It's an honor, and he's glad to protect the king -- and his best friend, and... maybe something the people have no idea about -- with his life, but he's so used to being a bounty hunter, a mere sword for hire, that suddenly having an actual respectable position in the kingsguard certainly required a lot of inner rewiring. ]

No. Not even owl shit. [ He adds as a small afterthought; ] My lord.
