(From class: Harry Potter & His Contexts, Spring 2017)

I do not own these characters.

What is your favorite color and why?

My favorite color is green, of course. For me, the color represents fresh ideas and a taste for the unknown–two qualities I am proud to possess.

My lovely Quick-Quotes Quill is a particularly bright shade of green, and it inspires me to write only the finest pieces of hard-hitting investigative journalism.

Just the other day, I was interviewing the Minister himself (I am one of the only reporters at the Prophet trusted for such high-profile interviews), and he expressed admiration for my Quill. He's fond of green as well (that bowler hat he wears!), which is testament to the fact that only the most elite and powerful appreciate green. Now, why he pairs his hat with the horrible color purple, I couldn't say. In fact, I heard that he has a great deal of trouble maintaining a presentable look, but of course you didn't hear that from me.

Yes, I think green is a fine representation of my prowess as a revered journalist. There is simply nothing better.

Signed,

Rita Skeeter
