Clothes Make the Man (Naked People Have Little or No Influence on Society) (Sons of Liberty)
Title:Clothes Make the Man (Naked People Have Little or No Influence on Society)
Fandom Sons of Liberty
Pairing Sam Adams/John Hancock
Author's Notes Thanks, as always, to Smittywing for the cheer leading, the beta, and most importantly- the idea. This fic wouldn't exist if you hadn't suggested it (and let me talk you into watching Sons of Liberty with me). Title comes from Mark Twain.
“You need to appeal to those men as their equal. You need them to see you as their equal.” John reached out and tapped a finger on Sam’s chest. “You need to look like their equal.”
Sam followed John’s gaze and really looked at himself. His clothes were serviceable, if worn, nothing he had any complaint with. But he could see what John meant, could imagine what a man like Dickinson saw when he looked at Sam.
“I’ve changed my mind,” Sam said, after a moment. “I think I’d like to go back to Boston now.”
