One common theme could be power dynamics. Given Rita's role as a journalist and Harry's status as a famous wizard, there could be a play on who has the upper hand in their relationship. Another might be secrecy, as their relationship in a 'lemon' context might need to be hidden.
Yes, there are some. You can start by looking on fanfiction websites like Archive of Our Own. However, the 'lemon' aspect often implies some mature content, so make sure to check the ratings and tags carefully.
I'm not really into lemon fanfictions as they often go against the original spirit of the 'Harry Potter' series. However, you can try searching on some specialized fanfiction websites. Just be aware that such content might not be in line with the family - friendly nature of the original work.
Obviously, Harry Potter and Rita Skeeter are the main characters. Harry, the famous wizard, is often the target of Rita's tabloid - style reporting. Rita, on the other hand, is a journalist who is always looking for a juicy story.
In a fanfiction, Rita Skeeter might have a change of heart after realizing how much harm her false stories can cause. She could start writing accurate and positive stories about the students at Hogwarts, like highlighting Neville Longbottom's growth from a shy boy to a brave hero, which would be a really interesting take on her character.
One problem is that it can distort the original characters. Rita Skeeter is portrayed as a rather unlikable character in the original series, and creating a romantic or sexual relationship with her in a lemon fanfiction goes against the general perception of her character. Also, it can be seen as disrespectful to the original work of J.K. Rowling, which is aimed at a wide range of audiences including children.
Perhaps there is a plot where Rita Skeeter discovers a deep, dark secret about the wizarding world that she can't resist reporting on. However, in doing so, she puts herself and others in danger. Harry and his friends then have to step in to save the day and also keep Rita from causing more chaos with her revelations.
One fanfiction has Rita Skeeter interviewing the ghosts of Hogwarts. It's a really unique concept. She tries to dig up dirt on the founders of Hogwarts through the ghosts. But as she does this, she starts to understand the real values of Hogwarts and changes her perspective. It's a long - form fanfiction with great character development for Rita Skeeter.
One way to complete a Harry x Rita Skeeter fanfiction could be to focus on their relationship evolving over time. Maybe Harry discovers a more human side to Rita. For example, Rita could be assigned to do a real, in - depth story on Harry and in the process, they start to understand each other better. Harry might initially be very guarded around her, given her past of writing scandalous and often untrue things about him. But as she delves deeper into his real story, they form an unlikely bond.
I'm not really sure as I haven't come across many of these specific fanfics. But perhaps one theme could be Rita Skeeter's nosiness. In the original books, she's always prying into others' business, and fanfics might expand on that in relation to other characters.
