Oh MARVELOUS!!! This was so great! I love Joan's practical-but-sympathetic attitude here, the way she takes the weirdness of the situation more or less in stride, and her quick assessments of all the other Watsons - their shared interest, and the varying versions of trauma that so many of them carry. It's got humor, it's got gut-punches, and really tight plotting. And the nicknames for the Sherlocks!! <3

This does make me feel worse about myself, though, that Joan can have such a full plate and still manage to get fic written on a tight deadline. Just one more way she's a role model.
