the plot of avatar the last airbender wouldtve happened at all if zuko didnt jump to wild (but correct) conclusions when he saw that beam of light. imagine if he was just like “oh shit is that the aurora borealis” and iroh was like “no its the aurora australis in the south” and then zuko was just like “whatever lets ignore it and keep looking for the avatar in the ocean”
Zuko: The Aurora Australis? In this part of the world, at this time of day, located entirely at that one village?
british person: *sees dialga and palkia appear and create a space-time rift in the sky that will destroy the entire country* roight. wots all this then
*the pokemon version of satan comes out through a rip in spacetime* Brit 1: About that time, eh ol’ chap? Brit 2: … Brit 2: Righto
