He mentioned it when we were talking about occlumency and how Snape sucked at teaching, but Bella must have been a much better teacher since you got it." Of course, it was likely that his father would never have the patience to learn, but no one was going to argue with him about that. "Also we all know that your aunt lived with you that last year. She did torture Aunt Hermione in your house. That was the big topic of discussion the first time that Scorpius invited Albus to the manor. But honestly, come around the second of May and you learn plenty. It's almost like being there." It didn't help that his entire family got drunk out of their minds and got all depressed and depressing around the anniversary.
