Elliot is far from being the loudest personality in the room but that doesn’t mean he is passive to his surroundings. His demeanor is typically wry, understated, and prone to asking questions before jumping to conclusions, although he isn’t the type to hold back criticism if he feels it is deserved. Elliot has a dislike for authority, a holdover from his younger edgy teen phase, and will disregard instruction if it doesn’t match his internal logic but Elliot doesn’t make a spectacle out of it. The thought of people seeing him cry is really not something Elliot is comfortable with and blatantly goes against the cool loner persona he tries so hard to cultivate. He dislikes discussing more niche hobbies and interests he has out of the belief that everything he does is a little cringe always. His self-image is heavily tied to his mood, failure and regret can quickly spiral into ammunition for self-loathing which then can lead to severe depressive episodes if not properly addressed.

Elliot has two modes: “on the clock” and “off the clock”. He is a hard worker that knows how to focus on tasks, even get lost in them, and enjoys making things to see if he can do it. In a crisis he tries to maintain a rational mind and take the most pragmatic approach to problem solving. However, Elliot is also the type to not get serious until he sees a reason to. His generally laid back personality and willingness to flip flop in discussions to do whatever amuses him the most as well as egg on people making inane leaps of logic to see how out there it can get can make him seem like much more of a slacker than he really is.
