Let's remove the part about not being able to talk details with Sayaka in the room, that's followed immediately by waking up Sayaka and talking details, please. (If we can't mod the vote with a write-in, then I shall swap to the provided Tell option, of course.) Ah, also, I think we may have some spacing issues with a number of otherwise identical votes not being counted together...
But anyway, I agree that we're reaching the amount of knowledge floating around that'll get... People will start guessing if they don't already know, and proper information is better than scattered incomplete information. The moment Sayaka just had about that chair? If we don't do a clarify now, I'd give it no more than an in-universe day before she asks and guesses the truth herself. As for Madoka... if she's liable to begin investigating if we don't answer, well, in this loop that seems even more risky than usual, with hostile cats and not-cats, and Berserkers, and heaven knows what else wandering around.
And... This just feels like a right time. It fits now, and that's a rare sort of thing, I think; it's hard to find a time that feels right to tell someone something important. Here and now, we have the breathing room for this talk, and I think we should take it.

I think this would be the far more interesting answer. Then we can have Detective 'Doka POV try and piece everything together and we get to keep our mysterious transfer student streak going.

Any thoughts on this? Someone- things that we oughta detail include for how to do this? Or- @Higure would we be able to request a break to vote after we see Madoka's and Sayaka's reaction to only the "time traveler who has met them before" part, or after they start asking questions?
Either way, I want to at least explain the being a timetraveler, even if not the full extent of things. I don't really think mystery subplot is particularly safe, and poor communication or lack of communication is already kinda of a thing that kills in PMMM. Even if we don't go far into every-everything, the timecycles will hopefully answer enough questions (and give them enough to think over) that they won't go flailing around for more information without telling us. "On the other hand, she will gain an ally in your machinations, within reason" sounds pretty good to me, about the default vote option for Tell.
Re: Chair: The chair that has our color scheme and clockwork motif, to which Sayaka's reaction was given the description
Sayaka glances from the chair, to you, and back. Her expression…you'd like to call it nervousness, but you can see her fear for what it is. A realization that there is something strange happening. The expression of someone watching the ground vanish beneath them.

So, here's the thing: Homura isn't ready for a tell all, and she's extremely reluctant to tell Sayaka about this, due to potential consequences and difficulty trusting the blueberry's judgement (or predicting her reaction). She also doesn't fully trust Sayaka to keep her mouth shut.
I won't veto this, but understand that Homura's going to be far less open about everything if Sayaka's involved, and isn't willing to go in depth regarding what has happened during the actual loops (even if it were just Madoka).

Here we go then. Hope everything looks in order.
This answers "where are you getting your intel", "why do you seem so much older than you're supposed to be", "why do you seem to be familiar with people you have only just met", "why others (e.g. Madoka) may find you unexpectedly familiar", and probably a few others.
It may raise "wait did you know I would react to x in y way, are you manipulating us", "why are you time looping/time traveling", "how well did you know us in other timelines and what do you know about us", and "how long have you been doing this". Also raises questions about our present activities, but preparing for Walpurgisnacht without going into details is a perfectly reasonable thing to be doing even without directly mentioning the specifics of our wish, anyway.
... er wait hellshit, uh, were we trying to keep security on this intel from Cubes? Like, the time-traveller part? I do not remember, I'm going to go check and add to this post as relevant but- Given that "tell Madoka we're a time traveller" was a default option, Homura isn't presently "Kyubey is constantly surveilling us and should never learn about my time looping", and this vote doesn't actually include any information more sensitive than that, given that 'the universe going funny' is something Cubes can probably just straight-up see itself...

I'm a bit reluctant to join the write-in. I could see trusting Sayaka with the knowledge if that's as far as it went. Homura, to the likely surprise of her past self, has gained many reasons to trust the blueberry throughout this loop. But I don't think Sayaka can rightly be trusted not to blab, or not to ask compromising questions. The risk of information getting out that will hurt Sayaka's sanity is high -- at least, higher than I'd like. Even if she gives up on asking Homura, what if she asks Nanoha? The latter will probably keep quiet but she's quite likely to show it on her face that she knows something Sayaka doesn't.

