detective show ask: I’m curious which other show you’d drop Jonny Lee Miller and Lucy Liu into
I would find places for them both in the third season of Perry Mason OF WHICH WE WERE MOST CRUELLY AND UNJUSTLY ROBBED ahem.
Yeah, the more I think about this, the more I like it. I could, of course, find completely unrelated roles for them; they're both very good actors with impressive range. But they have years of experience doing wordless communication with each other and I think that it would be a shame not to use that. Liu will be a mysterious and alluring business owner presiding over the Smoky Nightclub without which no hardboiled noir is complete, and JLM will tend bar for her.
I'm fairly neutral on the question of which of them propositions Perry; I would also accept neither or both.

Anthony Bridgerton and Kate Sharma in Nights Like This by newtonsheffield (Moomin_94)
There’s only one thing to do when you’ve had an argument with your boyfriend during which he called you a frigid bitch right? Get wasted with your sister and best friend and trash talk the fuck out of him.
“He is a fucking dickhead, Kate!” Edwina slurred, vodka rolling down her hand, onto the carpet.
“And his name’s fucking Basil!” Sophie agreed
“I can’t believe I wasted all this fucking time on that absolute twat!” Kate groaned, the room spinning. “He actually fucking said the words, I don’t think I even find you attractive anymore. Who the fuck says that?! I’m hot as fuck! And my tits are amazing! He should be so lucky!”
“Fucking wankers!” Edwina called
“Pure twattery, honestly.”
“You know what you should do?” Edwina slapped Kate on the back of the head. “You need to show him exactly how fucking hot you are!”
“Yes!” Sophie agreed! “Take your tits for a night out, break up with him, and kick him in the balls!”
There Kate is, 30 minutes later, with her head a little fuzzy burying a little further into the trench coat wrapped tightly around her in the cold before she reached out and knocked on the door in front of her. Her hands fumbled over the tie of her coat as she heard footsteps on the other side of the door, tugging the edges apart as the door opened. And then her brain freezes. Because than man staring down at her tits straining a little against the tight black lace, his mouth in a perfect O of surprise isn’t Basil Grimston.
The man took a shuddering breath. “You aren’t my Chinese food are you?”
Anthony had agreed to look after his Brother’s cat at his apartment for three days, the last thing he expected was to open the front door expecting an Uber Eats driver only to find the most stunning woman he’s ever see wearing nothing but a trench coat and lingerie. And he truly didn’t expect the murderous look on the man across the hallway’s face when he said
“Kate?!”
