It took a second before Kagome realized that she had goofed, so to say. She had been distracted from the big screen TV that she had spotted at the back of the cabin. Wondering why he would need one to begin with while on a plane.
"Huh?"
"Isn't fear of flying and fear of planes the same thing?"
Blinking rapidly, she slowly shook her head. In all reality, they weren't the same thing. For all he knew, she could prefer to hand glide, rather than travel by plane. For example, even though she had never been hand gliding before.
"Not really. Aviophobia is a fear of flying, Pteromerhanophobia is a fear of being on an airplane. Two different things."
Tony blinked, surprised that after three months, not only was his daughter's English vastly improved, but only had the slightest of accents now when she spoke. He was also thrown into a loop when she tossed those two words out, without having any real problems.
"...thing alright?"
He grabbed the hand that was waving in front of his face, turning his attention back to his... daughter, it was still a little hard to admit that he was a father even if it was to himself, he took in her curious blue eyes. Eyes that were nothing like his own, or her mother, as far as he could remember.
AN: I did look it up. Pteromerhanophobia was listed, by Wikipedia, as a fear of being on an airplane. Aviophobia, also known as aerophobia and aviatophobia is usually used for fear of flying in general. Go ahead and look it up, or, try saying Pteromerhanophobia three times as fast! Other than that; read, enjoy, and review!
