaning away from her as Matt crawled out of the cabinet.

"Daddy!" Rose Mary giggled as she toddled toward him and stumbled into his arms, kissing his cheek.

"Hello, baby." He cooed, hugging her to his chest. Matt laughed fondly and watched David call out to his siblings, happily munching on his crackers.

"Guys, I found him! He was hiding in the bathroom!" David hollered, his siblings stampeding the bathroom a second later.

"Daddy!" Chloe and Lily beamed and surrounded him, giving him tight hugs.

"Can we play Monopoly now instead of another round of Hide and Seek? You always find us in two seconds." Jake asked Matt, holding Rose Mary's hand.

"Sure." Matt nodded.

"I'll get the board. No accusing anyone of cheating this time, Matthew!"

"David does cheat!" Matt hollered back.

"It's not David's fault he gets lucky in Monopoly!" Kristy yelled back.

David snickered, leaning against Matt's shoulder. "Hi, TikTok!" He said with a wave.

"Bye, TikTok." Matt laughed and ended the recording.
