Rumble waves his hand at Jaslene, dismissing her offer to take the cat.
"No no, it's fine, he does this sort of thing t'me every day. You get used to it after a while," he groaned. Scraps mewed and nodded, seemingly agreeing with the blue yordle's statement.
"I don't recall him being this mean t'me in front of guests, though," he grumbled.
Maybe he just likes to ya know... play tricks in front of people who visit ya. Is that right Scraps? Hmm?
Jaslene looks up at Scraps again for a moment, taking a step back and leaning against the wall.
Who knows... maybe he'll be nicer to ya when peopel aren't around and all. Ya never know with people or animals I s'pose.
She pulls the safety goggles from her chest pocket, looking at them attentively while she waits for Rumble's reaction, spinning them around an looking at the reflections in the light.

"Right... I'll be sure to upbraid the little devil once you go back to yer repair shop," Rumble muttered. He probably wasn't, actually, either because he'd forget or because Cute Animal Syndrome would get the better of him.
Scraps simply meowed and smiled and played with the mechanic's mohawk some more.
"Don't worry 'bout me though. I've hurt myself worse in the ol' workshop before! I think." He glanced up at Scraps, who mewed and curled up on top of the yordle's head. "You get used to the kitty eventually, anyways." Rumble chuckled and pet his cat, who was apparently trying to sleep on top of his head.
Ya, well, Scraps got ya askin' for a medic once already, so I wouldn't be so sure about not needin' to worry 'bout you.
Jaslene places the safety goggles up on her hair, grinning at Rumble. That cat could so easily start bossing the Mechanic around, and he wouldn't even realize until it was too late.
Ya can get used to the cat, but can ya get used to the cat's needs? They can be quite... bossy. High-maintenance. Needy. That kinda stuff. And when they don't get what they want... well, yer scratches kinda tell ya what happens.

"Yeah, yeah, I already take care of him good 'n proper." Rumble picked up the cat from his head and put him on the kitchen table. Scraps stretched out and yawned, then curled up again and fell asleep.
"He ain't that needy, either, he's just a pest sometimes, but he hasn't done anything real bad yet," he muttered.
That's what they all say, an' then the cat is suddenly in control, gettin' whatever it wants rather than what it needs.
Jaslene drops the safety goggles over her eyes, looking around the suddenly orange space around her. It was starting to be more familiar than the normal color scheme of the world to her.
Well, I should probably start to go packin', I wouldn't wanna go on a very long trip without any of my stuff or any clothes or such, now would I?

"Yeah yeah," and Rumble rolled his eyes, not really taking Jaslene's advice into consideration. He picked up the plate with the salmon steak he cooked earlier and sliced it into small pieces, then he started to eat those pieces one by one.
"So where are you going on this long trip of yours?"
Oh, an old friend o' mine and I are just takin' a trip to Piltover. I hear just the boat ride is like a month so... yeah, gonna be a while.
Jaslene shrugs, looking at Rumble behind the orange lenses. She knew of what the mechanic thought of the yordles who lived in Piltover and the Academy, especially Heimerdinger. But... the city was still full of technological wonders, some which she could learn a lot from. Perhaps find something she can utilize to improve Mexxie with...
Hopefully I can find somethin' amongst the tech there that gives me ideas for future projects and all. Maybe somethin' to show 'em that better parts don't mean better equipment and all, stuff like that.

Rumble coughed and nearly choked on his salmon. Piltover. Of course. He drank a glass of water and cleared his throat before speaking.
"Right. That place. Ahem... Well, hope you have fun there," he stated in a devastatingly apathetic tone. Rumble finished off the rest of his salmon steak and started to make his way back to the workshop area.
"Anyways, I've got to get back to working, so... Don't get too bored on the boat trip, now," he chuckled.
Don't ya worry 'bout me Rumble, I can always work on my ol' box on the way, and my friend, Ron, is the bartender and I think owner at the Yordle and the Bard, he can always mix somethin' up to make it more interestin'.
Jaslene chuckles and continues leaning against the wall, glancing over to the sleeping cat now and then.
Also, I know ya hate Piltover an' all, but don't start thinkin' I'm gonna join the Academy or somethin'. I'm a Bandle City girl down to the bone, and it'll just be a trip for fun. Also, ya can get ideas from places ya never expect...
I dunno 'bout Ron though, he just might decide to live there... he's got stuff he's workin' on and Bandle doesn't exactly have the people who know the field he is after.

Rumble sighed and rolled his eyes. Geez, this girl sure likes to talk a lot, he thought. He dumped some cat food on Scraps' food bowl and put it next to the sleeping cat on the table.
"Hate Piltover? No, not exactly. Hate's too strong of a word, miss." He sighed and then poured some water in Scraps' water bowl. "Right, I gotta wake up my cat later then start workin' again, so my break's just about over. You go have fun in your trip, now."
Jaslene shrugs at Rumble's words, walking on over to the door and outside. There was nothing really she felt needed to be said, she didn't think the loner mechanic would care for goodbyes or such anyway.
So, she merely heads back home to the repair shop and continues fixing a couple of things before she starts packing... she wouldn't see home in months... would be an interesting trip to say the least.
