"No, I didn't," said Hermione, "I had complete faith in you."
"As a matter of fact, I did Confund him," Ron whispered to Harry, as together they lifted Albus's trunk and owl onto the train. "I only forgot to look in the wing mirror, and let's face it, I can use a Supersensory Charm for that."
And yeah, it IS wrong. It's wrong and it's cheating and it's dangerous. But Rowling's wizards are allowed to do things like that. It's not like they'll ever have to face consequences, is it?
