Titus nods at Teemo for a moment and then bursts into laughter. Usually, he would be slapped back with greater force or be under court martial if he were to slap a superior. But Titus deserved it, especially with the smirk.
"Bwahahaha! Don't take it so heavily, Teemo! I'm just...hahaha!...well...hahaha!...teasing!"
Titus continues to laugh hysterically before dying back down. He pauses for a moment and restates Teemo's orders in a serious tone.
"But you know your orders. You were supposed to arrest Veigar. He was under criminal charge and now he's walking like a free yordle. But...oh well. I guess it's also for the better too."
He gives Teemo a nod and a smile, agreeing to go to the Junkyard.

((Personally I don't trust in-game sizes very much... I recall someone commenting on how Brand was as tall as a tower in-game.
Imo it would be Veigar < Rumble < Teemo size-wise.))
Rumble shoots a very short but menacing glare at Teemo for calling him his nickname in front of Veigar. He then proceeds to march towards Veigar, trying to make himself look as tall and intimidating as possible. The mechanic's glare actually shot sparks that could probably power up a light bulb.
"Excuse ME?! First of all, it doesn't matter whether Tristy's made up of trash or not as long as it works, and I know it does 'cause every time my machine meets head-on-head to ya you get pummeled down to smithereens faster than a three-legged disemboweled rat that fell down in the middle of a horse race!"
Rumble marches so close to Veigar that his eyes were actually only three centimeters from the wizard's. The mechanic continuously pokes Veigar in the stomach to emphasize his point. Either Rumble was very very stupid, very very brave, or a mixture of very very both.
"AND WHADDYA LAUGHING ABOUT NAMES FOR, SHORTSTACK?! So what if the scout calls me 'Bull, I'll call you whatever I want, wherever I want, whenever I want, ya shorteared, shortfurred, tiny scrap of-"
And as soon as Teemo mentions Rumble's workshop as a possible meeting place, Rumble suddenly goes through what might be the fastest and most drastic mood change ever recorded in history. Rumble turns around very rapidly and laughs at Teemo's suggestion, thinking it was a really funny joke instead.
"HAHAHAHAHA! My workshop as a meeting place?! That's the funniest thing I've ever heard you say, Tee! Since when did ya get so good at making jokes, bud?" laughed Rumble, who was absolutely unaware that the suggestion was actually serious as the mechanic was wiping his eyes from tears of laughter.

Teemo clenches his fists in anger at the laughter, and his left eye starts to visibly twitch. Two seconds after the yordles finish he speaks.
"Let me get back to you on that, 'Bull..."
Immediately he grabs Titus by the scruff of his neck and pulls him violently, smashing his head into Veigar's. He then stands over their downed bodies and clamps a hand around each of their necks, seething with ferocity.
"The both of you are going to shut your traps and get your butts in gear immediately or I'll beat your skulls in! And one more word about Rumble or his nickname, and you can consider yourself a dead yordle."
He then releases the two and gets up in Rumble's face, glaring sternly into his eyes.
"And don't think it's so funny, 'Bull. We're going to your workshop to finish this conversation or else."

Rumble's face turned as pale as a ghost as he stared at Teemo dejectedly. The mechanic raises his arms in protest against Teemo's decision to venture towards his workshop.
"WHAT?! You're serious?! B-but, b-but... I can't have him in my workshop!" Rumble exclaims, as he points a finger towards Veigar. "He'll destroy all of my work! He'll steal all of my blueprints! H-He'll, he'll... He'll do a whole lotta bad things to my workshop that I don't even want to begin thinking about!"
Titus could feel the force slamming him into the ground. He grunts in pain as Teemo stood over the two. Once Teemo lets go, he gets up and removes the dust from his muscle cuirass and looks at Teemo dead in the eyes.
"Teemo! Loosen up! And...."
Bull? That's something he would never hear about Rumble.
"Why...uh...Bull?" is all the puzzled yordle admiral could ask.

Veigar gets up, more pissed than ever and his head was aching a lot. However, he tries to not show signs of that.
"I agree with the mechanic, if we have a discussion like this in that place, i will destroy his useless trashcan that he calls "Tristy"... however if i wanted to steal a blueprint, I would steal a TRUE INVENTOR as Heimerdinger"
After say that, the wizard rubs his head to ease the pain, he was bleeding a bit, but that can pass unnoticed thanks to the magic that covers his face.
Post by The Mechanized Menace on Mar 27, 2013 5:45:36 GMT -5
"...Excuse me?"
Rumble clenches one fist as soon as Veigar mentions Heimerdinger. The mechanic slowly turns around and walks towards Veigar, fist raised as if he was going to punch the wizard. However, Rumble instead releases his fist and drops his hand to his side and forces a smile. He was still extremely angry on the inside, though, and this was quite apparent because the temperature of the room actually rose by two degrees Celsius.
"So you'd only trust a true inventor, then? You mean the kind that does nothing but make cute, little itty-bitty turrets as he keeps licking the feet of the longlegs? Lemme tell you a little something, mister tiny..."
In one swift movement, Rumble lashes out an arm and grabs Veigar by the neck. He pins the wizard against the wall, and he actually manages to lift Veigar off the ground by an inch. One of the few traits about Rumble that were not well-known to the public was that the mechanic was actually stronger than the average yordle, due to the years of machine work in his past. Rumble glares at the wizard as he speaks with an impressively menacing tone.
"First off, you'll never be able to destroy Tristy even if you tried. There's a reason she's still standing today, for I've built her and reinforced her to withstand every single possible attack I could think of. I probably do more damage to her than anyone else ever did whenever I upgrade or replace one of her parts." Rumble actually managed to set fire to his machine when repairing her once, but he decided not to include that detail. "Second of all, your plans to take over the world, or anything, for that matter, have failed, and will continue to fail so long as I am here. I know how magic works, because I've studied it to build machines that specifically counters magicians like you, and they work really really well. Do not try anything funny, or I swear you will regret it more than when you were stuck helpless in those Noxian prisons."
Rumble lets go of Veigar, glad to let out his anger. Rumble walks over to the mayor's mailbox and drops the blueprint there. He then walks back to the group and sighs, his mood having been significantly calmed down.
"Right, all I needed to do was drop of that blueprint. Where to next?"

