As mentioned in my previous post, I sort of fell off the wagon of doing anything when I started working again back in January. If I do any more catching up, it'll be out of order, but I just had a thought that I should do this and connecting it to the Snowflake Challenge gives me the opportunity to add it to a list of other similar posts. I plan to keep this as something I can update in an ongoing fashion, though.
This post is intended to be a wishlist or a prompt list for myself or anyone else who happens upon it and wants to do something for me and take inspiration. If you do make something from a prompt on this list, please gift it to me on AO3 or let me know here or something!
I really like this movie, and it's one of the few superhero or speculative fiction movies my father likes. He watched it again on the night that I am writing this post, and it got me to thinking that i needed to write this down for this post.
Wish #1: There is one good-looking fic from Yuletide 2019 I have yet to read that deals with this, but I just so much want content about Hancock, Ray, and Mary falling into a healthy polyamorous relationship. Ray was so clearly smitten with Hancock, and he and Aaron were so traumatized in the second-to-last scene of the film. He was losing both Mary and Hancock at once, and he picks up a fire axe and is heroic himself as a mere mortal, and I love it so freaking much. Just! More! And I guess maybe them dealing with Ray and Aaron being mortal while, if Hancock and Mary stay away from each other except for periodic visits, they don't.
Wish #2: It's canon that Hancock's name isn't Hancock. Who was he before? There is an eagle motif and we know they're about 3000 years old. Beyond that, what? I know for a fact he's not Zeus. Zeus was an even bigger asshole than Hancock. So what are our other options?
Wish #3: This whole... freaking... mythology is so cool and I can't believe that this thing didn't get franchised and done to death. In a way, I'm grateful, but like this could be fused with other fandoms or used for soulmate AUs so much. These superhuman creatures created in pairs for whom it's physics that they become ordinary humans if they are close to each other for long. Mary claims that all the others died with their partners long ago, but she hesitates, and we know she lied about other things to protect both Hancock and herself. What if she was lying about that? And if not, I want to know more about the others before they perished. She even calls Hancock's tendency to be heroic above and beyond the others "the insurance policy of the gods" and that's just so romantic and argh. I love it. Gimme.
More to come on this post if and when I think of it! Last Updated: February 16, 2020
