Couldn't resist.

Oraaange, hello! 🧡

Oh man, this is such a great question and I think about it a lot. Lieu prefers mask off, hands down. The vulnerability of it, the exclusivity - knowing that he's the only one who gets to see beneath that mask. Nothing compares to being able to touch Amon's skin and kiss his mouth properly... And he adores those fleeting moments where he can see Amon smile. It's such a rare thing and he lives for it.

However, I've got to note that he does love seeing Amon's shadowed eyes behind the mask, especially when his pupils dilate and roll back when he's pleased... He loves Amon's eyes and the mask highlights them beautifully.

Amon, meanwhile, is more complicated. (Surprise surprise.) In a vacuum, he prefers mask on. It allows him to feel in control. And he gets off on the idea that Lieu is kissing the mask specifically, showing his devotion to the image and the cause he has created.
