“No!” she screamed, her voice tearing through the silence, her body convulsing with the force of her denial. “It’s not my fault! I tried, I tried—”
"Ah, Dolores," Bellatrix purred, her voice low and throaty. "How is our favorite little Mudblood? Still resisting, I hope?"
Bellatrix let out a soft, delighted laugh, the sound sending a shiver down Umbridge's spine. "Good, good," she murmured, almost to herself. "I do love it when they fight. It makes their eventual submission so much sweeter."

Umbridge's expression was one of barely concealed distaste, though she masked it with a tight-lipped smile. She had never liked Bellatrix, not really. The woman was too unpredictable, too volatile, too... unhinged. But she was also valuable—Voldemort's most loyal servant, a powerful witch in her own right. And so, Umbridge tolerated her presence, even if it made her skin crawl." She's proving to be quite the challenge," Umbridge replied, her voice dripping with false sweetness. "But I do believe she's beginning to understand the futility of her resistance. A few more lessons, and she'll be ready to embrace her new reality." Bellatrix let out a soft, delighted laugh, the sound sending a shiver down Umbridge's spine. "Good, good," she murmured, almost to herself. "I do love it when they fight. It makes their eventual submission so much sweeter."
