Desertion and 400.7a/b

Do rules 400.7a and b apply to the permanent you get from casting Desertion on a spell?

400.7a Effects from spells, activated abilities, and triggered abilities that change the characteristics of a permanent spell on the stack continue to apply to the permanent that spell becomes.
400.7b Prevention effects that apply to damage from a permanent spell on the stack continue to apply to damage from the permanent that spell becomes.

For example, if my opponent casts Grizzly Bears and turns it colorless with Moonlace while it's on the stack, and if I subsequently cast Desertion on the Bear, do I get a green 2/2 or a colorless one?
