Probably never? Unless one follows us through a crack in reality (and we're a Flower and an Octopus, we're kind of really, really good at slipping through cracks) or another Great One who can make Hunters falls in when the cracks widen.
We might be able to make them in the future. Magical Girl healing is potent shit, so they may be able to survive it long enough for us to learn how to do it.

Since the whole 'My Soul is a Rock!' thing makes physcial pain a bit less of a factor, it's mostly just a task of finding someone willing to undergo a fairly disturbing procedure for the sake of increased power. Think of it as a less bleakly obsessed version of Kirika Witching herself out to help Oriko complete her plan.

Oh, I forgot that bleakly obsessed is Homura's middle name. Wonder what she'd prefer? Mami-tier plant tendrils, Sayaka-tier healing factor, 'budding' Clones or just the ability to tear big holes in reality and drop asteroids on people?

Clones or healing is my bet. She often has issue tanking hits during Walpurgis, and she needs more hands to throw out firepower during timestops to save on grief.
Hell, the first and last we could probably just whip up an Augur to "Cast" such a "spell" anyway. *Shrug* The last one is a Spell... I think? I know the Rejects in the Hunter's Dream cast it and the first is basically the Augur of

All you need is an eye, soaked in sufficent insight that it becomes a microcosm of the Great Sea above. Ruby does not lack for eyes. Hopefully she willl never have to bloom, if only because of how disturbing it will be for everyone else.

What, do we have Eyes growing in all our flowers or something? I'm not sure what you mean by soaking them in insight either. Unless you mean leaving them in the presence of a Great One or eating the eyes/slugs that reflect the Greater Universe/Great Sea. In which case we have Augurs for everybody since we are a Great One, if very young.

Not all Ruby's flowers have eyes in, just the one that is usually very tightly closed and looks like a human head. When that is fully unfolded, she is both very vulnerable, since it is her main power node, and capable of doing horrible quantities of damage. Think of it as her equivalent of Amygdalas brain-laser or Ebrietas' overclocked Call Beyond.
... Oh. That's what she was worrying about in the first update and being hurt. Can she regrow them just fine and/or does she make herself vulnerable if she hands them out as Augurs?

The first update was more fearing the emotional pain of confirming without any doubt that she wasn't home, and so because of Fate, would never see her parents or family again. On the eyes front, she can grow them back, but it's slow, and losing any of them will reduce her powerlevel. Generally, it would be far quicker just to plant new ones in her and let the coldblood at the heart of her flower convert them into a more useful form.
Eyes make excellent batteries for eldritch power, after all. Why do you think the Witches of Hemwick stapled them on anywhere they would fit? Once the eyes leave her, she can't use them as Arcane capacitors any more, but damage to them doesn't do anything but mean you can't use the eyes any more, rather than hurting her.

... We could probably find some recently dead corpses in and near Witch Barriers. *Shrug*
Does just adding more eyes increase her power or is their a cap to how many she can have within her?
Also, I want to give Cutethullu all the hugs and headpats right now.

Her innate Great One-ness charges her eyes, but since she's still quite young, it's quite slow to do so, meaning that it is possible that she runs out of power. After a certain level (what she's at now, because her dad took great pleasure in spoiling her rotten) eyes start to hit diminishing returns, because she just can't charge them all up fully in the average time before she uses enough power to drain them again.
She can deliberately focus to try to speed that charging up and give herself more power, but again, she's young, and overclocking her powers like that leads to mental degredation. (In this canon, this is what happened to Rom. He burnt out his mind experimenting with his power, leaving him like the gatekeeper, a barely sentient husk with only the duty to keep the Ritual of Mensis hidden keeping him from just lying down to sleep forever in his Lake-dream.)

*Shrug* Makes sense. You did call them capacitors afterall, and if she can't charge them up enough to keep them useful then there's not much point in keeping more. Yet anyway.
*Tilts head in thought* Keeping some around soaking in her just so she can hand them out as Augurs without biting into her power when she needs to is an idea though. *Shrug* Well, I think I'm out of questions for now, thank you.

Anyone else have any questions while I'm still around? I'll be lingering around for another half-hour or so before I go back to the joys of powerpoint assembly.

Then I'll see you all tomorrow for the next segment of Cutethulu and Muderface's Kyuubey Genocide Fun Time Hour. Now enjoy yourselves while I channel all of my insomnia into flow charts and diagrams on the cognition of large-group coordination.
Ah Insomnia, how would we humans get anything done without you.

Poor Homu's probably confused about whether she actually broke reality or she herself finally broke under too much trauma.

Hello everyone. I've given my presentation and haven't been told to leave the campus in disgrace, and outsourced the research for the library diving I'm doing tomorrow, so in 4 hours or so, when I've gotten up from my nap to ensure I actually sleep 6 hours today, I'll start writing.
