gay subtext? in MY priest???

it's important to remember that jud's two lowest points were when he killed a man in the ring at 17 and when another priest got killed and he got blamed for it so he's freaking it for most of wudm because we are spending time with him on the second worst weekend of his life but he's boyish and cocky with langstrom pre-wicks and cocky in a smug cat-got-the-cream way one year later and he even manages to pull some moves on blanc for a minute while actively losing it when they first meet so all signs point to him being a huge flirt and a quietly confident menace when he's not having the worst day of his life i fear

Okay so obviously jud and hot priest have a lot in common (hot, priest, faithful because they understand the raw sides of humanity and are disillusioned by any myth of purity) but I feel like jud and fleabag actually play a similar role in the lives of blanc and hot priest because they're both seemingly lost souls who everyone else is distrustful of but they actually have the biggest hearts of anyone in the community and remind hot priest and blanc of the potential good that exists in the world they've given up without forcing them back into it (faithlessness for hot priest, faith for blanc).
