Heinrich is clearly into being dominated (though in a pushy bottom
I'm leaning more and more toward Heinrich being not into being dominated so much as being into dominating a pushy bottom who taunts him, provokes him, and gets under his skin until he snaps and comes down on *them*, and they capitulate. So I actually think he might be a top, but a very specific kind of top that wants a lot of resistance. If you think the imprinting on charismatic bastards comes from Fritz, I think actually the prospect of doing what he couldn't do in real life, namely winning the encounter after being made to work for it, would get him hot like nothing else. The equivalent of putting up that obelisk ONLY DURING FRITZ'S LIFETIME.
I could be wrong. But this is now my headcanon.
And yes, Lehndorff is never going to push those buttons. Sorry, Lehndorff! You hang out with therapy-less Hohenzollerns, you're gonna run into some downsides.
