I also wonder if Sammie stayed in contact with his siblings?

[theanimearchivist]

How much y’all wanna bet that Sammie has a song named after his cousins and all the people who protected him? I can picture one of his song being named The Delta Blues or Delta Slim’s Blues or even The Conjure Song or The Conjure Woman’s song for Annie?

Me personally, I’d like to see Stack stroke Annie a lil bit 😈! I know smoke would be livid if her heard Annie being louder with his brother than she ever was with him 🤭

Chile…Stack would buss Annie down & Smoke would be ready to raise hell !!!!!!

Stack would go into it thinking he big dude & Annie gonna shut that shit down 😭😩 but he’d still give her the business!

Who would read this if I wrote it ? 👀

The affection between Black men in Sinners!

Smoke and Stack hugging and saying ‘I love you’ before they part ways in the corn field

Stack’s excitement and cheering as he listens to Sammie’s music while the two of them cruise down the road.

Delta Slim playing with Sammie and mentoring him by explaining the historical and spiritual significance of music to their community.

The way Smoke and Delta and all the others place their bodies in between Sammie and Remmick when the cards are laid before them, holding out an arm to stop Sammie from sacrificing himself; insisting that they’re going to die before they let Sammie leave through that door.

The protective and desperate way Smoke clutches onto Sammie in the final act; Remmick burning up in front of them and Smoke wrapped around Sammie to shield and comfort him and provide another barrier between them and the vampires just in case.

Stack showing up, telling Sammie he’s been following his career the whole of his life, collecting his albums because that’s his little cousin! He’s known him, they’ve known him, and isn’t it amazing to see how far he’s come?Supporting him from a distance, but supporting him nonetheless.

The option Sammie is given at the very end, and the way his choice is honored. Because as much as Stack (and Mary) love him, theirs is not a possessive love. It’s the selfless kind, that they will not try to hold onto Sammie past his time, but instead make sure he knows how important and loved he has been in life.

Y’all think the twins were ever separated before.

Annie on My Mind

Pairing: Annie/Stack

Summary: Stack can’t stop thinking about Annie.

Stack had Annie on his mind. He couldn’t stop thinking about her no matter how much he tried to be present. He thought about her as he sat between Mary and Smoke during supper. He thought about her as he rinsed the day away and to his surprise despite the lukewarm bathing water, Stack realized he was getting hard.

Stack could only remember three times he was so turned on that he may take the risk of stroking himself out in the open for the other residents of the Delta to possibly see. The first time he was thirteen and developed a bit of a reputation for being a Peeping Tom. He would often find a way to watch some of the older girls when they were preparing for bed. He remembered how hard his little pecker got watching his neighbor Eula Mae soap her body and wash over her firm breasts. He couldn’t wait until he was old enough to touch them. The second time was before he went to war and Mary finally let him see her naked. They’d been kissing, this was the only thing they’d done at this point, and Mary said she wanted to try something. She pulled down the straps of her dress to reveal perky tits that fit perfectly in Stack’s palm when she let him touch them and put his mouth on them. The blood quickly rushed down south, and Stack had to unbutton his trousers to relieve the pressure. Unfortunately, that’s all Mary wanted to try. The third time was now. His dick was pointing to the sky like an arrow when he started using the sudsy water from his lukewarm bath to stroke himself. When he closed his eyes, he saw Annie’s.

First, he pictured those powerful brown eyes staring into his soul. Next, he went from her eyes to her plush, full lips.

“Slow down, Elias. I don’t want you coming too quickly,” he pictured her saying. He did slow down. He went from pistoning his right hand that was currently wrapped around his dick to slowly gliding it up and down his length.

“That’s it, good Elias. I’m glad you can follow directions. That’s gone make things a whole lot easier.”

Before his fantasy could go any further, he was interrupted by his brother calling for him to get out the tub so he could wash too. Stack stopped stroking himself and with a frustrated sigh dunked his body in water that was now ice cold. It cooled his overheating skin and shriveled his erection. Hopefully, he could reunite with Annie in his dreams, or maybe he would see if he could catch her in town again.

A New Face in the Delta: A Stack and Annie Story

Pairing: Stack/ Annie

Summary:

There’s a new face in the Delta and Stack thinks he should make himself known.

The twins vividly remember the first time they met Annie. It was a couple of weeks after they got back from the war. They were staying in between Uncle Jed’s and Mary’s mother’s house. This week it was Mary’s mother and she sent both boys into town to pick up a couple of things from the Chow’s market. Stack was the first to notice her. Clarksdale was a small community so it wasn’t nothing that word spread around about two new arrivals from Louisiana. Annie was inspecting a green bell pepper when she caught Stack staring at her and their eyes locked. He couldn’t look away. Her eyes, that was the first thing Stack noticed: there was something about the way her they didn’t seem fearful like most people’s when they see he and his brother, they were firm, powerful like she didn’t take no mess, they were kind too. Stack let his eyes leave hers and without shame he let them roam the rest of her. She has smooth, pretty dark skin that he bet smelled like cocoa butter and full lips that looked soft. She was wearing a pair of blue chandelier earrings and a stack of beaded necklaces the same color. She wore a short sleeved dark blue dress with a low collar that showed a healthy amount of pillowy looking cleavage that he would love to lay his head on.

“You gone speak or just keep staring at me.”

Annie’s body was fully facing Stack now only the produce stand between them. She had a basket in her right hand and her left hand was on her hip. Those beautiful, kind eyes Stack had been admiring were now accompanied by a raised eyebrow and a look of slight irritation. For the first time in his life, Stack was rendered speechless. Usually, it was Smoke who was the less talkative of the two of them.

“Well.” Annie asked with pursed lips.

Stack finally spoke and put on her signature charm.

“I’m sorry, baby. I couldn’t help myself. I haven’t seen your gorgeous face ‘round here before,” he grinned at her. He made his way around the stand of produce separating them.

“Elias Moore, ma’am.”

Stack gave Annie one of his signature dimpled smiles and offered his hand. Annie didn’t take it but she did return his big smile with a half one.

“I know who you are. You and your brother have quite the reputation. Are you the one they call Smoke or are you Stack?”

“I’m Stack, ma’am,” he answered with a bit of a chuckle.

“Ma’am huh, I reckon we the same age. The only ma’am is my grandmama and she ain’t here now.”

Stack sucked his teeth and finally put his unshaken hand down.

“Alright, so what can I call you?”

“Annie.”

“Nice to meet you, Annie. How you enjoying the Delta so far?”

“Fine so far, can’t say I’ve been here long enough to form an opinion.”

“Well, if you ever need an escort around town, my brother and I would be happy to show you. I promise we ain’t as bad as people say.” Stack reached for Annie’s right hand, the one with the basket, and attempted to kiss it.

She pulled it back before he had the chance, but she didn’t seem angry. She seemed more amused than anything.

“I’ll do that. It was nice meeting you, Stack.”

“Likewise, I hope we see each other real soon, Annie.”

Annie took the bell pepper she’d been holding and made her way to the register. Stack watched her walk away and his eyes stayed on her until she left the market. He licked his lips.

“Who’s that?” Smoke came up behind him with their groceries in hand. He now along with his brother was watching Annie walk away.

“A new face in the Delta.”

Stack didn’t take notice, but his twin was now staring at Annie with the same lustful eyes.
