[This is Snape. In the middle of the jungle. Still dressed in his black robes. Still buttoned up to his chin. In hot and humid weather

[A small smirk.] I'm sure the show would be worth it.
...Looking for rare ingredients, are you? [Because well, Severus is a potion master. For what other reason would he be walking through the jungle with a bag?]

[She's not a little girl and she's smart enough. Maybe you don't know her enough to be able to tell but she won't let herself be affected by such answers.]
Good thing, because I'm not one either.
What do you fear teaching me? That I could become too good at that?

I see. I had hoped you would be looking for an apprentice but apparently I was wrong. [A sigh.] Boredom, irritation and annoyance are the worst.
[She smirks slightly.] That said I'm a fast learner, resilient and disciplined, you know. I'm pretty sure teaching me wouldn't be such a bother as you think. ...Still nothing I could offer would make you change your mind, right?

I am not a Master who searches for and accepts just anyone as an apprentice.
[In his twenty or so years as a Potions Master, Snape's only accepted maybe one or two apprentices.]
I only take those with a real talent for the subject and a fervent desire to learn. And I have yet to see anyone here who meets even that most basic criteria.

Because you have never demonstrated a passion for it. Passion isn't defined by mere knowledge or capability of accomplishing basic goals and criteria. Simply following instructions is nothing, a mere child capable of reading and understanding would be able to brew a potion.
I have no interest in teaching you. Find someone else.

[And he's not here for your entertainment, thank you very much.]
Of course. Might as well put this event to some use.

[She is not expecting it either, Severus. But you could give quite the show if you wanted to.]
Have you found anything interesting so far?

I wouldn't still be out here if I hadn't.

I've been learning how to brew potions from books for years, but there's only so much you can learn that way.
I've heard that you're a potion master. ...Would you accept to teach me?

Have an automatic answer, Raven.]
No. I don't take on dunderheads.

Boredom, irritation, the annoyance of teaching and atrophying of my mind. Simply put, I have no desire to teach you or anyone else.

Yes, you have yet to see it. ...Do you want to? You've never seen me brew a potion after all.
