Something unexpected

Flip: something unexpected 

Flying: a moment of uncertainty

Then for the second time Huan spoke with words;

The great hound’s company had been particularly appreciated on the cold nights as they lay in the crook of tree roots in a wood, or sheltered in a cave in the hills, or out on the open plains, curled up together in the cosiness of his shaggy coat. And although it seemed at times to Beren that Huan would give him the odd knowing look, he had appeared an otherwise ordinary hound. So when Beren first heard Huan speak he was dumbfounded. And dire as their circumstances were then, Beren couldn’t help wondering in the back of his mind (and with a tinge of a blush) just how much of his lovesome whispers to Luthien he had heard! As Huan turned to leave, Beren could have sworn he saw the great hound wink.
