--[X] It won't happen instantly.
I'd... actually contest this. Sayaka's just gotten confirmation that Homura cares about Madoka and that it's an important enough story to have been included in our metaknowledge. She's one moment of realization away from coming up with a theory that explains all observable evidence and she's going to be thinking about it, with new information, all through tonight and tomorrow. I'd actually rate her likelihood of figuring it out highest
right now, or in about two hours. If it hasn't happened by tomorrow afternoon we're probably safe, but it's too early to tell.
-[X] Sayaka might select the Witchbomb shortly - ask Homura if she would be alright with providing care during 'her' part of the day, and overnight.
--[X] Bring up that Sayaka considers Homura a friend again.
I guess that this works as an excuse to re-emphasize that Sayaka trusts Homura, but I'm not sure this is useful otherwise. I don't know if Homura would be at all comfortable doing this. If she is I'd expect her to volunteer.
Apparently I got distracted midway through responding to your, but I have major disagreements on most of your edits. "Up to date" is a really bad reason to vote for something; all it means is that you're voting for something that hasn't been peer-reviewed yet.
Also, next time you do this: There's a reason I re-post my entire vote instead of going with quotes. Quoting quotes is a pain in the ass and I'm not going to go to the trouble of doing it. Tab back and forth if you want to know what I'm responding to. It's what I had to do.
1. There are many ways that Tokyo Meguca could find out about Madoka and Hitomi, such as Incubator influence, or any power based around gaining knowledge. Homura knows this, and may immediately counter with that, rendering this reasoning for why they're safe invalid.
2. Still mentioning Madoka's wish, although focusing on her self-esteem
If Kyubey wants to fuck us over he's not going to do it like this. If they have information-gathering meguca they're not going to target Madoka. The "they may find out and target her anyway" scenario is so general and specific that it would ruin
literally every plan - Hijiri might target Madoka because she's friends with Mami who's friends with the Pleiades, Rionna might target Madoka because how else would she be suppressing all information of her misdeeds, etc. And, most of all, Homura isn't going to be strawmanning at us. Saying that the Tokyo magical girls won't know or care that Madoka exists is perfectly reasonable and doesn't pollute our message.
I am explicitly not mentioning Madoka's Wish because I do not believe that Homura understands that trying to reduce Madoka's opportunities to wish is a pointless endeavor. She's too good at finding ways to martyr herself. She's like Sayaka in that regard. The way to keep Madoka from Wishing is to improve her self-esteem enough that she's satisfied with her life without making a Wish. I wanted to go into a full explanation of Madoka but people apparently think that this isn't the time for that, so instead we just need to make sure to not reinforce Homura's bad ideas.
Reasoning: We're going to talk to Homura about this some time, and I don't think we particularly resolved this yet.
Homura was obviously very confused here and since we have an explanation, we shouldn't put it in low priority.
Talking about Hitomi's mom is not something that needs to be done in time stop. We are already explicitly complexity-limited and we have things that are more time-sensitive, more important,
and can only be talked about in time stop. The part about Hitomi's mom is only in low-priority because I didn't want to delete it entirely.
Seriously, I am
not going to give up our warnings about Sayaka or our ideas about Madoka helping with politics to plan something that we can deal with outside time stop any time we have five minutes to spare. You have this ABOVE THE MODEL UN STUFF IN YOUR VOTE. I cannot emphasize enough how bad an idea this is. Do NOT spend time-stop budget on stuff that doesn't need time-stop when the QM just told us to wrap it up.
Reasoning: No reason to put this off, and Homura's likely to just say "ok" it's a short thing that'll help her stay in the loop about our mind and day to day activities. If she doesn't just say "ok" she may have some insight or experience, which is always helpful
Talking about therapists is low-priority: identical reasoning to talking about Hitomi's Mom, but even more so. It doesn't need time-stop, it's not time-critical, and it's not something that we need to spend critically limited time-stop narrative budget on.
[x] Warn Homura that Sayaka has most of the puzzle pieces to put together that Homura's a time traveler.
-[x] You don't foresee it causing any problems - if anything it'll help - but you don't want Homura to be completely blind-sided if it happens.
-[x] What does Homura want you to do if she asks about it? You won't share anything without permission, but if she does figure it out from this, it'd probably be best to make sure she has the story right.
[x] Respecting Homura's fears and concerns, bring up Sayaka's comments about Madoka and Hitomi at the Model UN and suggest asking them to help analyze Tokyo's politics.
-[x] No outside magical girl would even know they exist.
-[x] Madoka would be really helping, with a skill that's uniquely hers, and letting her do it would help her self-esteem.
[x] Lower-priority topics:
-[x] Offer to turn all of her Grief Seeds into Clear Seeds.
-[x] Re-emphasize that you're always willing to answer any questions that Homura might have, and go fishing for anything she might want to know. Any decisions of yours she wants more context on, particular people she'd appreciate analyses of, that kind of thing.
-[x] You're meeting with Hitomi's mother this weekend, you should ask later if Homura wants to be there or add anything to the agenda.
-[x] Ask what happens when Witches rehatch. Do they drop a grief seed? Are they more powerful? Why isn't farming a single witch done?
[x] Leave timestop. Give Mami a big, spinning, silly hug.
-[x] Cut to voting to decide what to work on and what topics to discuss.
