Happy to? Boc's disbelieving whimper came with a withering look, and a wonder as to whether or not Stark really knew the meaning of the word. Or perhaps it just meant something different here, because it certainly wouldn't be a word he would ever choose!

I wouldn't want to have to put him through any trouble or extra work on account of me, of all things! Especially when he's nice enough to let me in his class at all! I'm quite content just to learn about some of the food; it's all so different! From what I'm used to, back home, in the Lands Between. There's much to learn, really. I'm lucky just to be able to!"