I think it's better to wait until Sayaka comes to ask us/figures it out herself. There's a... you're only prepared to know when you start questioning it yourself kind of vibe going on here with this.
There's also Homura's comfort to consider. Sayaka is very supportive, but that's an exception for how she usually is for Homura.

Let's break down the flood of information on separate people, with different degrees of secrecy, at different times.
It'll be easier to handle revealing new secrets and managing the shock and further questions coming with it.
Okay, reread everything to be sure, but yeah, we've been using timestop freely enough while Cubes has been around, been willing to ask him what was up with the attack on Mami's apartment. Spoken aloud with Oriko obliquely about time-things and this time around going weird (in 'Housing Troubles and an Unpredictable World'), enough such that something astute enough would put 'time traveler' or some variation together out of it. For that matter, our "we've lost too many that way" while Kyubey is talking to Madoka ('Akemi at Law') is, given the rest of the context, also likely to give Cubes the idea that we've experienced more than linear time could suggest. Plus all the words we keep spilling that seem to know people we shouldn't know. And of course the level of intel we're sharing, as the setting keeps on going wild. (Of course, this doesn't rule out someone coming to the conclusion that we've experienced some sort of shared dream state adventure, or experienced a localized compressed time of experience, or an extended precognition of some sort, or simply have some sort of passive power that erases all traces of our passing.) Basically, the fact that we've dropped enough clues that Kyouko and Sayaka are well on their way to determining something is up timewise with us, and what, means that worrying about Cubes putting together/learning that we're a time traveler at this point is very much shutting the barn door when the horses have already got out. Mostly. Or, it's not the weirdest thing at this point, I think?
Hm. Hopefully our weirdness gets bundled up together with all the other mayhem, actually. The question is, from a metatemporal perspective, as all the fragile universe stuff been happening for the entirety of the length of the timeline we're in now, since the fragile shift happened between loops? Or was this present timeline perfectly reasonable until we looped in, and then fragile was applied to the interstitial space between universes and times, only affecting those sections of timeline that are non-determinisitally known to match up in parallel with the time characterized as after we've looped in? That is- Kyubey declares Berserker and the White Creature, and Nanoha, and whatever's up with Sayaka, to be anomalies. This suggests that this timeline hasn't been juggling the glasses and flatware the entire time the Incubators have been observing Earth, at least, not visibly like it is now. Even with the weirdness that is this entire timeline, though? Or- mwargh, need to go back and check about some of that. Still. I'm very interested to know what Kyubey thinks of this entire mess, and whether it's actually helping keep the Incubators' attention off of Homura's weirdness, considering she very clearly has no idea what's causing the larger cosmological weirdnesses that I think they may find more interesting?
tl;dr It doesn't look like telling Madoka and Sayaka about being a time traveler is much worse for our information security as it's already been, as long as we're discrete about the details. Also, I have no idea what the Incubators are even thinking about the recent anomalies, and I have many questions about the metaphysical and metatemporal state of the universe we're in.
Also, one of the hostile cats has been in timestop, so we can assume any entity behind them would know about it- and of course, if the Large Number Of Cats are hostile because of something Homura has done and something Madoka has done, there's a nonzero possibility they're already aware of the timecycles, and possibly are here because of something that happened in one. Speaking of cats, dubious segues, and shuffling around the points of this post a whole lot:
I've thought of more things to ask about the cats and the White Creature. Well, some clarifications to pin down about the former, some new thoughts about the latter. Unfortunately, the former means this is both long, and, uh. RepetitivePrecise Thorough. Okay yeah, this is actually obscenely long, @Higure, feel free to tell me to cut it out if this ever actually gets to be over the top, I just feel like there's something staring me in the face that I can't quite see the shape of, and I keep trying to pin it down.

