Flash's eyes widened, and he shot off towards what was left of Spider. I don't want ANYTHING! he thought, trying to make the thought as loud as he could, I don't--! A very small part of his mind, the tiny bit that wasn't furious or confused, quietly replied, I wanted to watch Blade Runner with her. She would have liked it.

Alcina was already standing beside Steel Spider's broken form by the time Flash had arrived. "Blade Runner? Can't say I've heard of that one." she replied. Now that there wasn't anyone around, it should be safe to speak freely. What might happen would be a give away anyway.
"I'm giving the wrong impressions again though, aren't I?" she said with a small smile. She had with Deadpool at first. Best to make her intentions clear now.
"I have no intention of doing anything to harm you, or her."

He came to an abrupt stop, still glaring. "Alright," he snapped, crossing his arms, "Then what ARE your intentions?" He was pointedly not looking at the pitiful, partially crushed figure on the floor.

"Part satisfying curiosity. Part granting a desire." she replied. "Curiosity has partially been answered...it's not just guilt that you're feeling. You honestly liked her." she said with a soft smile. "So now there's only one or two questions I have left." she continued, then held her hand up, a glowing purple orb about the size of a marble appearing hovering above her hand. "And I grant a desire."

Woooah.... Flash's eyes widened. He had honestly been surprised out of been angry or upset by that point... at least for the time being. "Um... Okaaaay...?"

Alcina smiled. "Alright? Next question then. I know you want her back, and bringing life to things is next to nothing for me. If you truely want her back...I can make that happen. But do you want her back exactly as she was...or, with a bit of a new upgrade?" she asked.

"I'm... not sure what you mean," he replied slowly, "... And that's kind of her decision, isn't it?" Still, his stomach had done a strange little swoop at the thought of Spider coming back.

Alcina's smile grew slightly. "True..." she began. "But then she'll have to try and get my attention later to get the 'upgrade.' I'm asking, do you want her just as she was...a robot, with little to no knowledge of the outside world or human emotions."
The orb took a bit of a magenta tint. "Leave her a robot, but allow her the ability of human emotions."
The orb turned a strange light red color. "Or...do you want her to be human?"

Flash blinked. "How the hell should I know?" he asked, sounding a tad irritable again. "... Yeah, I... like her. But I've known her for less than 48 hours, and this is a decision that she should make for herself. Also," he added, cocking an eyebrow, "It seemed like she had emotions before. She was definitely very... confused. I don't think she would have been if she didn't have the ability to feel." Honestly, if it had been his decision, he would have picked making her human, just because that seemed... much simpler. Being a robot with human emotions had the tendency to get very complicated very fast, as Star Trek proved. Ah, Data... Focus. The point was, it really wasn't his decision. At all. Period.

Alcina smirked, then shrugged slightly. "Very well." she replied. Well...curiosity was satisfied now. She may just have to keep an ear open for the robot now. In case she did want an upgrade. Of course...she'd have to really want it.
The orb reverted back to it's purple color, and gently floated through her hand and to the ground through Steel Spider's chest plate. A split second later, Steel's eyes, as well as any part of her form that was open, flooded with a purple light. The wireing inside of her snapped to life, latching out to other parts of her and attatching them back together. Metal melted back together and every dent smoothed out. A few short seconds later, Steel lay on the ground with absolutely no physical damage. Another second later, the purple light in her eyes faded.

Feeling oddly awkward, Flash knelt down beside her. "Hey," he said, a little too cheerfully. Forced kind of cheer. After all, he'd almost... Well, the blood spatter on his chest kind of told its own nasty little tale. "How many fingers am I holding up?" he asked, holding out two fingers.

Steel blinked a moment, then took another look at his hand. "Two..." she replied. "What...what happened?"

"Well," Flash said, taking a deep breath, "You kind of died, I ... got a little upset, went on a bit of a... erm... rampage is such a strong word... I punched someone and sort of let most of the inmates out accidentally, and then a magical lady brought you back to life after a thrilling round of 20 questions!" he concluded, beaming.

Steel Spider blinked a moment, then glanced around the room. There was no one in the room besides Flash. "Magic?" Then again...she did feel rather different. Like something...she wasn't running on the same...whatever it was, it was better. "Rampage? Why were you so upset?" she asked, turning back to him.

((Right. Me too.))
Flash raised an eyebrow. "Um... Because I said that I would come back, and by the time that I remembered, you were a pancake?" he said blankly. "That's generally enough to make someone upset." He was fairly certain that there had been more to it than that, especially after that annoyingly in-depth conversation with ....his fairy godmother.... but he wasn't going to deal with that right then.
