Oh, good. That's always what I'm hoping for.
Oh, good! I wanted them happy, and I wanted Hancock not alone.
Apparently so! Now we just lie back and wait for all the fabulous stories to flow in ...

I'm so glad! I really want the three of them to wind up together, but I just can't figure out any way to bridge the gap completely.
They need snuggling, don't they? And that picture would make some tabloid photographer some serious cash.
I wish there were a whole fandom, but I don't really see it happening. Just not enough canon. still, I'm glad you enjoyed this one!
I'm so glad! The movie really does seem to ask for something like this.
Oh, good! I'm glad other people saw the possibilities there.
Oh, dear, was it that long? I just don't seem to be able to produce the way I used to. Still, I'm glad someone else saw it there in the movie. And you certainly ought to be forced to write me some stories; I can't be the only one!
Oh, now that is hilarious. Because Ray is not just a white guy, he's a white P.R. guy, which seems like taking white to the next level, you know?
The movie was surprisingly subtle about some things, wasn't it? while being predictably unsubtle about so many others, of course.

Dude, I KNOW. He's like, the whitest white guy in whiteville. And yet he's totally the vessal for Hancock's self-actualization. In fact, it's his very mystical whiteness, one might argue, which allows Hancock to self-actualize.
I was really worried at first there -- like, just what the world needs to see, a flying black man holding a bottle of malt liquor. But things got infinitely weirder and deeper.
I was so happy at the end when they acknowledged that Hancock was basically lynched. I was kind of expecting them to ignore his (perceived) race, since it had kind of been this unspoken subtext throughout the movie - something all the characters had carefully avoided mentioning. And then, Boom!
Overall, it was a fascinating mess of a movie. I can't believe it even got made, and that it came out as good as it did.

Oh, yeah, the chemistry between all these actors was fabulous. Hancock and Ray practically glowed
on the screen together, and Mary and Ray were just as good. The threesome was so obvious that
half way through the movie I was wondering what the threesomes would look like, and of course,
anticipating the slash. I haven't done a search, but if you know of a site that has fanfiction for
Hancock, I love to know about it. Also, this story is still awesome, grins. -SB
I must admit, I'm a bit conflicted about this fic. It's wonderfully written, as usual, and I very much agree with you that this could be the natural progression following the movie. I distinctly remember thinking how weird it was that Ray seemed A-OK with Mary being in love with Hancock and how much that bothered me. So at the same time, I didn't like Mary very much in the movie and I don't like her very much here. I kind of think it has to do with my kinda-sorta threesome squick and how she pushes for it in the fic. I don't know, I just feel bad for Ray, even at the end. So I feel like maybe I'm missing the point of the fic? *hands*
I debated with myself about commenting because I don't want to sound too forward (and please screen or delete if that's the case) or like I didn't like this. I really did enjoy reading it and it made me a bit thinky; thank you for writing it.

Fabulous! I've had this story open in a tab for a little while and finally got a chance to read it today. It was awesome (like everything you write) and has totally brightened my day. I particularly like that you have them using technology to overcome their proximity restrictions (i.e., the picture sending). I'm having a fun time imagining some near-future time when they invest in a webcam or video phone. ;)
Just read it and just LOVED it!!
I'm so glad!
[looking at your icon] Dare I hope that there might be some Hancock stories on this year's Yuletide?

Good -- glad you liked it! When the movie had that cell phone in the last scene, it pretty much demanded further technology use. And, mmmm, webcam.
Now, see, I think Mary is a terrible missed opportunity. Not that I like her in the movie -- there's nothing to like, really, except that she's clearly in love with both of them. (And that she says to Hancock, "I'm stronger than you. Oh, yeah." I liked that.) But she's kind of not there.
And for that reason, I would love to have a threesome with the three of them -- just, the way the movie sets up the alien anatomy, it would mean vulnerability and eventual death for both Hancock and Mary, which I don't like so much.
Actually, if you have a threesome squick, I'm going to take it as a compliment that there was anything here you liked, since the idea of that impossible threesome pretty much underlies the whole relationship here.
So thanks for reading and writing!

I have only just seen the movie so I'm pretty enthusiastic!!! I nearly went and redid my sign up to include it, but I checked and there's already 5 requests and 19 volunteers (http://www.yuletidetreasure.org/get_requested_fandoms.cgi), so we're bound to get a couple!
Oh, this is wonderful. I was pointed in this direction by MByrd (who said to mention she knows she owes you an e-mail), and I'm very, very glad I was. This was exactly what I was craving the moment I left the theater, and it very much fulfilled that need. (I requested Hancock OT3 fic for Yuletide, which is how MByrd found me. The powers of Yuletide stretch far!)
Fabulous characterizations, fabulous prose, and an overall fabulous story. I'm so glad this exists!
