Rachel Kiley is presumably a writer and definitely not a terminator. She can usually be found crying over queerbaiting in the Pitch Perfect franchise or on Twitter, if not both.

There’s nothing quite as joyous as the meeting of two queens.

The celebratory tears were felt throughout the kingdom when Queer Eye’s Jonathan Van Ness met Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner for the first time at the VMAs over the weekend.

Besides being known for Queer Eye, JVN was also the fabulous host of Funny or Die’s Gay of Thrones, which offered hilariously irreverent commentary on the popular show from 2013 up through the series finale earlier this year.

But despite being so closely associated with the pop culture megahit, JVN is only just now meeting some of the key members of the cast.

And fortunately for the entire world, the meeting between him and Sophie was caught on camera.

The Queen in the North herself cries out his name as she spots him in the hallway, leading him to absolutely shriek in obvious shock and awe as tears fill his eyes.

"You don't know my name!" he exclaims.

We’re honestly just so happy for the both of them. Happy, morbidly jealous, those are totally similar emotions, right?

It was only a week ago that JVN met another mega-Thrones star, Lena Headey of House Lannister. Via video chat, the two dished on Game of Thrones’ Emmy noms in a special post-mortem episode of Gay of Thrones.
