#i just. i trust peter and vince and strongly feel they won't do that. we've had deaths. the tragedy lies somewhere else now

I was milling around on YouTube the other day and there was an old (end of s4) Bob talking about Saul/Jimmy video, and the fact that he said that if Kim did die, Jimmy “wouldn’t be able to go on” is both heartbreaking and reassuring

do you remember when jimmy said to the kettlemans, let's parachute down from cloud cuckoo land? that's how i feel reading comments insisting kim is going to die. other than the fact that they've somewhat openly hinted that isn't her fate (that things besides death can be tragic), it's definitely been made more and more clear for the past couple of seasons that he would not make it if she died. it wouldn't be decay into saul goodman, it would be complete collapse. i don't think he'd bother sticking with the law, i'm not sure how he'd keep going at all. that would be too much. that would be, be with me always - take any form - drive me mad! only do not leave me in this abyss, where i cannot find you, the kind of heartbreak time could never mend, devastation. he said it himself, he can't do this if anything happens to her. he'd disintegrate if he lost her to violence/harm. we didn't really need the proof of him putting her life before his own to know that, but he did, so it only galvanizes this more. i don't know what's going to happen to her, or to them, but i feel sure that whatever it is, she's going to have to live with it, as will he. and maybe that will rip our hearts out even worse. still, where there's life, there's hope, and never doubt there's love.
