Think of every person you have ever had a relationship with. We at the Observer are here to inform you that it is probably not as heart-warming as the bro-mance between Sirs Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen.

And to be honest, we are perfectly fine with that.

All month Mr. Stewart has been Tweeting out pictures of him and Mr. McKellen leading up to the pair’s final dual performance in Waiting for Godot and No Man’s Land. The show unfortunately closed last weekend, thus ending the Twitter saga of their New York adventures.

Now all we have left are the pictures. Look at them, smile, and wonder in the back of your mind how Professor X and Magneto are happier than you and anyone you’ve ever loved.

Skeeball! (Our trip to Coney last fall made for so many great pics, more to come) 15 shows left! #gogodididonyc pic.twitter.com/Km1rBUIKNE — Patrick Stewart (@SirPatStew) March 19, 2014
