Summary: In the months following Voldemort’s first defeat, two women with similarly ambitious natures but very different ethics cross paths often enough that they decide to try walking together.


Rec Note: this is an older fic I stumbled across and positively adored. It's hands down the best Rita I've ever read, the characterization alone is worth a rec- but there's also fascinating politics, worldbuilding, gorgeous prose, and the relationship between Rita and Amelia is perfection.

Summary: The headmistress is retiring, and Rita Skeeter is sent to interview her. Oh, how she looks forward to that. (Podfic of 'Spinsters on a Sunday Morning' by tetleythesecond)

Rec Note: Tetley's SonSM has been a favorite of mine for some time, and I only recently discovered there's a podfic \o/ Sylvaine's reading is a complete delight, especially their Rita. Rita's internal monologue is just as snippy and vain and caustic as you'd imagine, and juxtaposed with McGonagall and Pince's soft morning? Art.

Rita Art on Tumblr by Toerning
Rating: G

Rec Note: A very sharp black and white image of Rita, I really love how pointy the glasses are, and how dramatic- sinister even- the angling and shading is. Somehow, for me anyways lol, it conveys her beetle-ness without actually making Rita small, she is looming over you, v nice \o/
