Next we have Roland Fortis, a fanatical Chasseur paladin and combat extraordinaire. Roland is the quintessential nice guy; strong, curious, friendly, and brave. In spite of being seemingly oblivious to the havoc he causes, Roland is quite intelligent and sharp as he succeeds in cornering Vanitas and Noe, going as far as putting them on the backfoot.
What makes Roland swoon-worthy, in our opinion, is his open-mindedness. When Noe, instead of fighting Roland, decides to put his faith in his humanity and approaches him to talk things out in spite of the proven formidable danger he poses, Roland is impressed. He easily acknowledges Noe when he defies his preconceived notions of what a vampire is and admits his change of heart without reservation, being able to absolve himself of all bias (cue swoon). In fact, Roland sincerely declares Noe a friend, which is further proven when he teams up with Noe and Vanitas against Moreau in the Catacombs. With little to no regard for the difficulty this could pose for his position, Roland takes his new perspective on vampires and unapologetically runs with it, showing a Noe level of curiosity and Noe-like fascination (and Noe-esque desire to become best bros). Talk about a guy willing to take a stand. What a catch, right?
This mutual respect, shower of praise, and admiration is certainly mutual on both Roland and Noe’s part. While Roland is easily able to admit his admiration and praise for Noe, Noe just as eagerly is able to reciprocate his desire to connect with the Chasseur. Full of positivity, sparkly vibes and rosy delight (you can literally see it if you squint), Noe and Roland are the kind of affirmative BrOTP we all hope to be!
