Pippin:
And Hermione should ask forgiveness for mandating the cruel, inhuman
and degrading punishment of children. I really don't think JKR is going to
leave her readers feeling smug about that. But if you do, maybe you'd
like this nice chocolate-y cauldron cake? :) 

Speaking of which, I'm glad Hermione took more care with the cauldron 
cakes than she did with her portion of the polyjuice, or she might have 
done more damage than just robbing Crabbe and Goyle of an hour of 
their lives, never to be returned. She might've murdered  both of them.
Or what would have happened if instead of eating one cake each, one of 
them had eaten both? Overdoses can be dangerous. Hermione has been 
thoughtless and careless of the rights of others, and I'm afraid JKR is all 
set to smack her with the consequences.

Pippin:
But they did! Barty Sr. made sure the traitor was hauled off to Azkaban
before he could hurt anyone else. Just like Hermione in CoS, he got 
the wrong man, too.
