Put some in his hands? It might be able to absorb it through the skin,” Pepper advised as the woman nodded in reply. Doing as she was told she played a few in his hands, though it only took seconds for the gold pellets to change color as it turned black. “Goodness… that must be serious, the color of the pellets changed so quickly,” she mentioned to Pepper. 

Pepper was struggling to pay attention; she needed painkillers but was too tired and in pain. “How are you feeling Tony?” she whispered softly as made an effort to stand to move over to Tony’s bed. He was in pain still and was sweating a bit.
