Background[]
Prior to the events of Tiny Heist, Ti had lived at the Tektra, a setting with a community of Tik-Teks that lived together inside the technology drawer of the Teen Center. Ti had lived a sheltered life growing up and had not been allowed to see the outside world. Growing up, Ti had gained a love for explosions and blowing things up and using her tech to create small explosions.
History[]
Big Little Crimes[]
In Big Little Crimes, Ti was seen welding a makeshift Mad Max-esque-like 18-wheeler vehicle made of parts of old calculators, tablets, and pads. The vehicle was meant to be part of a supply train, given as an act of goodwill by the Tik-Teks to the heapers, to help the community of dispossessed heapers who had recently lost their homes. Ti's mentor Gyro had then approached Ti with the schematics for the vehicle and had begun to chastise Ti for adding bombs to the vehicle. Ti protested Gyro's complaints, stating that the heapers may need her bombs to defend their homes the next time it was attacked. Ti then reluctantly removed the numerous bombs that she placed on the vehicle, much to Gyro's displeasure. Gyro reminds Ti that Tik-Teks are scavengers and survive by not making a fuss. Gyro also tells Ti that the world is extremely dangerous, that Tik-Teks barely scrape by, and that any loud weapons and gadgets that Ti makes could alert the stewards of the house of the Tik-Teks' presence. Ti argues that they could use their technology to improve their own lives and go on adventures.

Gyro[]
TI-83 respects Gyro but she wishes that the Tik-Teks would be more daring and adventurous, and that the Tik-Teks could use their technology. While Gyro does deeply care for TI-83, she doesn't care for her recklessness and love of explosives. Gyro wishes that Ti would understand that the Tik-Teks are scavengers and that she doesn't want the Tik-Teks to make a fuss.
