Jackson Still pals.
Housman Comrades.
Jackson Like whoever they were.
Housman Theseus and Pirithous. They were kings. They met on the field of battle to fight to the death, but when they saw each other, each was struck in admiration for his adversary, so they became comrades instead and had many adventures together. Theseus was never so happy as when he was with his friend. They weren't sweet on each other. They loved each other, as men loved each other in the heroic age, in virtue, paired together in legend and poetry as the pattern of comradeship, as the chivalric ideal of virtue in the ancient world.

I think only a man can say "They weren't sweet on each other" in the same sentence as "They loved each other, as men loved each other in the heroic age, in virtue, paired together in legend and poetry."

To be fair, I cut off the end of the speech, where Housman does basically go "...okay so I might be gay for you."
