I think that Its not that Oriko stops existing in her visions, but that "Oriko Mikuni" stops existing (presumably because she changed her name to Oriko kure).

[x] Tell Oriko to look into the future at Kirika, and see if she has a constant companion in some of them.
-[x] if it exists ask what that person's name is
-[x] otherwise tell her that there's no reason she should give up on living, just because the name, "Oriko Mikuni" doesn't exist, doesn't mean the girl who is Oriko Mikuni won't exist in the future in some other form with some other name

I doubt her visions work that way. For one thing, even if it did require a verbal description of who she's looking for, why would she ask for "Oriko Mikuni" instead of "Myself"?

Well, Myself would never exist beyond this instant (we change from instant to instant after all). It is simply one way to explain how there are no possible futures for her (unless she is so absolutely stubborn that there was a zero percent probability of her seeing the truth, which is canonically False)

Refocusing her on Kirika and her future is also a positive result (as that ties in with the ultimate revalation).
 
[x] Right, let's take a break. Everyone needs to cool off. Cleansing.
[x] Telepathy Kirika. It's going to be okay. I'm not going to leave it at this. For now just be with your Ojou alright?
[x] Back to your blue coat. Dismiss the maid outfit.
[x] Go outside to the yard. Sit down. Take a breather.
-[x] Check the time.
-[x] Telepathy Mami. Have a chat. Ask her how her test went.

Cooling off right now definitely seems like a good idea. Although note that cleansing for Kirika and Oriko shouldn't be necessary since Kirika left their gems on the table touching Aurora. Sabrina can probably use a cleanse, though. And maybe Aurora.

But when we're ready, maybe we should try approaching the problem from a different tack. Oriko doesn't like the futures she sees? Oriko feels trapped and helpless? Let's address both of these at once and have a planning session with Oriko to discuss potential solutions to the problems that she has already seen in her visions. To start with, we can ask Oriko about the problems that can happen in Mitakihara if we broadly publicize our cleansing abilities. That's one of the things that is bothering Oriko, and we should be able to brainstorm with Oriko and Kirika about some ways that we could preemptively resolve things peaceably. And if we discuss a number of potential solutions that Oriko has not considered nor seen in her visions, it could be a great exercise in demonstrating the limitations of her visions.
 
A thought... With Oriko having admitted to wanting to live, she should now be scared of Sabrina as well as Homura, Sayaka and 'blonde/green eyes' meguca, since she's foreseen each of them killing her.

Maybe instead of telling Oriko we can change her fate... we go do a lot of crazy stuff so Oriko's visions will change?

Turn our Grief into a huge cloud of butterflies flapping around us, and run around town like that. Then we just watch what happens.

Sabrina, I don't think that's how the butterfly effect works...
'course it is!
 
Sabrina: I know what your problem is! We didn't put your brain back together again last time! *Summons Hammer* Hold still, we just need to crack you open and I'll fix your brain properly this time.
