((I might be slow, but if you are interested, feel free to pop in if you're in Piltover!))
Down the road to Piltover Customs, a little apartment complex of sorts resides. The rooms stack low and high, some having weird windows and doors, some having what seemed like garages, though as the gates opened up in different ways, the contents showed normal living arrangements... or as normal as can be for the City of Progress. Things were always whirring and spinning and humming with technology and interesting delight.
One large door remained open. People passed by, but no one seemed to see the commotion going on inside. A little yordle with large ears paced back and forth, eyeing an array of metal scraps laying on the floor of her living room. Well, what was left of it. She had turned her living room into a workshop. It was small, but it worked. Her little ears bobbed up and down and she walked side to side, eyeing the strewn out blueprints hanging on the wall.
"No.. no.. I need to get that flux capacitor.. a new generator... replace the exhausts... Bah! I'll have to completely remodel half the wing holder, just so the energy flows in the right direction.. unless I want to blow myself up. That would be bad.. "
She mumbled consistently to herself, eventually sitting on the floor near the metal pieces. Upon closer inspection to any visitor, the pieces were laid out in such a way that they looked like a broken apart metal birds wing.
The admiral from Bandle City peeks into the hanger and starts to take tiny steps inside. Curiosity brought him to the place and he wants to know what kind of crazy techmaturgical things they're building.
One week in Demacia has made the tiny Titus into looking like a broified Demacian, now that his shirt, pants, sandals, and even his admirals cap is covered in Demacian emblems. An "EYE HEART BROMACIA" with Olaf and Jarvan sharing a Graggy is on front of his golden colored tee shirt.
Titus looks up into the ceiling when he trips over a part and falls face flat on the floor. He doesn't move an inch and lets out a quiet and groaning "ouch".
Rin turned on heel, startled form the sudden visitor. Her ears perked as she went to formally introduce herself, only to look up into no ones eyes. Adjusting herself, she looked around for the guest, only to find him flat on the ground. Along with his hilarious attire, Rin could hardly stifle her laugh.
"My goodness, forgive my manners. Hello there!" Rin squeaked between giggles, lending a hand to her fallen guest. She found Demacian folk to be a bit to haughty for her own tastes, but seeing this yordle decked out in the attire, it turned the country even more into a joke for her.
"Oh...hiya...nice place you got there..." Titus muffles to Rin and is still flat on the floor. He reaches out to something he can latch to and pull himself up but Titus incorrectly guesses Rin's shoes three times. Then his hand touches Rin's and after rubbing it to confirm, he pulls himself up again.
He looks around briefly and then turns to see Rin close and personal.
"I thought girl yordles are blue..." He ponders to himself when he looks at Rin curiously. "Then again, Rumble's blue, Kennen has hair and hooves...oh well."
"Umm...so you...work here?"
Titus has rarely socialized with people. The time in the Navy and his hobby time as an amateur astronomer really took Titus out of social times back in Bandle City and talking to Rin is feeling awkward and nervous to him. So far, he's trying to suppress the involuntary movement to scratch his back head.
Rin eyed him back curiously as he stumbled and looked up and down at her. She was sure she knew the question in his head, but she'd hoped he wouldn't ask like every other person. Yes, she wasn't blue, but many yordles were different colors now-a-days. Genetics were a mess with their race...
Rin smiled down to him, finally helping him to his feel. "Yes, I do work here... well, Sort of. This is where I live, and my work shop... all in one..." She looked over sheepishly to her hammock, clothes hanging off the side. She was a tidily messy kind of person... if that made any sense.
((really sorry about the delay, dear, been a hectic month for me!))
He looks around and sees a mess of inventions. The hammock and the pile of clothes hint Titus that she lives here. He notices a turrent that shoots bubbles. Why does it shoot bubbles, no one knows. For sure it makes a great weapons...against bacteria and sad people.
((BTW, fan of your art, Rin! :D))
"Oh! I can see some of your stuff there! You're an inventor! Like Professor Heimerdinger, right?"

