Just finished re-watching the opening scene of s2ep7 of Elementary and I gotta say, the writers must have really wanted to push that Joan × Mycroft agenda on us 'cause let's be honest here, the real Joan would have NEVER smiled and been happy to see him when their whole surprise meeting is right after seeing Sherlock, her very private work-partner and friend and who she used to be a sober companion of and personally know how long it took until he was able to trust the safety of the AA meetings enough to be able to share anything in there, storm out of a AA meeting, clearly distraught, after Mycroft just completely violated both Sherlock's privacy and also his delicate trust in the AA meetings that took him a long time to build and is extremly important for his sobriety
