"I'm Rodny Steinwick." He replies to Kara. [She cares what my last name is. Could there be a chan.... Oh, she's just being polite.] Rodny smiles a little. A smile that means nothing more than 'I see your politeness and am being polite back'.
At Rory's statement, Rodny smiles and accepts it as a compliment. Then he thinks, [I hope I'm not coming off as conceited as the Rodny on that show.]

Ms Johnson walks into the room.
Ahh I see you all have gotten to know each other a bit. Good, good. Please have a seat and we will all get to business.
One everyone has found a set she continues.
First off, I'd like to congratulate the one who went to the museum on a job well done. You were able to recover a fairly dangerous artifact and were able to do it with little disruption to the museum itself, and everyone else involved believes it was a freak animal attack, rather then suspecting something else.
I have another mission for you all, one that required a few more people to be involved.
We have been getting reports of a band of orc bikers terrorizing a few small towns in the southwest part of the state. The local authorities have tried to stop them but aren't quite up to the task. So we're sending you all out to deal with them.
Please understand, these are not people like you and I. They are orc's and as such will show you no mercy and will accept none. They live by a different code of conduct then you and I do. They only understand brute force.
Do not try to reason with them or convince them to go away, the only way they will even listen to you is if they are tied up and have a gun in their face.
Are there any questions?

Rory blinked. Ms. Johnson was quite attractive in her no-nonsense business attire, and while the thoughts of ravaging her ran through his head, Rory couldn't help but be irritated by her sudden request and even more irritated by her no-nonsense demeanor.
"Y'know, forgive a man for bein' narky, but ye sound a bit off yer nut. I came here lookin' to study wizardry. Yer tellin' me I'm on the A-Team now? That's a hell of a steever!"
[sblock=OOC]I'm using Everyday English and Slang in Ireland as source material for Rory's slang. Narky means 'cranky'; steever means 'kick in the backside'.

That's more then fair. But one of the reasons behind offering such instruction is so you can use what you learn to aid the people around you.
If you wish for nothing more then simple instruction and training we can arrange that to happen.

Rory snorted a laugh at Ming's statement. The abnormally large Chinaman had complimented, then insulted him, in the same breath. "Aren't you a treat, y'old codger?"
Rory directed his attention to Ms. Johnson. "Look, I'm just flah'd out from the bus trip. Whatever the job is, I'll take it... do we have to go right now? Can we hit a Mickey's or something on the way?"

Kara listens patiently to Ms. Johnson’s brief rundown on the next operation. While Rory gives her a hard time, she pulls out her Glock, pops the clip, clears the chamber and checks the action. She puts the spare round back in the chamber, let’s the slide return back home, and holsters it again. She again, unsuccessfully attempts to blow that strand of hair from her face and replies, gesturing to include Nick, “We can handle firearms.”
Indicating Ming with a nod of her head, she continues, “He has melee prowess covered.” The gesturing with her hand again to draw everyone’s attention to Rory and Rodny, she asks them politely, “What skills you bringing to the party? Charms work on orcs?” She turns back to Ms. Johnson and asks, “Some equipment for them? Should we discuss a plan before charging off?”
Kara, feeling that she has spoken more than she intended, rests her hand back in her lap.
