That scene with Umbridge's quill just about made me sick. How COULD 
she do that? Right under DD nose, the more. Wouldn't he know what was 
going on? Why didn't Lee tell DD when it happened to him?( we know 
why Harry didn't)
Does this mean the teachers are allowed to do just about anything 
they want? 
I can't remember having ever read anything this appaling (using your 
word innermurk). The more she's punishing children here, or 
teenagers, not adults, not grown-ups...she must be really evil that 
women to be able to watch someone hurt himself and be amused, even 
happy about it. It's just sick!
Sorry, is this is an overreaction, just had to get it out of my 
system :)
