Oh, it's you. Dear me, I thought you had forgotten about poor Bellatrix.
What are you talking about? Oh, right.. them. I've already told you their talent was more strategical than it was magical. How shall I explain this...
Apparition is an easy enough bit of magic, but it's tricky. If you're not in the right state-of-mind, you could end up Splinched very easily. Or worse. Under a hail of curses, most wizards and witches would be very hard-pressed to preform a successful Apparition. Thus, they have to stay and fight, or find cover from which to escape.
Your parents were not like most of the rest of us. They couldn't lay down enough curses to trap the enemy. So they chose to do it literally with wardings and illusions. That isn't my specialty. I have nothing to teach you there.
I do have other things to teach and tell you, but truth be told, I don't know if I want to. There doesn't seem to be any point. You lack focus.

No, I wouldn't forget about you....Jesus, how could I?
I must respectfully ask, why do you think I lack focus? I've been studying everything I can get my hands on having to do with Apparition; I thought it would help. I've been more focused this last month than I have been in my entire life in a long time. What more do I need to do to prove myself? Don't be such a bloody bitch about it! Just teach me! I've even become a boring respectable member of Slytherin! Please, Bellatrix, don't leave me too just let me know what I need to do and I promise I'll do it.

Yes, yes, I know. I watched you practise that day with Severus, he's really quite strict isn't he? Poor man.
Why should I continue to teach you anything? What would you do with it? Hm.. Any monkey can learn a task, it's what is done with that power that separates us from the Muggles. Do you understand what I'm saying, little girl?

You watched us practising? I didn't see you... Where were you? Why? Have you been watching me at other times?
I understand. Should I continue to receive teaching from you, I will do what is needed of me and my skills to help my family the people who look out for me, meaning you and Slytherin house and all their friends and family. Please let that be what you want to hear.
