What is "peery"

Usage examples of "peery".

Flatnose Jack figured Peery would be the next to slingshot himself to oblivion.

He even had a standing bet with two of the mechanics, Lackland and Pirtle, that, sooner or later, Peery was gonna do an unplanned space walk during one of the times the uglier aspects of war came to the station.

During downtime, when the rest of them were getting drunk, or playing cards, or sleeping, Peery would stop whatever he was doing when a report came over the uplink broadcasts, his eyes too close to the screen and his body frozen in a rictus trance as he watched and listened.

Funny thing was, Peery never seemed to understand any of it, not a single damn thing.

He remembered the moment, his wife and daughters forcing smiles to cover the fear they all felt that sunny morning before Peery shipped out.

He glanced at Peery, waving his arms and running his words together as he fired them, machine-gun style, at the dumbfounded oiler.

The belly of the Steelhead was so close, Peery could see the bolts and hatches and the tell-tale port of the Troop Pod, still sealed.

A moment before wild collision was inevitable, the nose of the Steelhead took a sharp drop, leveling the ship with the bay and allowing Peery to see one of the Stingers get tagged by a shot from the station.

The Stinger vaporized off to the left, close enough for Peery to feel a rush of heat as it came and went.

A response Peery did not want to give, but heard his voice deliver even before it came boiling from his mouth.

As the pilot turned to come back, Flatnose Jack waved at Peery, a dark grin on his face.

In no time, Peery was trailing behind the pilot as they entered the Steelhead.

As he lay there listening, Peery felt his insides grow cold with the realization that it was all lies.

The first thing Peery did was depress the button on the sending unit and lock it in place.

The pilot spun his chair at the sound of the opening hatch to see Peery emerge.
