"Did I hit my head? Uh, well, not today, I didn't! Last time I did though was three days ago I think, 'cause I tripped over a huge piece of metal."
Rumble looked behind him and immediately spotted the bombs. He turned back to Trist and broke down in even more nervous laughter.
"O-oh, those? Those are, ha ha, those are just, er, um..."
As soon as Teemo popped his head through the door and inquired about the bombs, Rumble recoiled and took a step back. His thoughts swirled around in a frenzy, but he eventually gave up and decided to admit the truth. The mechanic sighed, then he began waving his hands wildly in the air and ranted.
"Okay fine! So Ziggs came over for whatever reason and he threw a flippin' bomb out my window, which blew up nearly half the junkyard! What's with everyyordle flyin' to my workshop all of a sudden, anyhow?! First I've got that cat, then I've got that weird fangirl who showed up yesterday, and now I've got youse three! Is my workshop becomin' the town meeting place or somethin'?!"
By the end of his rant, Rumble had his teeth clenched, his eyes shut, and his ears being pulled down by his hands. After a few seconds of silence, he let out a huge, exhausted sigh and began ambling towards the kitchen where Ziggs was, his mood suddenly seeming to have improved greatly.
"Whew, that felt great! I'm gonna make a sandwich right now, 'cause I'm starving. Anyone else want some lunch?"

Ziggs popped out from the kitchen and waved at the two yordles in the doorway. "Hey guys! Some party ths is, huh!" He was all smiles, though he somewhat guilty about driving Rumble insane. "Sorry about the little explosion out there. I can go clean up the street if you want..."
He was nervous about seeing both Teemo and Tristana here, as he considered them to be the local law enforcement. There would probably be a million questions for him, and all of the answers added up would likely get him booted from Bandle.

Upon noticing Ziggs in the back, Teemo's expression brightens up and he waves with a step forward, accidentally shoving Tristana to the side slightly with a, "Oh, hey Ziggs!"
For a moment he looks over his shoulder at the Megling to give a quick, "Sorry about that, Trist," before stepping closer to the Hexplosives Expert. Obviously he's happy to see his Piltovian friend again after such a long time.
"Hey pal, how've you been? Managed to beat my high score yet back at the Gears? And what's got you all the way down here in Bandle?"

Rumble walked back into the workshop room whilst munching on a sandwich, because apparently he can prepare all sandwich materials and stack them neatly together in less than 20 seconds. He takes a quick glance at Teemo and thinks to himself how creepy he's being to Ziggs, which is extremely hypocritical of Rumble to do in the first place.
"Oi, make sure you don't trip over anythin', Tee," he warns. Rumble idly walks to Trist and remarks his thoughts quietly to Tristana, except it wasn't really that quiet because his voice could still be heard within Teemo's earshot range.
"Hmm, Tee's bein' a bit... I'unno, quite upbeat to Ziggs here, eh?"

"Hey Teemo!" Would be the short response the Scout gets. When Rumble mentioned Teemo's excitement, she whispered back "You could say that, but that is really none of our business, is it? In any case, while I'm here anyway, you don't mind if I don't bring the scraps back?" She was sure he wouldn't mind, but better safe than sorry

Ziggs took a step back, put off by Teemo's sudden extremely positive reaction to him. There was little reason for Teemo to be acting like this. Unless...
Ziggs squinted, remembering the haze of memories from Teemo's visit to Piltover. "Yeah, The Gear..." he said, half-heartedly. "That was uh, fun..."
He put that aside for the moment. His voice returned to normal as he said "As for why I'm here, it's to think of and work on a little project with Rumble here. Some kind of weapon that Bandle could use." He grinned, hoping Teemo wouldn't ask further questions about weaponry.

Teemo blinks, noticing the moods of the others present all of a sudden. His own cheerfulness dissipates rather quickly, diminished to a smirk and chuckle at Ziggs' comment. "Weaponry huh? Just be a little careful then. This isn't exactly as sturdy a lab as your place back in Piltover."
The scout holds the smirk, though there is a bit of tension in his eyes. Inside, he's having conflicting feelings on the sudden jubilant outburst. It wasn't very professional of him at all. What made him suddenly act that way?

"Yeah, sure, take watcha want! I never run out of anything at the ol' junkyard here, Trist," Rumble chuckled.
He turned to Teemo after the remark about his "laboratory." "Hey, does a lab gotta be sturdy for it to be a lab?! It ain't a proper workspace until things start blowin' up in yer face," he laughed.

Ziggs smiled, happy to here that explosions were going to be involved. "Hehe, don't worry about any more explosions you hear from this area for a couple of days or so." He turned to Rumble, adding "I mean, if you have that kind of time."
Ziggs remembered how long it had taken him to construct his Mega Inferno Bomb. Two weeks of intense work and fizzling explosions before he finally perfected the formula. They already had all the explosives they needed, it was just a question of their application in this project.

Teemo smirks and nods to Ziggs. "Alright. I'll go, uh... inform the mayor then that you're here. Don't hurt yourselves!"
The scout gives a wave to the other yordles in the room, saluting to Trist, and then steps outside, closing the door behind him. For a moment he gives a heavy sigh, then puts on a serious face and starts to march out to inform the mayor.

"Thanks Rumble! If you need me, I'll be picking scraps until the box is full. Good luck with the tests, Ziggs!" Said Tristana, before picking her box up and running off into the scrapheaps again, picking through the scraps for the perfect bits of wasted metal.
((The narrator wishes there was more to talk about))

((School started, lotsa work and fun stuff to do, whoohoo! I should get that Icathia lens post out of the way too that I've been putting off for... about forever, heheh...))
Rumble leaned against the door and grabs onto Teemo's shoulder before he walks too far off. He chuckles and grins at Tristana and Teemo. "What, youse both not gonna stay here for some fun? I thought ya liked explosions, Trist! And Teemo, I'm sure the mayor already knows full well about Ziggs' presence here since he most likely went through Bandle's gates, so no need to wander off, now," he laughed.

Ziggs was itching to get to work, as he didn't want to spend too long in Bandle City and potentially miss something important at the academy. "Maybe we should let them go..." he said with a hint of 'kick them out already' in his voice. He stepped over and waved in Rumble's face to get his attention. "We should get to work soon if we want anything done!"

Teemo halts when Rumble's hand grips his shoulder. He stays in the doorway, looking over his shoulder to the mechanic. Rumble's offer is somewhat tempting, and he furrows his brow for a moment to think about it. When Ziggs first speaks the words feel like a needle going into the scout's head. He cringes and turns back to the outside, speaking loud enough for Rumble to hear.
"Eh, I should probably make sure the mayor knows, 'Bull. You guys have fun though."
This time he makes his way forward despite Rumble's grip, brushing off the other yordle's hand. He didn't want to stay any longer than necessary, feeling unwanted.

Rumble placed his hands on his hips and shook his head in disappointment. "Hmmph, seems like some yordles don't like havin' a bit of fun here and there. Ah well, guess we'll let them both go."
He turned back to Ziggs and looked at the pack of bombs. "Right, so whaddya got in mind fer building?"
