Once he leaves the - self-help meeting, Prime goes to his list of things to do. A lot of it has to do with Perinixu's temple and the acolyte responsible for bringing the goddess here. And magic, always magic. In particular, creating a stack-able set of portals-necklaces with limited amounts of mana is a challenge Prime hasn't encountered before. Even he can't manage it, not in the time frame that he'd like it to be finished.
So, he does the obvious thing. He outsources. He's not the only mage in the world, not even close, and he just so happens to be extremely rich. He asks (well, asks and then pays) a talented stoneshaper to make the necklaces in one fell swoop, and then spends several hours bugging significantly less busy mage healers at hospitals to make the portals. He only manages to get three sets, but he deems this 'better than nothing.' Especially considering most mages don't have a strong enough bloodline to manage a portal on their own. Just three was difficult to get, and required a lot of teamwork.
With that done, he heads off to Perinixu's temple, to shower Spring with gifts. In the sense that he will hand them to her, and then ask her nicely to use them to heal people.

Cypress thinks that Prime is incredibly depressing.
"Do you want me to give you - pointers of what I like to do in my spare time?"

"Okay. Puzzles are fun - not just the picture ones, but logic puzzles and such. You probably don't have Sudoku, but I'm particularly fond of that one. I'll grab a book of it for you, if you'd like. Reading's fun, depending on the author - I can recommend a few of Chamomile's, but I'm not sure how useful that would be. Watching television or movies is a delightful novelty, though I find that movies are best with company. Fishing is surprisingly soothing, I couldn't tell you why. I wouldn't do it all the time, or even every week, but every now and then is nice."

"I can get you a computer and some movies to play on it," says Ice. "Phix and Max could get you movies, too, if you want them without everybody having daemons. I'm not sure how you ought to handle the company part, although Spring might be interested in the movies in their own right."

"I'll ask. All parties involved, please don't try to play matchmaker or - something," sighs Prime. "It wouldn't work and would only annoy me." He looks at his sister. "And no yelling."

"Why is it that no matter what I do, I'm the bad guy? Behold, how I'm trying to be reasonable!"

"I will not trouble Spring with the idea," says Ice. "At least for the foreseeable future."

"Eeeeee!" Pause. "Okay now I really don't know what to say, though. It's not like you and he got all dramatic like you and Lorina did -"
