Indeed!
Aurora has become a bit more active. She's sleepy to Hildegard's comatose.

When we Clear a Seed, the Witch inside becomes 'quiescent', still, as opposed to how Witches in normal Seeds are usually active, like a maelstrom is contained within the Seed.
Aurora was Cleared, then used heavily by Oriko while she was having her Wish Rejection thing, and we noticed Aurora becoming slightly active once it had taken in quite a bit of Grief. We cleared Aurora again, but instead of becoming quiescent once more, it remained active, despite the lack of Grief.

Tsuruya Yuki, your Wish has reduced entropy.

On Rin and Sakura: The group is stressed out by inactivity, the things that Akiko is mumbling in her nightmares, cabin fever, and likely other things besides, and Rin is extra stressed out because she's taken responsibility for the group and is being forced to mediate and hand down resolutions.
We have two obvious levers with which to influence this situation.
I'd suggest just "strategic teleportation plus healing and go around cleaning out pediatric oncology wards", but I think that that wouldn't help the entire group.
We have two obvious levers with which to influence this situation.
First, we can thank Yuki for doing this. This should help Rin cope with her problems. She doesn't just need advice, she needs a friend that she can talk to. I doubt that she has a "second in command" right now that she can use as a sounding board for her problems inside the group. The next-best thing is to help her find someone on the outside that she can safely discuss things with.
Second, we can offer to put them in touch with Hitomi's parents. Strategic teleportation, walpy-shortlist force fields, gravity manipulation, and top-tier healing. If Akiko recovers enough, add walpy-shortlist hydrokinesis. They'd make an absolutely amazing team for humanitarian aid following natural disasters or conflicts. Going out and helping people doesn't necessarily mean intervening. Probably put them in touch with hackerguca to get the equivalent of a police scanner.

Note:
Assuming that a defense pact is made, it's strategically superior for Hitomi to buy a house outright. You don't want to be paying rent on something which you intend to be a stronghold for an indefinite amount of time. This also would be useful for Mami and Sabrina to move into as a permanent place of residence, be a useful bolthole if anyone needs a place to stay and hide from their parents due to serious family conflicts, as well as ending up being a useful place to house allied magical girls.
Now, how possible that would be is a different question. But buying a house outright is definitely strategically superior.
Edit: Also, a warehouse is simultaneously more and less defensible in the context of fortresses and Yuki. While a warehouse has less giant windows and stuff that can be used to snipe you, it also has less rooms that Yuki can use to turn into a horrifying maze of death. This being said, more information from Yuki is also needed about how specifically her powers work.

Homura intentionally requested the house so it's close to Madoka's residence. She even socialized with Hitomi to do it. In that context, refusing the house and proposing the warehouse is just Homu bullying.
Don't bully the Homu. Encourage her socializing with positive reinforcement instead!

Agree. We have no reason to consider anything other than what Homu and Hitomi put together for us. And it means we don't have to figure anything out ourselves, which is a bonus.Homura intentionally requested the house so it's close to Madoka's residence. She even socialized with Hitomi to do it.

Do you have any idea how much of a major gesture of trust it is for Homura to even consider letting a Magical Girl live within a fucking mile of Madoka's house? Holy shit.

Firn, we're gonna have to ask you to retcon the latest update. Instead of reading:

We do have Sayaka with at least one source of borrowed plant manipulation powers. Moreso if we get the other girl to help (was that University or Ishinomaki or who?) , doesn't seem to hard...
You...you would have us cheat on Warehouse-kun?! We don't need another one for such an important project!

There are a lot of conditions that go into plant growth; i'm sure that we can get loads of people in on the project; got to keep rolling out those new jobs for people.
We wouldn't be cheating on them! We would just be setting up their sibling with our friend is all...And getting them the right tools and equipment to have a growing relationship...

