So... I just read the whole of this quest over the last week. I'm... rather new to quests in general, really, but this is probably one of the most awesome things I've read in a long time.
 
Sabrina: ............. huh
Homura: What?
Sabrina: I just got another voice in my head.
Homura: ......... *sweatdrop*
 
I just thought of an idea for when we do SCIENCE later:

Given that energy created by witchstuff persists even after it leaves our range (Prima Luce, for example), it seems like it should be possible to do nuclear transmutation.

The question, I suppose, is if we should actually try that. It does seem like it would be a bit... er... energetic.

The solution is simple: do it all in n-space, under a grief shield. Solid grief doesn't seem to be adversely affected by physical effects unless Sabrina wills it.
 
Hmm.

It's been a really long time since I was new to this thread, so I'm actually quite curious about a new reader's perspective.

@jojotastic777

Would you mind answering a few questions?

What was your favourite moment so far in the quest? The least favourite?

What was something we handled well, and what was something we handled badly?

What's your current greatest concern about Sabrina's future?

Favorite Moment: Probably when we flew with Mami.

Least Favorite: That's tough... Hmm... Probably when we collapsed our Barrier and a feather fell out, so we promised not to make any more barriers. I was really looking forward to SCIENCE! involving barriers.

Something We Handled Well: I think that we've overall handled our friendship with Homura really well. That is made rather clear to me in the latest chapter, when she asks us to be there when she talks to Sayaka about her time traveling.

Something We Handled Badly: The end of "We've Got Hostiles". That... ended rather poorly. Like... we did what we intended to do, we stopped the fighting, but at a rather high cost.

Greatest Concern About Sabrina's Future: My most immediate source of concern is QB saying something he shouldn't, be that witchbombing... really anyone, but especially Mami, or potentialbombing Homura, or something else that I haven't thought of. That... could have severe consequences. Also feathers, though that seems rather far off at the moment.

Oooh, I wanna compare notes since I only joined not that long ago (Okay, only a couple of weeks... give or take... so not that new, but still... I should've thought of this... le sigh.)

Least Favorite Moment: How we handled lich/ meta bombing Mami... as "Madoka: Different Story" and "Magia Record" shows, Mami learning truth will always be a painful experience for her, and just as painful to see her in her most grieved moment... it was hard to read and reminded me... of rather personal experiences.

Favorite Moment: The Asunaro Arc hands down. The whole arc was undilutedly epic.

Something we've handled well: I agree with @jojotastic777, how we've handled Homura, but I'll amend and say how we've handled Homura and Sayaka overall. Seeing how they've improved as people compared to canon is a testament to that success. Sabrina's relation with Mami is also heartwarming.

Something we've handled badly: Also agree, "We've got Hostiles" was handled... poorly would be an understatement. I actually went back and read through the discussions that led up to... Sabrina's greatest regret. Just... there had to be a better way to resolve that whole dilemma.

Concerns about Sabrina's Future: Personally I'm holding to the theory that Dedolere is affecting things in the Quest from a possible/ alternate future, trying to ensure its own creation. A second concern is that I do think the idea of the Soul Bomb... if leveraged by Kyubey in a certain way... could cause Sabrina to have an existential crisis. However, considering who we all are, I have faith we can weather these concerns and work through a solution.

Day 42: I have integrated with the familiars quite well. They have yet to realise my 'fresh meat' status. More observation is required.

:o Oh Madokami I meant to write that in my journaldonteatmeeeeeee

*Jumps out of window*

Oi! I'M THE FRESHEST MEAT THERE IS!

Also, anyone else like the idea of Reactive Grief Reinforcement?

Random enemy Meguca: "But how? How can you be so durable?!"

Sabrina: "NANOGRIEF, SISTER. IT HARDENS IN RESPONSE TO NEARBY IDIOCY"

Edit: the more I think about it the more I like the idea- it makes use of one of Sabrina's greatest talents (vastly increased processing speed to co-ordinate the nano particles) and leverages that into a boost that all but negates one of our greatest weaknesses (melée combat). Admittedly it is more of a defensive measure meant to buy time rather than decisively win, but I can still think of several times when near inviolable armour would have been useful. In fact, lets move beyond Armstrong and become....

I'm not exactly brand new, I've been here a month or two, but I could probably fill this out as well

favorite moment: probably the ones involving us discovering that we could give witches hope. seeing that revelation gave me myself immense hope for the future, a close second would be when we had the picnic with everyone, seeing all of our friends that we made including hitomi and nagisa

least favorite: likely when we decided no more labyrinth research, I mean I get it considering feathers reacted at the same time. although that might have been the extended trance state, but I was looking forward to the science we could get from it and just having a hidden place we could store stuff and hide in with all the luxuries of home. though the 4-space thing was a very good consolation prize

something we handled well: I'd have to say that we handled the asunaro arc well, as well as how we brought up the metabomb with everyone. I know I'm in the minority but I actually likes pmkm and I thought we delt with the saints and especially kanna in a fairly goos way
something I feel we handled badly: two things, the end of we got hostiles and when we sort of threatened kirika, of course that's beating a dead horse at this point but still
concerns about the future: I'd have to say I'm worried about the day when things start to grow large enough that we just can't manage it all or even oversee it all. we're already reaching that point but at some point we really are going to hit a wall where it just winds up out of our control, and I'm worried about how sabrina will react to that. especially when the masquerade breaks down which seems like it might the inevitable conclusion to sabrinas beef with kyubey over the memory wipes
