Henry raises a hand in greeting. "It's Henry!" He says mater of factly. "Anyway, I don't actually know how any of this stuff works, though I know a bit of needle work. I was mostly going to see if there was anything broken here I might be able to reconstruct.... But if you're fine with teaching me, I could probably do with a new knife. Should be a good practice exercise right?"

After rolling out of bed and eating his breakfast, Henry sat there for a bit, wondering what to do. There were several places he'd peeked into the previous day, but he hadn't looked very hard once he gathered what their purpose was. Eventually, he decided to go to the area that had appeared to be a forge, to see if there was anything of worth there.

498
Henry nods.
"Then I'll leave you two to solve this yourselves."
With that he left them to wander the area for a bit. Eventually, he reached an amazingly familiar kitchen despite never having been in one like it. After a bit of checking, and some pleased hooting and hollering upon finding it stocked, he served up a nice dish of fried catfish, with a side of rice pilaf and collard greens. After eating his fill and informing the others about the remaining food, he went to bed, feeling quite satisfied.

Mus'ad almost rolls his eyes, but manages to avoid it in the end. Instead, he casually flaps his hand in half annoyance as he speaks.
"So dour! Not everything is war and death and killing you know. What about taking a fall in a title bout to quietly retire with a large sum of money? Or even just losing a hand of cards to make your opponent cocky in the next round? Ooh, or letting your brother think he won an argument and then letting your mother happen upon those salacious books he'd hidden. That was a personal favorite of mine."

Mus'ad, overhearing Kruger talking to Reeve about the bet, walks over himself.
"I wouldn't say that Kruger. Sometimes it's most wise to just accept a loss and use it as a trap... But I suppose it's easy to say that when I can plan most things."

501
Henry nods to Skye as she leaves, before turning to Stonebeard.
"Uh... I don't suppose you have any ideas how you could get out of that armor?"
Henry begins looking over the armored man, sending his stand over in preparation for getting him out of the suit.

502
Henry thinks on this a bit more before nodding once to himself.
"Then this sounds like a purp- Uh... Are there rooms here for people to sleep in? It'd probably be best to let your group rest."
Henry panics for a moment as he realizes he likely would have put Rose under more stress if he had finished that statement, and instead turned to Skye to ask his question.

503
Henry rubs his chin. Well, if they were getting up now, that meant that he probably wouldn't have to drag people to rooms to recover. Still, this did sound vaguely familiar too him...
"Yeah, sounds like a concussion to me... but it could be something else. I could try using my CMR to check if that doesn't fix it."

504
Henry nods at the plane girl thing's statement. Then it's likely that what Skye guessed was correct, and it was only those with psychic powers....
"Then a demonstration is in order so that you're prepared in combat. Captain Morgan's Revenge, to that tile!"
Henry points at a heavily cracked tile, prompting the piratical mass to zoom towards it in a blur, flowing over it quickly. Of course to those unable to see the being, it looks like nothing happens... until suddenly a similar crack appears on the tile next to it, enlarging until it matches the initial tile perfectly. Unbeknownst to almost everyone, it was an absolutely perfect recreation of the crack in fact, down to the very molecules that had been worn away by time. Then, as if it were a video playing in reverse, the crack in the initial tile is filled in until it's left in a perfectly repaired state. While the process goes on, Henry narrates.
"CMR is a stand, a manifestation on ones fighting spirit, or in other words, a psychic power unique to the user. When the one I designate as CMR's user is wounded or damaged, it will seek out an the attacker, and reconstruct the wound to a cellular level, before taking the materials from doing so, and using it to rebuild it's user in and instant!"
He poses with a fist up and a hearty smile as CMR flies back to him, taking up a similar pose, back to back with it's user.

505
Henry side eyes Skye for a few seconds.
Shit, then did she hear my thoughs just a second ago? I'll have to be careful about what I think around her; it'd be bad if something was taken out of context at a bad time....
Back in the world of the living, Henry distracts himself from the dread of being told directly that his accomplishments mean nothing and everyone he knew and loved are gone forever. Specifically, by changing the subject.
"Oh yeah, that reminds me. You all can see CMR right? Just realized that I should probably check if I need to explain further."

506
Henry nods. On the outside he maintained a neutral expression, a single bead of sweat the only sign to reveal the truth. On the inside however, a scared grimace had overtaken his features.
Internal injuries like that... with enough time and people Captain Morgan's Revenge could possibly reconstruct the bulk of the bones and take much of the work off of these Pokemon.... But... I could never let someone else live with the experience of what that's like! I swore I'd never use CMR for that again! I.... I can't let them know....
Back on the outside of his head, Henry speaks.
"Yeah, Captain Morgan's Revenge is it's name. It heals external wounds by recreating them exactly on the one that made them, and I can command it to treat others as it's user. That's how I found out about Zelda's current condition."

507
Henry gently sets down the now visible woman before turning slowly towards Skye. As he does, the name Zelda triggers a surge of recognition in his mind.... The daughter of that one comedian, good guy! But still he points with firm purpose at the Gothitelle.
"My name's Henry. Now, if you'd be so kind... What's holding Zelda together? It has to be a stand power since it harmed CMR, but if we're going to be working together I want to know the basics about my allies."
His face is serious, but fairly neutral. It's clear he just wants answers about what happened.

508
Henry curses. His dad was epileptic so he had experience with dealing with this, and it also meant he knew that you shouldn't actually move someone who was in the middle of a seizure. Unfortunately, he didn't have the time to let her ride it out. Thinking quickly, he orders CMR to cover the woman so he could get an idea of where all her parts are, before picking her up and beginning to walk back to where he had initially set out from.

509
Henry nods. Mystery solved then.... He crouches next to the shape and speaks softly.
"Hey, can you hear me? I'm Henry, I'm here to get you to safety."

510
Henry eyes the newfound evidence for a few moments before turning to his stand, metaphorically speaking.
"CMR, there's signs she was here but no body, take a closer look for me."
While his stand examines the clues he already found, Henry uses Dig Through Trash to find anything else that may lead to their quarry.
