Quick-Quotes Quill

rdfs:comment

"Rita Skeeter uses a Quick-Quotes Quill during her interview with Harry at the Wand Weighing ceremony. She tests the Quill by speaking her own name, which results in an account of her appearance and reputation being written down. Before Harry has even spoken, the Quill begins to write about the interview, describing Harry in exaggerated and descriptive language." A Quick-Quotes Quill is a magical quill that writes automatically as the subject speaks. However, the quill does not record verbatim what the subject says. Instead, it takes a subject's words and creates sensational and inaccurate tales that bear little resemblance to actual events. It is capable of writing on its own when dictated to, although what is written is often highly embellished. These quills are similar to Self-Writing Quills.

"Rita Skeeter uses a Quick-Quotes Quill during her interview with Harry at the Wand Weighing ceremony. She tests the Quill by speaking her own name, which results in an account of her appearance and reputation being written down. Before Harry has even spoken, the Quill begins to write about the interview, describing Harry in exaggerated and descriptive language." A Quick-Quotes Quill is a magical quill that writes automatically as the subject speaks. However, the quill does not record verbatim what the subject says. Instead, it takes a subject's words and creates sensational and inaccurate tales that bear little resemblance to actual events. It is capable of writing on its own when dictated to, although what is written is often highly embellished. Although Rita Skeeter's Quick-Quotes Quill is known to often produce inaccurate notes about the subjects of her interviews, it is apparently also capable of taking fairly accurate notes at times, as this is the quill used during Skeeter's 1996 interview with Harry Potter for the Quibbler, and Harry seemed pleased with the contents of the article upon its publication, unlike many of Skeeter's other articles. However, it is also possible that the Quill took its usual, embellished notes, and that Luna Lovegood had her father, the Quibbler's editor, set the article straight before its publication. These quills are similar to Self-Writing Quills.
