If you don't mind, I'll step in here, let me know if I'm being too confrontational.
This one is flat out because this is the main reason why Hana is mad at her to begin with
Continuing on with Silas being the target would only serve to make Hana madder. We need a solution to the whole Hana-Yumika schism, not something to make it bigger.
And on a related note, she might do something to Big Sis, or Nanami if she thinks they're a "problem"
I agree that encouraging Yumika into yandere is not fixing the situation in front of us, although I'd be curious if this was the only choice to influence this. A lot of the work we'd gonna need to do to fix this fight is probably on Shinohara's side, in this option.
Yumika vs. Nanami is a legitimately scary Yandere fight, but I think Big Sis vs. Yumika only really ends one way.
This option has he delve back into something she once was and never wants to be again. You'll notice that it refers to actions she took TOWARDS Hana a long time ago. A story that Hana has mentioned in times past, mentioning that it was unpleasant.
Its an option that very much jeopardizes her relationships. Hana is already mad at her for acting without care for herself, a revision to an earlier time may break the entire drama club into two factions permanently. And even if it doesn't any action taken against Silas will not be received nicely. And we are rapidly approving a point where Madea is going to try Something, maleveolent or not, with the intention of getting Silas on the SC's side. it just doesn't seem safe for anyone...
I respectfully disagree. Assuming it's this incident or something similar, (which I am because speculating on unseen events will get us nowhere considering we would only have two people's heavily emotionally influenced opinions) it seems like Shinohara is mad because Yumika goes off the handle to protect those she cares about. That's not a bad thing, especially in this case, and I'm not convinced her 'just' trusting us won't provoke Yumika if Maeda does something to us anyway.
If she develops a crush on us, and we pull the trigger on forming a relationship, we're in a unique position to try and help Yumika understand what is and is not reasonable responses to people antagonizing people you like. We
could do this as her friend, but as her boyfriend we're in a stronger position, while at the same time teaching her that not everything will work out the worst way every time. If we stick around and don't get mad at her if/when she
does do something a bit rash, she'll slowly start to feel better about herself and likely come to us for advice if she considers doing something.
To put it another way; The best way to help Yumika is to maneuver these two into a position where they'll communicate more. A relationship is the perfect way to do that, considering all the other benefits that will come with it.
This one... This one seems fine. Nothing particularly noteworthy here. Just her trying to grow Silas to be a person defined by a little more then otaku-ness.
You'll also notice that nobody is picking it up for some reason...
I mean, it just seems like an enormous waste of potential here, I think. We're too busy for extra work, and Yumika gives favors to her friends anyway.
Let her leave VS She'll Stay
We had unique access to her mind this round. She's not okay. Or maybe she's normal. We don't actually know. Either way she needs to deal with these emotions, and maybe being in proximity of someone who can twist and amplify emotions that is currently mad at Yumika may not be the best way to deal with that problem.
On the other hand, her not showing up at all may be just as destabilizing as her showing up. She's been avoiding Hana all day and then she misses that one time where she is forced to interact with her? This may start the faction war she was worried about without her even being there.
If it starts a Faction War regardless of her being there, her
being there is not going to help matters. If Shinohara starts anything (not that she would), it would be better for Silas to deal with that over Yumika.
