Depends on how well Sabrina can control 117 grief marbles at once. She may have to merge marbles together or think of something else.

Maybe we can make Grief Cubes! Since that's the way the new system made them, cubes are obviously the superior shape for simple grief storage.

I like the addition, we can't just go around in a damaged costume, just like that.

Vote changed. Since Sabrina is apparently already orbiting the grief marbles with no issues.

Also, Homura's was using time stop for long enough to get from Madoka's to Sayaka's, plus healing on top of that, and had 4/5 of a gem left? That's some crazy good efficiency.

It might just be a knowledge thing - I'd assume after... how many years does she go through...? of protecting Madoka, she learns a few of the dos and don'ts. Push the magic this way, not this way. Heal this type of wound with this much energy, and use this type of motion for that kind of burn... and so on.

Not really. There were perfectly reasonable people advocating reading the note without touching it. Don't give the "don't read the note at all" faction that much credit.
Direct Intervention pt. 11
You awkwardly hug Mami back, while out of the corner of your eye, you see Homura stalking off around a corner, dodging one of your Grief marbles as she goes. "I kinda cheated with magic to dull the pain," you admit. "And... you and Homura were right there, so it was OK..."
"Oh, Sabrina." You can feel her shaking her head against your shoulder. "You- you..." Mami breaks off, lost for words.
"I'm sorry for making you worry again," you offer weakly.
"You're sor- for making me worry. You weren't even- you're not even worried about your leg, are you?" Mami says with a choked laugh. "You, Sabrina... you are something amazing." She gives you one last squeeze before releasing you, and favouring you with a half-smile.
"I... uh," you say, slightly puzzled. "Thank you, Mami? And thank you for the healing, too," you half bow in her direction. Raising your voice, you add, "You too, Homura. Thank you for the healing."
Homura walks back around the corner of the silent air conditioning compressor. "You're welcome."
You take a step back, and look down at your shredded pant leg. You could retransform, and the costume would be fine again, or... you concentrate, twisting your magic just so, and a fine white glow suffuses you. The costume mends itself, weaving itself across your leg as though from some otherworldly bolt of cloth. Even the tiny rips and tears here and there mend themselves, threads snaking together.
Mami gives you an approving nod and smile, while Homura simply looks on impassively. You glance around, and look at the tremendous ring of tiny spheres of grief orbiting you slowly. "Oh wow..." you say, slightly shocked. You knew you'd cleansed off a lot of Grief, but actually seeing the sheer amount puts a different complexion on it.
"I... guess I need to do something about that," you say to no one in particular. "Bit unwieldy." You reshape the enormous ring, dividing up the marbles into seven groups of fifteen marbles each, and move each group to sit at the points of half an icosahedron, centered on you. Each of the small groups of marbles form a small ring of fourteen orbiting the remaining one of their number.
With the marbles spaced out like that, you reason, it should be relatively out of the way. Less chance of them running into things as you roof hop, though you resolve that you'll probably need to get that sling bag from Mami if you plan on keeping this many marbles around. It's fine in the timestop, with no one to see, but you'll look decidedly odd to non magical girls.
"It's sort of pretty," Mami observes, looking at the geometric patterns you formed from the Grief marbles, but the smile fades from her face.
You shrug. "It seemed like the thing to do. This will keep the Grief out of the way, at least?"
"It's a good thing you can remove corruption," Mami says quietly. "There's... probably more than I can afford, here." It seems that the sheer magnitude of what it had taken to heal you is beginning to sink in for her. She continues in a slightly more formal tone. "And thank you, Homura, for insisting that I cleanse my Soul Gem. Losing my magic at this juncture would have been unfortunate."
Homura nods. "Not a problem," she says, eyes flickering to yours for a moment. You can tell what she's probably thinking- about Mami, and her reaction to the unpleasant reveals on the nature of magical girls.
"Anyway," you say, catching Mami's attention. "Shall we continue on? Oriko's still out there, somewhere."
"I suppose so," the blonde replies. "Do you need a minute to rest first, Sabrina?"
"No, I'm fine," you demur. "How about you? And Homura?"
"Not necessary," Homura says.
Mami shakes her head, blonde curls flapping. "I'm fine, too. Where shall we go, first?"
"I suggest checking towards Oriko's house," Homura replies.

Alright, so Oriko would know that we're going to her house, so we can assume it's trapped and she isn't there.
On the other hand, she would know we would think that, so maybe she is there...?
But then again, it's possible that the time-stop made it so that she can't see where we go, but only where we end up after?

And now you see why shadowderps threaten to undo everything. One hand the one hand, if we don't do anything, Oriko will be able to predict it. On the other flipper, if we are proactive, she will be able to predict it. It's not a perfect prediction, but its enough of one that she gets the general idea.Alright, so Oriko would know that we're going to her house, so we can assume it's trapped and she isn't there.

Well, we shouldn't split up with bombs everywhere, so...
[x]Agree
--Be extra careful; use the excess grief to test for traps
--Set up traps of our own along the perimeter of her house; see if Homura has any thing we'd be able to trigger without civilian casualties. Cameras alongside nets, tranquilizers, sleeping gas, etc. Anything non-lethal, really.
Let's hope that she can't see what happens in the Time-stop, and just sees the effects - she saw the bomb go off when it was placed there, for instance.
