Just a nitpick. Homura only messed up the Math problem because she had not been in school all year (it was March so she missed all of September through February) in episode 10. Also episode 10 Homura (or moemura) is an entirely different creature but I agree with Slytherin given the Madoka reaosn and Rebellion. Also Madoka is in the mightiest of houses for only Hufflepuff can have the might badge as their sigil.

By the way, will Kyubey be appearing as the Dark Lord's minions? Maybe instigating Dementor attacks to arouse maximum despair in magical girls, so they'll turn into 'Puella Magi'-type witches super-quick?

Interesting, although I foresee problems when Homura's loyalty to Madoka, come in conflict with the loyalty the Slytherins demand from their own house members. It may not matter for the House Quidditch matches (Madoka's personality is too non-confrontational for her to make it matter), but when Voldemort or the next Dark Lord rises, and Homura is forced to choose between joining the Death Eaters or joining [insert parents' names here] in the afterlife...
I like the feathers you added to Mami's hat, although it may get her in trouble, due to school uniform regulations.

Hmm, well, there's nothing anywhere that says that Slytherins HAVE to become Death Eaters, in fact, there are probably more than a few Slytherins that never had anything really to do with Voldemort or that kind of thing. Homura's loyalty will always be to Madoka first and foremost. Nothing is standing in between her and Madoka. I have a feeling the other Slytherins would figure out that she's not one to mess with or pressure very quickly, and mostly leave her alone. Either that, or she'll become the next Dark Lord, which is highly likely considering her development in Rebellion.
And in response to your other comment, I hadn't really thought about Kyubey at all. I would imagine in this AU there would be Puella Magi at all, it would simply be them as witches/wizards growing up at Hogwarts (or an equivalent Japanese wizarding school, I suppose). I'm not planning on writing anything about the AU, so I hadn't thought too hard about how to integrate the stories; I was mostly interested in the Sorting. Using Dementors is an interesting idea, though, one that I think Kyubey would use without a second thought. I wonder if the Kiss would work on a Magi considering their souls have already been separated from their bodies....
Or alternatively, if I did completely integrate the two worlds and both of their magic systems, it could be possible that Dementors are Minions or even become Wraiths in the Madokaverse. Like somehow the Ministry might know a little bit about Puella Magi and managed to trap a Witch for study, and the Dementors are her Minions? I mean, J.K. Rowling never explained where Dementors come from, so it wouldn't be a stretch to make the connection if someone were to write a crossover.
Haha, yeah, the feathers. I was trying to imitate her magical girl hat; I couldn't resist. XD

Slytherins don't have to become Death Eaters, but a lot of Death Eaters ARE Slytherins, and I imagine those that are will put a lot of pressure on fellow alumni and the alumni's children to join them in serving Voldemort.
As for Homura's loyalties, I agree with your views, but I imagine her classmates will suspect them anyways- with the obvious exception of Madoka, whose loyalty to her friends will be a saving grace- because of the problems mentioned above. If the Death Eaters, the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, or Voldemort himself tries to force the issue... well, Homura's smart enough to use "The Indirect Approach" described in www.fanfiction.net/s/3355032/1….
Dementors will probably sense the girls' souls are in their soul gems, and try to bite the gems, the way Homura did in 'Rebellion'. I imagine the soul gems will make the girls highly resistant to the effects of a Dementor's aura, but "highly resistant" does not equal "immune."
