Small person

Usage examples of peewee.

Then I shifted back to spike antenna and went on calling Peewee while moving across the pasture and pretending that I was on Venus and had to stay in touch with base because it was unknown terrain and unbreathable atmosphere.

Two men came in, shoved Peewee aside, strapped my wrists and ankles and ran another strap around my middle, binding my arms.

When I came to, they were gone, I was unstrapped, and Peewee was sitting by me.

I could hear my heart beat, I could hear Peewee breathing, and presently I could hear her heart beating.

We backed against the far wall, Peewee behind me with her hands on my hips.

Our next remarks were too confused to repeat but finally Peewee was convinced that I really did own a space suit, that in fact the only reason I was sending on the space-operations band twelve hours and a quarter of a million miles back was that I was wearing it when they grabbed me.

So the opportunity and Peewee both slid past while I was torn between common sense and upbringing.

I would not have been surprised if she had spoken English, since Wormface did and since Peewee had mentioned things the Mother Thing had told her.

If she directed a remark at Peewee alone, it was usually just birdsongs to me but if it was meant for me, I got it.

What had been just a question of using my greater strength to force Peewee to behave was now an unsolvable dilemma.

It was an odd fight, with the Mother Thing gentle and loving and sensible and utterly firm, and Peewee throwing a tearful, bad-little-girl tantrumand me standing miserably by, not even refereeing.

We went where the suits were, while Peewee carried Madame Pompadour and half carried the Mother Thing.

I explained, while Peewee looked big-eyed and the Mother Thing sang queries and approvals.

I thought that Peewee would rather die on the way than fall back into his handsand I was inclined to agree.

Getting me sealed in was cumbersome, as the straps had to be let out and then tightened to allow for the Mother Thing, and neither Peewee nor I had bare hands.
