My God, what a horrific thing to do to someone, and Hermione... wow. I'm so curious what exactly it was the spell did to him. And we don't really know if he stayed his hand, in the end, do we? She was still walking away... she wasn't gone, yet.... I can't decide if she was a selfish coward or just filled with a God complex, or if by doing what she did, she saved him from bleeding to death. Whatever she was, I'm still shuddering. Wow.
