Hmm, I assumed that H&C did what he did with Zabini and just planted the ideas that he wished in Hermione and left the results to play out rather then engaging with Hermione in a ongoing conversation.
H&C presumably contacted Zabini more than once when using him as a pawn. I imagine he’d talk to hermione after the battle regardless of whether she was able to summon him when she got the letter.

Ok, that sounds reasonable enough.
