Maybe he has a traumatic brain injury, or another improperly treated condition. It's an odd set of symptoms he's displaying, but delusional complexes are often religious. The belief in this as heaven is difficult to explain, though...what kind of hellhole would he have to have lived in to think being dragged here is some kind of reward?
Halsey realizes she's closed her eyes and is pinching the bridge of her nose, and forces herself to look back up at Nux.]
Fine. Stipulate this is Valhalla, despite the shortage of Valkyries and Vikings. Have you seen any other of the "heroic slain?"
[The sarcasm quotes are distinctly audible. She might not be willing to argue with a madman, but she's not going down without some fight.]
