This is actually a horrifying thought. Once one dies... is her... head going to be removed from their shared body? Since it's dead? My belief is that when one dies, the other one will die very, very shortly after, because they do share most of their organs

This is one of the most uncomfortable scenes in American Horror Story, a show with a shitload of uncomfortable scenes (spoilers obviously).

In a dream in Freak Show, when one of the conjoined twins dreams her sister dies, and she’s just lying there while her literal other half is stone-dead, and she can feel herself rotting from the inside out. She also cries because she can’t hear her sisters thoughts anymore, and she’s alone for the first time in her entire life. Fucking grim.

That was such excellent acting. They really felt like two different people. And for once in AHS, they got a happy ending too

Probably my favourite season along with Apocalypse and 1984, everybody in Freak Show were fantastic in it, especially Chiklis and Wittrock.

the only way I see one twin being able to live on is if the other passes from something that only hurts the one brain, and even then im not sure if the other brain would be able to fully control the body

There are also some autonomous part of that brain that regulate hormone and organs...
