What is top/bottom dynamic for Elleo in the au?
This is a tricky question. I could reduce it to "Elliot usually tops" but their power dynamic is a bit more convoluted than that.
Elliot usually tops because Leo wants him to, not because he's "the top".
You could say Elliot is a service top with a big praise kink.
Leo is lazy and lets Elliot do all the work usually, he's a bit of a pillow prince, but he's the one who actually "directs the play".
They don't reverse their usual roles in bed, Leo is still the Lord and Elliot still the obedient knight who'd do (almost) anything to please his lord (and be praised).
I think in the fic you'll see them switch a few times anddd quite a bit of fellatio? Because I like it and Elliot is very good at it eheh (and Leo really likes seeing him on his knees).
Hottest top and hottest bottom? Don't have to be from same media!
Elliot and Leo aside, who's your favorite character in the AU? Who's the funniest and who's the easiest to write? ✍🏻
This is a very nice question, thank you! For favourite I'd say probably Lottie. She doesn't get a lot of screen time but I really love her as a character and I like to imagine her little shenanigans at the castle. I'm also very fond of a character we made up: Noel. He is one of Vincent's cadets and I kiss his forehead everyday (I'd like to say more but he'll be a plot point later on, so just know he's a good boy). Oswald, Lacie and Lottie interacting are the funniest to write lol. For single character I'd say probably Leo. Elliot is the easiest alongside Gilbert! (You didn't ask but the most difficult to write are Levi and Jack afhofegfe)
Not AU related, but how and when do you think it started with Ciel and Sebastian?
If you mean when in the manga miss Toboso decided to make them canon, that's when Ciel is officially recognized by the Queen and gives his speech to Sebastian about revenge uwu
If you mean when and how I started shipping them, I actually don't lol I enjoy art of them, it is usually really beautiful, and I do think they're basically canon at this point (I have eyes. It's there printed on paper.) but I prefer Cielcest over SebaCiel! Hope this is not a let-down for you tho :<
