Pedro Pascal will always have love for longtime friend Sarah Paulson.
The pair's friendship dates back to 1993, when both were 18 and living in New York City. When Pascal, 50, couldn't attend Paulson's Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony on Dec. 2, he still made his presence, and appreciation for the star, known.
During the tribute portion of the event, Amanda Peet read a speech written by Pascal.
Peet, 53, began, “This is what [Pedro] wrote: Missing this makes it too hard to find words. I can thank you both for my ridiculous fortune. Two birds grabbing sticks I never knew were for me and anyone in your heart.”

“To Sarah, I’ll just say there is no me without you,” Pascal’s written words continued. “Without you, I wouldn’t believe in the moon or the sun in the sky. You are the opening in the road. You are the decorated forest, and most importantly, you’re my friend, and I’m yours eternally.”
“I’m so f------ proud of you. More, more, I love you more. Period,” his tribute concluded, before Peet then delivered her own.
The Last of Us star previously recalled meeting the American Horror Story actress well before both became household names in the entertainment industry.
“I met you, Sarah Paulson, in September of 1993, my first month in New York City,” Pascal told Interview magazine in 2014. “I was really lucky because my first friend at NYU lived in Brooklyn, Kristen, and went to high school with you, so your guys’ posse kind of adopted me.”

The Game of Thrones alum continued, “I remember all of us going to the Upper East Side. I insisted that we all go see that movie Fearless.”
Paulson, in the joint magazine interview, replied, “Yeah, Fearless. I’ll never forget it as long as I live.”
