man, that whole thing in stickyfic where it’s all “aw man they were so hot and gushing so much lubricant it started leaking through their closed panel and started dripping all down their legs”
like I understand about the whole self-lubricating trope but this happens so much and it implies people think the panel over this apparently leaky-ass orifice wouldn’t have some kind of goddamn rubber gasket around the edge
or that if this is a thing that happens nobody ever gets one installed to fix it, like nobody ever thinks to do this
the moral is never read robot fanfiction if you’re an engineer because it will be so upsetting
