Off the door? Odd, that. So she wanted someone to hear. I wonder who. Perhaps any and all of us?
And could be that Lady Lestrange is simply enjoying herself at this point. Now that she's out of the field she finds fewer opportunities to do the things she really takes pleasure in.
Interrogation gets folded in with Surveillance and Investigation, because we all know who's the head Interrogator around here, don't we? Anyway, I did intensives in both Surveillance and Investigation. They were great and I got to work on some fantastic operations. Lots of spying on Dogstar and such.
I was pretty eager to impress back then, but after a time I could sense that my ambitiousness was rubbing some people the wrong way. It made them mistrust me, in some cases, or outright compete with me in others. I did an intensive with MEU to show that I didn't mind doing the work that nobody wanted, and that's where I ended up.
'Course, MEU doesn't really exist now, as such.
And yeah, they probably would have kept me on, and I probably would have revealed my skills, eventually. I rather wanted to see if I could improve it, first. With practice, you know? Because I think it probably can be improved. Hydra Lestrange didn't come into her legilimency until what, a few years ago? And yet she's somehow as good as her mother.
I can't tell. If it is improving, it's doing so in a profoundly slow way.
You know, I almost don't want to suggest this because you've done so well at occlumency, but would you be willing to let me cast the legilimency spell on you? It might shift things around in some way, maybe amplify my natural ability. But I know it's a lot to ask, and I sort of expect you to tell me no.
There's no one else I can ask, though, so I figure it's worth a try.
And you might not let me because I don't know what will happen, or what I'll end up reading off you. It's like asking you for permission to invade your privacy.
But I wouldn't be doing it because I want to invade your privacy, if you see what I mean.
Anyway, you're teaching me to occlude. I wouldn't be able to occlude at all if you hadn't taught me and you'd be able to invade my privacy all you wanted, any time you wanted.

Earlier today I saw Broome escorting her to Lady Lestrange.

I could hear screamingI would have thought she'd know anything Weasley knew by now.

Did you like it?
If they'd known how good you are at legilimency they'd have kept you on, surely.

Is it getting better? Your legilimency, I mean.

Well if my legilimency improves then I can actually probably help you make your occlusion stronger, too. So it works out for both of us.
Let's not start tonight, though. I'm knackered.
Tomorrow night, though?

Do you know what they're going to do toI'll see you tomorrow.
