Airbus FBW - some technical q's

Hi folks!

Not being an airbus driver, I was wondering about the FBW system - especially what target values you set with the Sidestick (as that is what I understand you do)
So basically, if you pitch up to, say, 10°, and let the sidestick go, what will it hold?
Will it be those 10° or will it be a 1 G load?
If its pitch, then theoretically, as you speed up, the aircraft will start to climb and if you fly slower, she will descend.
If its G Load, then the aircraft should start a descent if you increase bank angle, correct?

Or is it something completely different?

Regarding the X axis, I guess you simply set the angular acceleration and if you let go at a specific bank angle, it will hold that.

Thanks,

Mark
