"Holy crap," Tony murmurs, running a shocked hand through his hair. "What the hell did she get herself into?"

The Goddess laughs, a light and tinkling sound. "Oh, Ariel's getting all the attention right now, but my Juniper..." she sighs, shaking her head and looking into the distance almost as if she's proud. "Wait until the universe sees what she's about to stir up." "Oh god," Tony sighs, dry.

"So, will you help?" the Goddess asks, cheerful and hopeful, turning her eyes back to him.

"Do I get to be alive again?" he asks, gesturing down at himself.

Tony gasps as his body instantly becomes more substantial and his mind clears even further. He looks down at himself and is shocked to see that he is all blue and white and...well, slightly sparkly.