"What am I doing here? did I have something specific to do? or am I just wandering around again? Maybe i should a-"
An open door catches Lulu's eyes as she was walking around in Piltover. A single peek inside was all she needs to pique her interests. Several gadgets and pieces of machinery on the floor, along with two Yordles talking inside.
This was exactly what lulu needed: a distraction.
With her largest smile, she quickly walks up to the doorway and knocks on the door exactly seven times. Despite the door being open to begin with, she waits outside for anyone to answer.
You find us funny, do you not? A source of amusement. Is that not so? With our pretty clothes, and our convoluted circumlocutions and our little silliness of manner and behavior. And perhaps we are funny... But you must never imagine, that just because something is funny,it is not dangerous.
((Hey! XD I love your fanwork Rin, but I'm not a complete fanatic! *compares himself to Ego*))
He grabs Rin's hand and shakes it. Titus shows off a big smile, excited to meet one of his kind in Piltover.
"Nice to meet you Rin! My name is Titus Flavius! A!-" He stops there. He can't just blurt out that he's an admiral in the Navy. He wants airships that he can arm. Rin, in Titus' view, is a key needed to get to Heimerdinger and to have Piltover Customs or whoever is a manufacturer of the airships around Piltover.
"Umm...astronomer. I look at the...cosmos and...uh...observe them."
Titus is a bit uneasy about Rin. Nonetheless, if he can befriend her, Titus would gain an ally needed for the airships...plus a new great friend!
"Titus, don't say that you're an admiral...just keep cool and maybe reveal it to Rin once you get the airships," he reminds himself in his mind.
Titus would hear the seven knocks on the doorway.
"Who's there?" Titus asks. Meanwhile he relaxes himself in his mind, "Thank goodness I didn't tell her."
Rin's ears propped up high and excited to have a new friend. "Pleasure to meet you, Titus! An astronomer, too? Fascinating! You'll have to tell me of your studies! What do you find in the cosmos? One of my robot friends in town looks upon the stars as well. I'd love to share notes with him!"
"Do you mind me asking, what caught your eye in my little shop? You must have had some idea while coming in tod---"
The knocking startled Rin, as her door was opened. She padded over to the door, peering to the side to see a large purple hat with a big smile greeting her. Rin giggled with delight.
"What a pleasant surprise! The champion Lulu, hello dear! Come in come in!"
Rin was shocked at the amount of guests she had today, though very excited! What a wonderful day! If only her glider looked a bit better than in shambles...

[Hello, Humdinger...]
Lulu happily skips inside after Rin invited her in her house. The sorceress peeks around the abode, noting the various metal objects in the area. A sudden realization brought a large, and surprisingly devilish, smile.
wooooooooow!! you're AN INVENTOR right??? JUST like HEIMEH- no...HamSandwit-no...OH!! just LIKE Heimerdingdong right?

((H..Hum..Di..Oh..Oh god no.. NO. NO ITS YOU OH GOD PLEASE DONT TOUCH ME I'VE BEEN A GOOD YORDLE OH GOD <3333 LULU!!! XD))
Rin chuckled at Lulu's interesting way to say her boss's name.
"Yes, I was just discussing with Titus here that I am the assistant to Heimerdinger.. or.. Heimerdingdong as you called him... hahaha!"
Rin watched Lulu eye her trinkets, excited to know what they thought of her small room of inventions. Though, Lulu's growing smirk scared her slightly... Something sweetly maniacal hid behind that smile...
But before he could finish the sentence, Lulu barges in. It looks like Rin is excited to see more visitors but for sure Titus' isn't...especially when he got reports of kidnapped children morphed into animals. But Titus keeps an optimistic and welcoming attitude.

NOTHING brought me HERE to be HONEST. but NOW that i AM here, I can POSSIBLY get ONE of MY DREAMS to COME TRUE!! especially SINCE miss RIN here's an INVENTOR.
Lulu takes off her hat and jams her whole arm into it, seemingly fishing around the inside of it until she pulls out a scroll of paper.
i LITERALLY dreamed OF this FOR SOME TIME, and I reaaallly WANTED it EVER SINCE.
The Sorceress rolled out the scroll, revealing...
...a monstrosity....
IS it POSSIBLE you can MAKE something LIKE THIS? if YOU can it WOULD be SOOO COOOL!
Lulu positively beams at Rin, despite the almost apocalyptic nature of Lulu's drawing.
