[Well well, isn't this a familiar face? Should be for at least some of you. Same strawberry blonde hair, same proper dress-suit and perfect hair and worried crease in her brow. Yep. It's Pepper alright.]

I'm back, for those of you wondering. Sorry about ... disappearing like that. Business I had to attend to. [Not at all awkward or uncomfortable about that, at least.] For anyone who doesn't recognize me from before, my name is Miss Virginia Potts, but feel free to call me Pepper.

[And with that? End goes the feed. She's not in the mood to lolly-gaggle.]

Hello.

[didknowthat]

Hi. [You're.. Castiel, aren't you? Recalling names, hnn. It's been a while.]

Cas, wasn't it?

[trenchcoatedly]

Yes. And you're Pepper.

[didknowthat]

[...So astute.]

Yes. Sorry. It's been a while for me.

[trenchcoatedly]

I'm not offended. Did you leave and return by choice?

[didknowthat]

Yes, actually. Bit of business I had to take care of at home that, unfortunately, couldn't wait. Suits with big wallets and egos to match trying to take Stark Industries for their own. And with Tony and I being the only CEO's, things could have gone very bad with the both of us gone.

[It takes him a bit to parse through this. Corporate speak is tough on him.]

But you're both here now.

[didknowthat]

Yes. We are. [Not that it helps anything back home, but.]

[trenchcoatedly]

So, your business in jeopardy now.
