The [[Seventh Doctor]] often cited this effect ([[BFA]]: ''[[The Dark Flame (audio story)]]''), describing butterflies as a "million multi-coloured pieces of time" and being called himself "the butterfly." ([[BFA]]: ''[[The Fearmonger]]'').He also contemplated a butterfly flapping its wings in [[Mettula Orionis]] and having great consequences elsewhere in the universe ([[NA]]: ''[[Transit]]''). The [[Eighth Doctor]] confused the theory, mentioning how a [[bat]] flaps its wing and causes a tropical storm.
