"...'Technically'?"
I should have expected some sort of catch. It's quite pessimistic of me to phrase it this way, I'm well aware of that, but the great tragedy of dealing with life as a Hunter is that there is always some form of catch. Even if it's a petty, trifling little thing that doesn't matter in the end, it's still going to be there. Some unexpected wrinkle in the cloth or wrench in the gears, that I would never be able to seem to learn would be coming.
Honestly, I'm really thankful for the fact that they aren't always important catches. Too many of those and I might just start to gel my hair into spikes and talk about destroying illusions all day.
As if that could happen.
"What's 'technically' supposed to mean, exactly?" I queried, "I can understand it if we were talking about swords or something more specified, but doesn't 'polearm' cast a wide enough net as a term for something to just be one or not be one?"
We could argue the semantics of it all day, but in the end it had to be an either-or kind of thing, one or the other. I couldn't imagine much of an in-between, outside of maybe the realm of... I don't know, a very long-handled hammer? That, maybe, but I doubted it was that.
A Bec de Corbin and a Lucerne were basically the same thing, after all. She'd not hesitate to call it such.
