Joe Keery and Gaten Matarazzo on set of Stranger Things 5 One Last Adventure: The Making of Stranger Things 5

It is my beloved @cross-d-a’s birthday today! Cross has, quite literally, been my muse for like the past three months, but she’s also just one of the most genuine and kindest people I’ve ever met in my life, and I’m so so so happy that once upon a time, she was born, so that I could meet her in 2021! She is the one who welcomed me into the DMBJ fandom and gave me a passion about writing again and also is just someone who will listen and support and encourage you to the moon and back, and so I wanted to give back just a little of the happiness that she’s given me (and so many others!) in life. I’m not exaggerating when I say that she is a pure spark of good and joy and wonder in the world, and I hope that she knows how much she is loved, because there are a lot of us out here who are much richer for having known her. Anyway! Cross! I love you!!! I hope you’re having a great birthday, and I’m so happy that I get to celebrate this one with you!
