By Oriko's prediction, she's here because word of us has spread far, already. As far as Europe, at least.
Hey, an icepick is sort of like a hammer. Pointier. But I think we're in the right path.
OK, how about this:
We greet Riona with a laser to the face.

Oh, random. Niko asked us to let her know when Riona arrived, so we shouldn't forget!
I wonder how Homura's gonna feel in a second. Poor girl's probably gonna feel out of her depth, what with this new unknown and dangerous variable showing up in her city.
We should also remember to give Homu plently of hugs. Homu loves hugs, rigth? Right, of course.

And if it turns out it's not alcoholic, we have no excuse not to try it.
Mm. I'd rather avoid bringing in outside parties until we've gotten this chick's measure and become a little more acquainted. Fewer unknown variables, you know. And sending her off to Rin to do heals is something we should be able to take care of on the next vote.

Rionna is not American, and Sabrina definitely knows the difference. I'm pretty confident in Nadia.
Rionna has bullrushed all the way over here, and has no care of pleasantry. We can tip the scales towards civility, and learn about her faster while doing it.
Re: Rin and Akiko, I can't say how much time will pass? Or what Rionna has on her menu? Just being prepared. Soul powers might help. Rin has done stalwart service, we should offer her our best compensation, and what she wants is to see Akiko back up. Once that happens, we can deal with the buyer's remorse, sorry to say. We will learn many new curse words?
My greatest fear is what she might UN-intentionally do in moments should she mindspam Homura. We can abate this by agreement, I expect.

If she brought it, it's boozy.
Either we bet for her hostility, or her cooperation. If I go all in for friendly status, she IS a celebrity. She is unlikely to zap folks at random intentionally. We can be the sempai giving our newest residents a perk. In small measure, unknown variables like them - give us advantage this time. My expectation is that with Rionna's reputation for poor social skills, the additional girls will slow her just a bit. They will leave, so not too drastic effect.

I think we should tell soulguca that we have a secure means of communication (the privacy sphere) and explicitly demarcate conversations occurring inside and outside. That we'll start by having a conversation outside to introduce ourselves and then we'll go inside to discuss secure stuff relating to our plans or the big secrets of magical girls. Like as one of the first things.
This is an effective way of getting someone who isn't good at social that she will have a chance to talk about witches and such but she shouldn't do so until she's firmly within the sphere.
Mumi can be with whoever Mumi wants to be with. Don't be a jerk.

Have we met a lopsided rival? Depends upon if "Romantic Comedy" is going to be added to the mix. Urobuchi didn't build up a reputation for that. Shinbo, possible in his portfolio. Firnagzen, we are still experiencing. I'm not worried, external pressure seems unlikely to sway Mami.Mumi having proof that people really do love her isn't horrifying.
Please, craft your vote. Explain to everyone using the [] brackets and eckses.
The principle you state seems very relevant. We already have two facts implying Rionna may not be able to regulate herself in conversation. We could do better with your help. My candidate did not detail how to accomplish this step, just that we should try "abatement."
Go for it.
We need her refined communication, even if she has burning motivation. Sakura isn't potential dangerous, just unladylike. Rionna is probably not obeying boundaries. Example of doing it wrong....

Why is there a suggestion to telepathy Homura but not use her name?
If Sabrina is concerned that Rionna can tap telepathic calls, use a telephone. Homura has a phone. Text her. Sabrina can handle that level of multitasking.
Or, turn to Mami, who is conveniently close by, and speak to her out loud, using actual vibrating air molecules, and ask her to communicate with Homura.
If Rionna can eavesdrop on telepathic communication, AND telephone communication, well, she's clearly prepared for any reasonable level of communication security Sabrina can throw together on short notice with no prep, and she doubtless knows who Sabrina's friends are already.

Why is she even going to the trouble of contacting us directly? Whatever hack she has cannot possibly be cheaper than asking Nadia for an introduction. I am very deeply suspicious.

Good criticism.
Still going to conserve the words spoken, because the model is "surface thoughts conveyed as information." I think she might be tapping the person who's soul she is focused on. Therefore she cannot hear the call audio, but can perhaps understand which words were spoken, or ones that we speak internally. I'm going to think she isn't hooked into tech at all.
Thank you for improvement! Text isn't bad. We can do that!
My working theory of Rionna is "NO FILTER." If she can learn a fact, she feels she can use a fact. If we talk to someone and she hears it, Rionna might try to talk to that person next. Therefore, trying to buffer Homura from her attention.
As am I. Further, she KNOWS this is Mami's territory. Still it might not be hostility. I hope to get our buffer actions done BEFORE we transmit? She doesn't show off a refined triangulation ability, but IRL, keying the transmitter gives away a lot. And maybe you were once a "Sokyuu no Fafner" fan? lol
I want mostly to break the loop, and keep her from rummaging our contact list. Let Homura withdraw and coordinate for us.
