... as ..."
Hi Tolkein
The problem was either with the gap between the word really & the question mark or (more likely) whatever coding you used to type the word really. Only very simple coding is allowed here. If you click on (some html is ok) above the comment box you will see what you can use. :)


That's ok - I enjoy doing quotes. :)

1 and 2, leave the 3rd: “Once upon a time all the world was ruled by darkness. There were no stars and no moon, never mind the sun. The world was black and gray. One day as the Star Prince sailed by on his rainbow starship, he saw the grayness below him and wondered.
»Oh my, what a sad planet this is! Give me just a moment, I'll paint you right away,« he thought.”
― Milan Petek Levokov, The Star Prince paints the World
Thank YOU!

... as the cover falls my hawk makes a curious, bewitching movement. She twitches her head to one side then turns it upside down and continues to regard me with the tip of her beak pointing at the ceiling. I am astonished. I've seen this head-turning before. Baby falcons do it when they play. But goshawks ? 𝘙𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 ? I pull a sheet of paper towards me, tear a long strip from one side, scrunch it into a ball, and offer it to the hawk in my fingers. She grabs it with her beak, It crunches. She likes the sound. She crunches it again and then lets it drop, turning her head upside down as it hits the floor. I pick it up and offer it to her again. She grabs it and bites it very gently over and over again: 𝘨𝘯𝘢𝘮 𝘨𝘯𝘢𝘮 𝘨𝘯𝘢𝘮. She looks like a glove puppet, a Punch and Judy crocodile. Her eyes are narrowed in bird-laughter. I am laughing too. I roll a magazine into a tube and peer at her through it as if it were a telescope. She ducks her head to look at me through the hole. She pushes her beak into it as far as it will go, biting the empty air inside. Putting my mouth to my side of my paper telescope I boom into it: 'Hello, Mabel.' She pulls her beak free. All the feathers on her forehead are raised. She shakes her tail rapidly from side to side and shivers with happiness.
