ABT NARCISSA: Its not really mentioned that Narcissa isnt skilled in Occlumency and any how even if she was pretty good in it, in the forest she was hardly in the situation to apply it and keep a cool head etc etc for she was trembling over her son...
but remember, Voldemort always knows when sumone is lying to him...true enough(well "Not always" na...Sev proved it..Hee he! Cheers to him! π )
bu back to the point, Voldemort had seen Harry being Hit by Avada Kedavra. N he knw he had done it..in his heart was that exultant triumph for which he had waited for yrs now...He was more or less sure this was the end...He just send Narcissa to check if Harry is dead..Just to MAKE IT CERTAIN...AS dumbledore said "U see what u want to see"..I wud just add "U believe what u want to believe too".
I dun think he wud have taken the trouble to apply occlumency on Narcissa n all...afterall why shud he...she is a Death Eater and there is no reason for her to lie...(remember that Voldemort doesnt understant subtle feelings of a Mother) WHY HARRY DIDNT SCREAM OUT WHEN CRUCIATUS CURSE WAS CAST ON HIM: Harry was expecting Voldemort to do sumthing like that...HArry had already made peace with Death...and had suffered too much pain..N this physical torture was nothing in comparison to that..Pain had bcum part n parcel of life for him... π
and As I said above, he expected it and so was all braced up..N in his mind, he was calm and peaceful. Cruciatus Curse affects u only if u arent ready for the pains of the world, if ur mind flutters and flounders. Harry had DECIDED and UNDERSTOOD whats gonna happen.
The pain of the curse was beneath him at the moment
This is my view...
