They won't think anything. Kyubey maintains the masquerade. The only reason Hitomi's mother knows anything is because we explicitly asked Kyubey to stop mind-wiping her. We'll have to make a similar request when we go to talk to therapists.
Exactly the correct response, beat me to it. Thanks.

The only reason I can think of for timestop not working is that they've been informed of how Homura's timestop works and have already taken steps to prevent it, like setting up a contact trap around them with frost or something. Alternately, taking out Homura first.

just had a bad thought and if I need to suffer it then so do you
it is very likely that not all of the sisters victims were witchbombed before hand, and the soujo's convinced them to just hand over their gem, thinking that it was an out from the hellish magical girl life, only yo fall over lifelessly once the sisters got past the hundred meter range

well kyubey somehow figured out how homuras timestop works, and seems to be all too happy spilling the beans to other groups, speak I wouldn't discount the possibility

Yuki hadn't even heard that Homura existed. Rionna, probably the same. On top of that, Homura has already survived a hundred-plus loops and I do not anticipate her running into anything she can't handle in this one. So I don't think that we need to worry about scenarios like "What if they've already taken Homura out".
I think that essentially all we need to do is make sure that Oriko+Kirika, Sayaka, and Kyouko are sufficiently well-prepared that they can survive fifteen seconds in combat and get a warning out. If they can do that, we can get a timestop off and that's that. Past that, we'd want to set up basic wards so they don't get ganked in their sleep. I doubt we'll need much more that that.
That said, I would prefer if we could whack the Soujus before they even get to Mitakihara. Heroes should act, after all. What resources do we have that would allow us to intercept them for a takedown in the next city over? Alternatively, do we think that we could coordinate with Mami and Yuki to set up some kind of city-scale warning net?

Well, about taking out Homura first, good luck to them.
What I'm saying is, it's not like Homura is a badass kuudere Meguca with a decade and a half of experience of killing witches and taking names, a collection of guns and ammunition sufficient to fund a small revolution and gorgeous hair, except that she is.
Well, we've only seen Homura lose two times in anime:
First to Walpurgisnacht, when she tried her honest best to take the city-wrecking Witch on her own
And the second is to Mami Tomoe, who I now suspect can arbitrarily connect Ribbons to people she knows without their input whatsoever and who made a Ribbon clone with Ribbon muskets firing Ribbon bullets and I don't fucking know how she even controlled that.
Considering Mami is on our side, they'd better bring Walpurgisnacht, I guess.
I'd suggest asking Oriko to divine their location once she got a hang on her powers. I have several ideas already how to go about that, depends on how Oriko's powers work exactly.
But, well, it sets in an unfortunate precedent where we go around the country and yank the gems off girls before they even met us.
Which Kyubey can absolutely use to his advantage but it's not like he doesn't have any other secrets he could spill out at a moment's notice.
So I would suggest finding them, sending in a Redshirt ( a Seykuu clone ), and after ( and if, I mean, alternative timelines and all, while Oriko told us Rionna would be reasonable ) the Soujous demonstrate they are still their lovably insane magpie selves by attempting to steal a Gem that Seykuu clone doesn't have, we timestop gank them.

Believe you mean lichbombed. Granted, said victims probably weren't witchbombed either, but that's not the one that deals with unexpected range issues.
Speaking of, soul gem repeaters. Going to have to examine the gem-body connection... ah, but that's a minor concern at the moment.

I've been trying to raise the matter for almost a year
So yeah, approximately three IC days
I feel Ike this is one of the workarounds to our limited range ability, considering Sabrina somehow controls all the Grief particles within her range without any problem
Speaking of
I propose to abolish the outdated system of measuring Grief in marbles and offer a new unit: Ångströms!
One Ångström divided by one cubic angstrom always equals one angst, since Grief is universal in density.
Angst is a constant you can always measure by determining the teenage girls's, well, angst.
Edit: so, to be clear, one Ångström is amount of angst within one cubic angstrom.

... wait if Soujo is coming for Sabrina why not be really obvious for her? Big old witchy feeling.

That's... actually a fantastic idea. Because that goes hand-in-hand with having some hilariously powerful defensive griefhax running that'd guarantee they lose the instant they get near us.
Well, two hiccups: Would they know to look for the beacon of witchiness, and would our friends be able to tolerate it for possibly a week?

Remind me, have we warned Kyouko and Masami about these lunatics yet?

Based off the wiki she goes after powerful MGs. If she knows Sabrina does grief shenanigans then she's likely to head towards it.

Because while Rionna was busy fucking about with souls, the Soujus were studying the blade.
There might've been a few who were Witchbombed and decided that handing their soul to a collector was a good third option.
I wouldn't quite call that a loss. Sure, she didn't kill it, but killing Walpurgisnacht is not a thing magical girls do. Plenty of girls don't even manage to survive it, and Homura's been surviving one Walpurgisnacht a month for years.

She did fight Walugi for approximately one hundred times, didn't she?
Well, it becomes slightly easier to survive when your exit strategy is gtfo this timeline.
We have only warned Homura about them so far. We talked about them to everyone who went with us to Asunaro during our Asunaro trip but we didn't mention that they would come to Mitakihara according to Oriko

well she is coming her to hunt powerful magical girls, ergo sabrina, and when you're hunting a grief bender there aren't that many ways to look at a "WITCH" signal covering half of the city
the idea of the soujo's convincing girls to just hand over their souls without a fight is something I can honestly see them doing a lot, like we know they were going to mitakihara in canon to hunt mami before they got sided
tracked, its likely that they could just break her with one of the bombs and then offer their "service" as a third option out of the system. I can see them getting a lot od their gems that way

Then we really need to warn them, and by extension lichbomb Kyouko.

No need for lichbomb; the old assumption, that soul gems are "just" the source of power and a de-gemmed girl is powerless, still holds.

After discussing PMAS with a friend of mine who just caught up with the story, we randomly came up with a name for the Exclusionary/ Privacy Dome (we're still trying to name it, right?). Two actually: La zona crepuscolare or Ai confini della realtà*. Both mean the same thing: The Twilight Zone. How fitting for something that may or not be a pseudo Witches Barrier >_>.
*This was the Italian name for the series, while La zona crepuscolare is a literal rendering of the English name.

It's in the schedule for tomorrow, as "warn our locals about the soujos"
We told them about them existing in the context of a potential threat in Asunaro, not that they will arrive in Mitakihara.
