FICLET: I Am the Sleepless Tomorrow (Yuri!!! on Ice, Madoka Magica AU)

There are times when you have to take a plot bunny out behind the shed and quietly do away with it before it eats everything in sight. So when I was hit with an awful, soul-crushing fusion idea for Yuri!!! on Ice and Puella Magi Madoka Magica -- in which Yuri Plisetsky is essentially Akemi Homura, a once sweet and charming child turned bitter and cold-hearted by a thousand failed timeloops in which he's been unable to stop his friends from dying or turning into witches -- I had to bash out this ficlet and throttle the concept at the source.

Tidied up from the original anon posting at fail_fandomanon. Title from the Madoka ED Magia by Kalafina. Some text modified from Madoka EP 10. Warning for Madoka-canon-typical violent character death.
