The real tragedy of a new Stranger Things season being released is how quickly it's over with. Having all those episodes drop at once is great and all, but you end up blazing through them in the blink of an eye.

The good news? Once you've finished watching the cast being adorable together on screen, you can at least continue to watch them being adorable on social media.

On Tuesday morning, David Harbour did exactly that. He shared a short video of his onscreen BFF Winona Ryder, swearing in between takes.

Harbour described in the caption what it's like to work with "the greatest movie star" of his generation.

"She is so vulnerable and personal and intimate and complex in her work," he wrote. "And between takes, while I stew and stomp around ‘staying in character’, she is light and makes me laugh and helps me realize that life is short and I should enjoy it.

"And I do. Because of her."

No, you're the one welling up.
