hi!! I hope you’re doing well. I loved your interpretation on gate 12, could you talk about the connection of gate 12 and gate 22?
Hi! Gate 12 is known as “The Gate of Refined Expression”, while Gate 22 is known as "The Gate of Beauty and Charm":
Gate 12 (Throat Center) = Constantly in the process of refinement usually centered around the expression of their ideal artistry, whether it's abstract forms (Photography/Drawing/Visuals) or non-abstract forms (Poetry/Lyricism/Words) of art. "This is the world I see."
Gate 22 (Solar Plexus Center) = Constantly in the process of trying to understand their emotional connection to their ideal artistry, whether it's processing the emotional reactions caused from art or trying to understand the emotion that they're trying to convey through their work. "This is the world I feel."
Gate 12 with a solo activation could focus on the emotional connection in their art, but it would be flexible and would lead to different types of feeling in their work until their favorite style is found.
(Essentially knowing their craft, but won't know what it should feel like on delivery.)
Gate 22 with a solo activation could focus on finding different creative outlets until there's a match found that would help them with the delivery of the emotions that are trying to be conveyed
(Essentially knowing what emotions to use in their creations, but not knowing what their craft should be.)
Channel 12-22 would have a very specific intent of wanting their creative expression to have a signature feeling to it; Everything that is created from a Channel 12-22 or Gate 22 will have the purpose of recreating a distinct emotion in people that was once felt by them.

What I find interesting about Cass and ballet in Tynion's Detective Comics (2016) is not so much the communication or artistic expression aspect, but what it means for Cass' relationships to women.
From the beginning, Cass + ballet is heavily tied to her relationships with women. In Batman & Robin: Eternal #7, she first watches the ballet with Harper Row:
Ballet isn't just about "understand[ing] everything" (as Harper says), but about the physical and emotional connection Cass forges with Harper in this moment. The way their hands grasp onto each other symbolises the potential for ballet to form women-to-women bonds. Since this is N52, Cass' relationships with Babs and Steph have been sadly obliterated, so this is her very first connection to another woman.
Then, in Detective Comics #950, we meet Christine Montclair:
Christine is a ballerina who has been "handed" a key to the main stage by "the late Elaine Torsky," and who hopes to hand "that key to another young girl." Ballet becomes linked with a feminine legacy, one tied to "know[ing] exactly who she wants to become." The ideas of a female legacy and coming into one's identity strongly echo Cass' relationship to the Batgirl mantle, and the importance of female relationships to Cass' sense of self.
Ballet is, also, a storytelling medium - Tynion emphasises the importance of storytelling through #955's scene between Christine and Cass, where Christine reads her a story. She mentions that her mom used to read this to her. This is clearly an allusion to Shiva (since this arc is about Shiva), but more broadly this scene points to matrilineal connection through stories, something that Babs and Cass actually do in DC First: Batgirl/Joker. In that issue, Babs tells the story of her first encounter with Joker, which inspires Cass to do the same. Cass' mimicry - something she also does with Christine, copying her movements in the ballet school - showcase her desire for connection with other women.
(The book is also written by Carolyn Wu-San, another connection between women, stories, and family.)
And it's this connection to women that allows Cass to say her name, harkening back to Babs giving her her name in NML. This scene is also funny to me because Tynion created Orphan but he's aware the name is not something Cass actually likes - if anything, 'Orphan' feels like a punishment Cass imposed upon herself (especially in this arc, which doesn't reference that Orphan came from her dad).
It's just interesting that ballet and storytelling are mediums in which Cass finds an expression of herself, but it's not because of the communicative aspect - she never actually performs in front of anyone. Instead, it's the feminine community and legacy that allows Cass to discover herself beyond Orphan.
All this to say it's a shame Cass couldn't be Batgirl here because I really like the parallel of female legacy between ballet and Batgirl, but it gets lost without acknowledging Batgirl (2000) and DC First: Batgirl/Joker. But conceptually, Cass and ballet is about so much more than her 'communicating' via dance, and the role women and stories play in her love for ballet should be acknowledged more.
#cassandra cain#christine montclair#meta#YES i'm tagging christine YES this was an excuse to talk about christine#but more broadly i do think cass and ballet is pigeonholed into 'look how flowery and delicate she is' which is not at all what it should b#idk idk tynion's run had a lot of problems but i lowkey love it still#no other run has explored cass' relationship to art and no other run (besides bg 2000) has explored cass losing someone (clayface)#all this to say i'm a bit sad tynion's tec got less votes in my second best cass run poll than batgirls '22...#also bg 2008 beating gates of gotham....#but at least we all agree spirit world rocks spirit world sweep!!

I think she should've said "GTFO of my face, so I can have sex with my wife."

There is two ships in bg3 that I care about and it’s Shadowheart x Lae’zel and The Dark Urge x Enver Gortash.
However, that one post has me real curious about Karlach x Minthara…

okay, obviously, obviously, obviously, anything from idle champions should be taken with a grain of salt; it's a fucking clicker game.
however, it is an officially licensed clicker game. so i still find the ages listed for lae'zel and astarion interesting -- 22 and 350 respectively
naturally, it's hard to say that that's real, official canon, but i do think 350 is at least closer to astarion's actual age than what was listed on his tombstone
#look. astarion Could Not have been 39 pre-vampirism. he couldn't have been.#an elf under 100 would NEVER have been permitted to be a goddamn magistrate let alone one that wasn't even 40 yet#plus of course the dates don't line up with the year the game takes place#lae'zel being 22 sounds about right. i would've thought she'd be a year or two or more younger but 22 is the oldest i could imagine her bei#lae'zel#astarion#baldur's gate 3