Teemo pauses, staring blankly at the three for some time with twitching ears. The other movements around them had stopped, meaning that the officials around the building were probably stopping to see the commotion. It was time to make a tactical retreat. He racks his brain for all of ten seconds before he thinks of a new location for there discussion, one where an argument like this would definitely go unnoticed. He puts a firm, but somewhat gentle hand on Veigar's shoulder and gazes sternly at the others.
"Hey, this is starting to get out of hand. I agree with Veigar on this one that the conversation should be moved elsewhere, and I think I know just the place. You've all heard of the 'Branded Rogue', correct?"
He squeezes his hand slightly, hoping Veigar would get the message that he should stay as calm as possible.
Post by Tiny Master of Evil on Mar 27, 2013 13:01:43 GMT -5
The menaces of Rumble were filled with ignorance, but Veigar didn't said anything about that. The wizard wanted to keep calm, mainly because if he didn't, Veigar was going kill someone and finish his deal with the mayor (and that was not good for him).
When the scout put his hand on the shoulder of the wizard, Veigar gets annoyed... more than he was already... Without looking anything in particular the wizard replies the question of Teemo.
"I have no idea what is a 'Branded Rogue', but anything sounds better than a junkyard... and... REMOVE YOUR HAND FROM MY SHOULDER!!"
Post by The Mechanized Menace on Mar 27, 2013 18:35:08 GMT -5
Rumble puts a hand to the bottom of his mouth and giggles. "Oh, the 'Branded Rogue?' You mean that place where everyyordle goes to get drunk?"
The mechanic leans against a wall and crosses his arms. "My only complaint is that the inn's a public place, and bringing ol' tinyhat along might cause a lot of trouble. If you could find a way to obtain a private room without causing too much commotion, though, that'd be great."
Post by The Swift Scout on Mar 27, 2013 19:35:52 GMT -5
Teemo groans a little and crosses his arms, looking very unimpressed and exceedingly irritated.
"Yeah, yeah, so a lot of yordles go get drunk there. I just so happen to have acces to private quarters in the attic where nobody will even care to come look for us. There's a window that we can use to get in, if you want to avoid the crowds on the first floor."
Post by Tiny Master of Evil on Mar 28, 2013 7:51:15 GMT -5
Veigar gets more angry when the blue yordle refers him as "tinyhat"
"Rumble if you keep calling me like that, i shall not doubt in to kill you... outside the limits of the city of course"
Veigar was annoyed by the presence of the officers who were looking at them and hearing everything. He didn't cared about where to go, he just wanted leave the legislative offices quickly.
"So, We can LEAVE this place RIGHT NOW?... and why the mechanic have to accompany us?"
Post by The Mechanized Menace on Mar 28, 2013 14:36:44 GMT -5
Rumble crosses his arms and scowls at Veigar. "Because believe it or not, whinyface, I am also in charge of organizing the defenses of the city, and anything that concerns the safety of the city concerns me."
The mechanic buttons up his overcoat and puts on his hat, then he turns towards Teemo and nods. "Right, let's get outta here."
As far as Titus knows, how could a mechanic with social problems with humans and is seclusive be in charge of Bandle City defenses? Probably Rumble is asserting the authority he doesn't actually have. Titus sighs and taunts at Rumble.
"We've already lost if you lead the defenses. You're a mechanic, not a commander."
Post by The Mechanized Menace on Mar 28, 2013 15:16:31 GMT -5
Rumble sighed and tapped his foot impatiently. Perhaps the admiral misunderstood him. Rumble wasn't leading an army, he was setting up the equipment and operating the machinery to prepare the city against a possible void assault.
"Listen, Titus, methinks I should clarify things to you. I'm not leading an army personally, I'm setting up equipment to prohibit the void from entering the city and to render their attacks to be as harmless as possible should we actually get an assault. My position lies with the safety of the city," the mechanic states. "Now, if we were actually to go in a full-out fighting war against the void, who would have a bigger impact then, me or the generals? I'd like to think me, but I think I'll go with the generals on that one," he smirks.
