Sarah Michelle Gellar and Lin-Manuel Miranda might be obsessed with each other.

The “Hamilton” and “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” stars have spent much of the last two months tweeting GIFs of themselves at each other.

The saga began when Gellar tweeted a photo of herself signing the wall at the Richard Rogers Theatre in New York, where “Hamilton” is playing, on Feb. 9. “I got to sign @HamiltonMusical wall!!@JMunozActor ty for being so kind to my daughter (she wants to know when we are seeing the show again),” Gellar wrote.

Miranda responded to the tweet with the heart-eyes emoji, prompting the “Buffy” alum to write “Ok I’m done. I’ve accomplished all I need to in life. I’ve been noticed by @Lin_Manuel.”

They spent the next few days trading GIFs of themselves, expressing excitement at having been noticed by each other. On Feb. 10, Gellar tweeted “oh Lin stop it (don’t stop).”

The interaction kicked up again on Wednesday when Gellar tweeted a photo of herself on the cover of Entertainment Weekly’s “Buffy” 20th anniversary issue with the caption “The Chosen One.” Miranda responded with a GIF from the WB series featuring Alyson Hannigan saying “How lovely to see you again.”

Miranda and Gellar have since spent the rest of the week trading tweets and photos, proving that the reservoir of Sarah Michelle Gellar and Lin-Manuel Miranda GIFs is as bottomless as their mutual admiration.
