There's a wince that Bumi can't hide when Aang mentions Ba Sing Se.
He grew up with the story of how his mother saved his father's life that night that Azula struck true. Grew up looking at the scars that were left as a constant reminder. Sometimes Bumi even asked to hear the story, because of how brave both of his parents were in that moment.
The older he gets, the more horrified by the stories Bumi becomes. And now, when he's faced with his actual father at around the right age...
"Plants. I think they're just out to get us," he says in an attempt to lighten not only the situation, but his own mind. "Come on, let's go see if Mister Spiritual has any amazing insights for us."
