Rita Skeeter had a nose for news – scandal and gossip carried a luscious aroma that left her weak-kneed at her desk, emerald quill quivering.

She’d written mawkish articles praising Harry Potter after Voldemort’s defeat, with curt acknowledgement of the spy Snape squeezed onto the last page. After all, she wrote what the public wanted to read.

Her nose reawakened to the smell of scandal at the announcement of a private wedding between the two wizards. Was Potter ashamed of his illicit liaison with the Death Eater? Had Snape corrupted their bright hero? Nose twitching, knees weak, Rita began to write.

AN: Sequel to "The Public Has a Right to Know"


Rita Skeeter’s nose twitched. She licked her lips and dipped her quill in the emerald ink.

“Snape Abandons Potter – Ex-Death Eater ditches husband at Muggle’s funeral,” she wrote. This would make the front page.

Colin Creevey burst into her office, wiping sweat off his red face. “That crying hex you cast at Harry ...”

Rita looked up from her article as Snape glided through the door, confiscating Colin’s camera and her quill. He snapped the quill and smirked as the ink splattered, obliterating her writing.

“The public has a right to the truth, isn’t that what you believe, Ms. Skeeter?”
