When Mark Hamill gave Daisy Ridley an awesome birthday gift, he had no idea what he was starting.
On April 10, Hamill tweeted a photo of Ridley carrying the Luke Skywalker actor for Ridley’s 24th birthday.

The internet proceeded—in predictable fashion—to freak out. The adorable photo got photoshopped into oblivion. Adapting the photo to reinterpret a Michelangelo masterpiece and inserting the pair into the “Game of Thrones” universe were among the more innocent edits.
