Look at the detectives y'all, I'm going to jail
New Bridgerton AU I cooked up before midterms: Bridgey spouses and company are part of the Danbury Investigatorial League
I watch way too much B99, CSI, and most recently Bones so I love the group dynamics of a bunch of geniuses and nerds that are also deeply stupid so this was born. Keep in mind I don't actually know how private Investigation firms work but this is a guess and I refuse to make them into cops ACAB always
So the cast is of CAPTAIN AGATHA DANBURY, Edwina (rookie detective), Kate (Agatha's mentee), Penelope (Agatha's assistant), Genevieve (fabrics and materials expert), Phillip (expert in botany and all poison related), Sophie (informant turned linguistics expert), Lucy (future college student/intern bc she's not in the au yet), Simon (former financier and investor turned finance expert), and Michaela Stirling (field detective), all work in different departments for hire and usually once a year a Bridgerton gets involved but the point is Bridgertons are NOT the star of this show. It's a crime procedural baby and these weirdoes are the stars.
Can't believe the first part i wrote was like 3 years into the au and it's a Halloween heist
