rejoined

Came together again

Rejoined is the past tense of rejoin, which has two distinct meanings.

One is to join again after separation: She rejoined the group after her phone call, He rejoined the army.

The other is to reply, especially sharply or in retort: "That's not what I meant," she rejoined.

Context usually makes clear which sense applies.
