Just a lil something I love about S2E5.
When Lucius made the portrait of Pete, he didn't put it in his sketchbook, he put it on the goddam wall. He made it big and he put it in a location where it was going to be seen. People are going to be walking by it and looking at it on a daily basis. (I have a head canon that at least one crew member probably greets it by name when passing by: "Hey, Pete.") Lucius made Pete--and his love for Pete--visible. "I just want you to know that I see you," he says, and not only that, but he wants to be sure others can see him too. This is Pete, I love him, I care about him. We don't see a signature (and strictly speaking, there's no need, because there's no doubt who created the sketch), but I hope to god Lucius signed his name to it on general principle.
Anyway isn't that what the show does, for all those folks who see themselves in it? Hey, LGBTQ+ folks, hey people of color, hey people of size and different physical abilities and disabilities, hey late bloomers and people who love weird hobbies and freaky outfits and celebrate arcane spiritualities: we see you, we care about you, we want to make sure other people see you too.

Taking someone's cigarette out of their mouth: Multiple meanings - used a lot in media to convey control, power play, very masculine, I'm your boss and this is mine now, get over it. Mildly flirty, look at me, all in your space and shit, seductive. You're not allowed to smoke, because I say so.
Putting the cigarette back in their mouth afterwards: Ground-breaking. Would be less erotic to just fuck honestly. Who does this?

lucius' biggest, most genuine smiles always being reserved for pete is something that can be so personal
