There are things to do, of course, besides being Aya's cuddle buddy. Prime is usually quite busy, and now is no exception. Just because he's personally out of mana, doesn't mean he's utterly useless. His plane's got mages in it, after all - and many of them owe him favors or are amenable to being paid. And they need mirrors, for communication. After longer than was strictly prudent spent comforting Aya, he bids her goodbye and goes to handle the less glamorous moments of being him. That is, talking to people, asking for favors, paying favors, persuading them to say yes, they'll use some of their precious magic stores to make mirrors.
Ironically enough, the one thing missing when he's finished is the mirrors themselves. Easy enough to fix, with Revelation. But he'll take care of it tomorrow - he's tired, and it's been a long and complicated and emotionally exhausting 'day,' even if he doesn't properly have them anymore. Sleep, and then he'll get back to dealing with it all. The mirrors, first, they're easiest, then continuing to figure out what to do about Aya.
When he wakes, he goes to talk to a demon about that. Knock, knock, calling Inferno, is Revelation in?

"Too is an obvious answer," clarifies Prime. "We would never go outside. Instead of you, though, I have no idea."

Aya makes a little noise that neither agrees nor disagrees, and squirms again, and puts her face on his shoulder and sighs.

"I am pretty tormentable right now. I'm not sure if you're going to get anywhere with that plan in the long run without at least kissing me."

It's sort of hard to tell. She has the Adarin with the killer poker face. He just sort of - looks vaguely thoughtful. For a little while.
And then:
"Okay."
And then he tilts her head up to the proper angle and kisses her.

Mmmkiss.
She flings herself absolutely into it, and - wrenches back into a more restrained posture when she notices she's doing it. But she's not going to be the one to break the kiss.

He's a bit more restrained about the kiss, but - yeah, he is actively kissing her. For a while. He is five centuries old, he knows how to breathe through his nose. Also: more than just theoretical experience kissing. He's got that, too.
"Did that help or make it worse?" he laughs when he deems that there has been Enough Kisses For Now.

Oh, look, neck nuzzles gets a reaction out of him. The reaction is a small hitch in his breath, and then he carries on as normal.
"Fair. All right then. Please keep being happy, I would like for you to keep being happy."

Mmmmmm.
"I feel like if I speculated on what would've happened if you'd gotten necklaced instead would sound too much like wheedling."

"I still wouldn't have taken that long."
Nuzzle. Nuzzles are fun even if they don't cause Encouraging Breathing.

"Pah. I tried."
They are very fun! Also very nice. Even without Encouraging Breathing.
