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.

"Ugh. I'm kind of glad mine's got Isabella, now. I mean, I already was because she's pretty cool, and like - my brother's hopelessly in love and it's fucking concentrated adorable, but the - getting him out of that - whatever the hell that is - is nice."

Hug.
"I will punch yours in the face for you, if you want? Pin him to a wall and yell at him until he apologizes?"

"If you want? I mean, I'm used to this shit by now, it's just depressing as fuck."

"I bet. I'll try to help, that's bullshit. We're - there's - we're a fucking team, my brother and I, and you and yours. It is bullshit, that that happened, and I want it to stop."

And then her alt is very thoroughly distracted from depressing talk of neglectful brothers!

After they're done (it takes a while) Zeviana heads home and marches up to Ice and Cypress's house. She knocks on the door.

Ice is home. She opens the door, but she's on the phone, and holds up a finger in a wait gesture. Path hops off her shoulder and looks for Lecasryn; Path is not on the phone.

Lecasryn is nearby, and she leans down and gives Path a friendly sort of nuzzle.
"Zevi needs to borrow her brother. The older version of him is a jackass and we'd like him to stop it."

"We noticed," says Path dryly, "that he isn't as good as our version. What are you going to do exactly?"

"We're sort of making it up as we go along, but we need him to help."

"Cool, thanks. Zevi - kitchen."
Zeviana nods, and heads off to the kitchen to collect her brother.
"By the way," says Lecasryn. "While I'm here - we are really fucking glad that they met you."

The brother in question is making soup.
"Hmm? Oh, hey, Ana, back from - um." Cypress coughs.

"We're glad we met them too. Why are you?" wonders Path.
Isabella glances up from her phone call but is still talking about antitrust laws with her lawyer.

"Because it turns out that if he was left to his own devices he stops caring about his own happiness and gets super utilitarian about everything. Also, you're super adorable," says Lecasryn.

"... I'm really hoping that the reason you need to borrow me has nothing to do with why you were gone for three days?"

"Don't be stupid, the fossil's me, she's not into men. Also you're married, and that actually matters to you, so. No, I need you to talk to your jackass alt. The old one."

"Because he's being an ass to old-me and he needs to stop it right this instant."