... ahem, anyway.
... uh. Uh. Waitasec. Uh. Has just been reminded that Madoka may well have been dreaming of past loops. At the least, it's not out of the question. Like, in canon, she dreams of loops that had been. Whatever the time model we're using in Renascence... I am suddenly quite concerned about what Madoka has been picking up. For that matter, in Renascence, Homura has been looping for far longer than in canon. Madoka is Madoka is Madoka, but... It's been long enough that, whatever was leaking through in canon, has had a lot more time to come through clearly, now. (Also, it's interesting to note that Madoka's chair-circle-thing, whatever is up with that, seems to either predate the loops, or else have been caused very, very early on.) But like, all of Madoka's dialogue from that latter bit of the chapter. It just... I am very interested to know if she's been having just as strange dreams as Homura, or what exactly she's been absorbing, through time.
I'm a bit reluctant to join the write-in. I could see trusting Sayaka with the knowledge if that's as far as it went. Homura, to the likely surprise of her past self, has gained many reasons to trust the blueberry throughout this loop.

The latter will probably keep quiet but she's quite likely to show it on her face that she knows something Sayaka doesn't.
I'm losing track, what intels are there that we gave Nanoha that Sayaka doesn't have? We Witchbombed and Litchbombed Madoka, and Sayaka was literally there, so it can't be those. Nanoha doesn't know about the time-travel; we'd actually have more to worry about Sayaka letting Nanoha in on that than anything else. Overall, I think Sayaka can be trusted not to blab information that might hurt people or be a security risk- it's just that yeah, she'd investigate things. But what are the items we're trying to stop her from learning, this time around? (Not rhetorical questions; participating in a lot of quests and reading a lot of fanfic and trying to write some things means I'm losing track of who knows what info...)
Re, Sayaka questioning things... As I said, I'm getting the feeling that she's going to ask, sooner than later. And I'd rather control when the conversation happens. She already knows a lot, enough to put together a lot- more than I'd remembered, before I reread things.
... hm though. Nnnnn... @PurposefulZephyr while your point about breaking up the conversation is somewhat convincing me, a concern: Sayaka literally being asleep in the room while we appear to still be wanting to spill details to Madoka. The default vote literally does contain deferring the talk of details because Sayaka is in the room. At least a part of my concern, aside from trying to talk details at this moment, is that even revealing things in a general sense, Sayaka will overhear, and be upset we didn't tell her. Of course, her asking about that would be a good point to talk it over with her separately.

Homura can ask Madoka to whisper, since Sayaka doesn't know.
Or they can leave the room for the duration of the confession, maybe take a sneaky walk to the kitchen for some snacks? Or walk to the toilet to brush their teeth? It's laaate, after all.
As for the most secure option- take Madoka into a timestop, at least during the most revealing bits.
All those approaches can be combined, or we can simply ask Homura to watch out for Sayaka overhearing them, then use her own judgment on how to do that.

All would be reasonable, yes. I would kind of want to see all that reflected in the vote, though? And no one voting for the idea seems to be editing to reflect that, is part of my concerns.

There, a Sayaka-proof confession.
I am having second thoughts of not telling Sayaka about the time stuff, however.
In the end, we want to tell everyone we trust about our secrets, if only to see their reaction to it, find out who's safe to reveal herself to, and who's better off left in the dark. We'll lose by playing it safe, after all.
We don't want Cubes to find out, but I guess that means we should leave out the secret giveaway for end of the loop, where there isn't as much time to find out and screw Homura over.
Oh god no. We already missed the Golden Ending for this loop at the very least, one of which is almost certainly not getting all the Sayaka memories, and we still have no idea why everything is falling apart on a technical level.
Oh no. We are going to be looping again.
... That's one thing we need to ask Yuko about anyway. The uh... falling apart thing I mean.
