It's been busy dealing with the aftermath of the storm, and Pepper isn't in the station as often as she usually is. She has been keeping an eye out for Costigan every so often, wondering if or when he would show up and whether there would be a chance to lure him back to work or not.

When she sees him during some of her downtime from repair work and he's warmer than she was expecting, Pepper grins broadly. "Hey! Good to see you again." She waves, redirecting from her previous path towards him instead. "Have you had a chance to talk to Valdis yet? It's been kinda crazy around here."
