But if that's the trigger, I assume that means it has to be held around where the blade is? That axe head my make aiming difficult unless it folds in some way. I think I know what's happening. I'm imagining Morning Star's gun barrel to be quite long, as there are some halberds that have a long spike at the end of the shaft. You might be seeing it as much shorter, similar to Sky's Halberd. Essentially he'd be gripping the barrel and trigger, with the axehead facing upward.

And Ren was an extreme circumstance. While they're similar, I think Ren's sudden unlock of both was a bit more reasonable since Grimm were rampaging through his town, which is a couple degrees below being locked in a pantry. Your circumstances may work due to Angelo going through a traumatic experience, but it's not as bad as being a small child in the middle of a massive Grimm attack, you know? Yeah, I see what you mean. I do imagine his family being upper-middle class, but perhaps it being similar to how Jaune got a taste of his own Semblance briefly before actually unlocking it. It just kind of sucks, because I had his religion being a factor, as people view those who've unlocked their Aura and Semblance are considered "angeli terreni" (earthly angels), people God have hand chosen to fight Grimm (who are considered to be demons or evil spirits), hence why he'd become a Huntsman, seeing it as almost a divine privilege to become one. Wow. I have at least 3 OCs that would slap his shit for handwaving their hard work to divine intervention.
