What's happening here?

"The scythe is such an impractical weapon." Jeanette remarked lightly to Bruce. "I haven't really seen any of the Dark Trio in real action, and I couldn't for the world imagine how they can do so much killing with such a weird weapon."

Bruce chuckled at her remark.

"The scythe deals damage by getting ahead of the enemy, and pulling it back towards the wielder. What does that tell you about the situation?" Bruce asked Jeanette.

They were both chatting away while patiently waiting for me to finish my awed study of Death God.

"The situation? The wielder's enemy must all be trying to run away if the killing method is by pulling them back. But there are so many other more effective ways to kill a running enemy." Jeanette argued back.

Bruce shook his head with a smile.

"Tell me, would you use your favorite hunting rifle to kill a rabbit, or a high powered machine gun?" Bruce asked her.
