😐- the most embarrassing thing they’ve ever done

Once, early in his career, while he was building one of the first big Mechs, he trapped himself inside of the chassis. It was back when the brain bots were far less helpful and more like dog versions of Iron Man’s ‘dummy’. Minion was out running errands and when he came back five hours later he found 4 bots playing by themselves and 2 trying to ‘help daddy’ (the rest had given up long ago). In their attempts to follow Syx’s muffled directions they had transformed the situation from ‘the panel fell and I can’t move it myself’ to ‘I’m welded inside of this robot and these fuckers won’t even bring me water and I’m certain I’m now dying’. One bot was helpfully tormenting Syx by pouring water on the outside of the half-built robot and ruining the wiring. 

When Minion finally freed his Sir, Syx refused to even talk about it and had the entire project scrapped. Whenever the incident is brought up, Minion has to suppress laughter under the duress of Syx’s death glares.
