if you stab it with a basilisk fang, does it do the whole exploding into black goo thing as well?

No, nothing happens for a few weeks until you get a cease & desist in the mail from Nintendo for modifying one of their consoles

Ok, but there's a whole bit in The Order of the Phoenix where Harry tried to cast Crucio on Bellatrix, but it fails, and she says something along the lines of "you have to really mean it, you have to really want to hurt the person", so I doubt you could accidentally cast Avada Kedavra on your closest friend

Easy, the fragment of Voldemort in him wanted to.

Hermoine: "No no no! Your pronunciation is all wrong. It's Avada Kedavra, not abra kadabra!"

This feels perfect for a fifth panel gag showing her accidentally killing Harry.

Bone of the father, unknowingly given, you will renew your son.

Flesh of the servant, willingly given, you will revive your master.

Blood of the enemy, forcibly taken, you will resurrect your foe.
