Edit: FirdgeBrilliance moment! It\'s never explained how exactly firebenders create fire; they\'re the only ones who can actually create the element that they control, and they have to be burning something, after all - maybe normal firebenders burn by separating and lighting the carbon and hydrogen particles in the air, whereas maybe Azula can actually create fusion using her powers, emitting electromagnetic radiation; in which case \'\'this makes perfect sense\'\'. \'\'\'\'\'Way\'\'\'\'\' too complicated to put on the main page, though.

the color of combustion flames is determined not by the principles of black-body radiation; but by the light emitted by carbon particles undergoing combustion. Stronger flame requires a higher amount of carbon particles; and the higher the amount of carbon particles, the higher the wavelength of the light emitted, creating a shift from the lower-wavelength end of the visible spectrum (blue) to the higher end (orange and red). This is why when you use one of them LPG stoves, the lowest flame burns blue and when you turn it up, it becomes orange or red. Try it and see.

Anyway, I\'m getting waaaaay off-topic here. It\'s clear this doesn\'t fall under any trope like I thought, so we\'ll just file it under MST3KMantra for ourselves and move along.
