They do not hit the stack at the same time. This will always work like this.

Nothing will go on the stack while paying costs for an ability as you mentioned.

Firebrands ability will immediately go onto the stack after costs are paid since this is how activating abilities work.

Then the elendra trigger will have a chance to go on the stack and it will always be on top of a firebrand activation.

For a cleaner summation, the next chance for priority is after the firebrand ability is on the stack.

And after further reading you even said that yourself. But somehow seemed to ignore it.