[] Defense pact
- [] Anything more to ask?
- [] Lay down more terms?
Not sure what else we should bring up.
[ ] Yuki's Nexus
- [ ] Homura's suggestion
I see very little reason not to accept Homura's idea.
[] Sakura and Rin
- [] Something more to say?
Can we dismiss them at this point, assuming the deal goes through? I suppose it partially depends on how long it'll take Hitomi to arrange access to a house, and how long it'll take Yuki to get it teleport-capable.
Even then, we can fly Airi over in the worst case.
[] Move on to transfer Airi and the antimagic enchantment.
Note that we still haven't actually given Fukushima their Clear Seed yet. If we're using Sakura's teleport it makes sense to make it there, but otherwise we should probably make it right after the deal is done.

We totally did though? Right before calling over Kyubei?
... Wait, I need to reread.
Edit: yep, we did:

Ah. Don't mind me, then.

Yuki's mentioned enemies. Perhaps we should bring up that if at all possible, we'd want a peaceful resolution of any problem that pops up, and maybe even trying to reach out to those enemies and make peace. We could, like, send Oriko and Kirika on diplomatic missions.
How does this sound? Yuki or her representatives, aided by Oriko, go meet and try to make peace with 'enemy' groups, and then try to spread the Clear Seeds.
It pertains the defense pact in so much it would deal with possible threats before they can pop up.
It also advances our goals.
Else, maybe something about collaborating on defensive measures?
I think we'll want to ask Yuki how her conversation with Rin and Sakura goes, but I think we're done addressing them personally. Not asking for details, just need Yuki's assessment, since things at Sendai are not exactly peachy.
By the way, Yuki should totally wear glasses:

While it is not relevant right now, we still need to follow up on Hideyoshi Nao (the stealth meguca that QB wanted us to meet) - in fact, we could use the opportunity to get intel on Kamaishi City, if there are any other meguca of interest there, and if they would be interested in free Grief-cleansing and being in on the defense pact.
If Mami and Homura ask, we can be frank and say that QB got annoyed enough by our unintended(?) defiance of the masquerade that it is actually taking the time to present us with a solution, of their own volition. Additionally, meguca are for saving, so we would have looked into it eventually.
EDIT: Also, regarding Rin and Sakura, I think that for now it would be best to back off for a while, and trust Yuki to make some headway.

Sorry, my idea was that we would follow up on Hideyoshi Nao later, likely perhaps tomorrow, unless there is anything urgent?
EDIT: Did we ever give QB the impression that we would be meeting Hideyoshi Nao, just not immediately?

Well, there is a spar after school, but nothing important in the morning? What does Day Planner say?
Edit: well, anyone interested can look themselves, but apparently there is a WPN talk with Shiogama girls, and discussing with Kyubei if we can get the Megucas' muggle names out of him by telling him their Witch names.

Hmm... regarding the Witch history thing, we should probably be careful in how we word our questions to QB (if QB cottons on that we are aware of the truth of the origins of Witches, then we can state that we had heard of it from other Magical Girls - technically true). Maybe say something like "Who was the first person (or Magical Girl) to fall victim to this Witch?"
EDIT: Speaking of which, does QB know that we can ascertain the name of Witches, including unhatched ones? I don't believe that it knows about that aspect of our powers, and if it doesn't, we probably shouldn't inform it of that.

Regarding the second point, you're right, we should keep that under wraps.
The first one, however, is somewhat different. We probably still shouldn't say anything to confirm it, but Kyuubey is probably aware; those little rats aren't dumb.

That would make for a hilarious conversation, but really at that point, better to just ask him.
Otherwise,
"Is it true that the sky could be considered chromatically identical to the human-invented term «blue» corresponding to the wavelength 450-495 of the human-invented quantity «nanometer»?"
"While it could be indeed arguably considered so, one could also make a case of the sky being chromatically equivalent to any other color visible by a particularly inefficient biological construct, referred by aborigines of the celestial body, designation «Earth», as the «human eye». It would, as you humans say, depend on your perspective."
is a thing that could totally happen.
