Henry Writes

== Synopsis ==
Henry has been in a funk since everything that's happened with River caught up with him. He's been keeping to himself in his room, not doing much else except sleeping. Ben knocks on his door and Henry lets him in. Ben tells him about an N64 Super Smash Bros tournament at the local community college and asks if he'd like to go as the prize is a limited edition N64. Henry agrees. Although they lose the tournament, being out and competing allows Henry to realize how out of it he's been recently. After getting some ice cream, they head back to the Fort. Henry sits at his desk and writes a letter to River. He tells her that he understands now why she did what she did and he forgives her.

==Summary ==
Henry is depressed. Everything that happened with River is catching up with him. He's mostly been in his room, not doing much except sleeping. He hears a knock on his door and Ben walks in. Ben tells him he found something that Henry might be interested in, handing him a flyer. Henry looks at the flyer and sees that it is a N64 Super Smash Bros tournament at the local community college. Ben says they have to be in teams to compete and he doesn't know anyone else as good at Smash as Henry. Henry says that he already knows he's the best at Smash, he doesn't have to go anywhere to prove that. Ben points at the bottom of the flyer where it says they're giving away a very limited edition run of the N64 as a prize. Ben says he knows Henry lost his N64 when the Fort flooded and he thought he might want to win one back. 
Henry begrudgingly agrees and they both leave the Fort and head to the community college on West. They make their way to an auditorium that is set up for the tournament. Their first match doesn't go well, Henry seeming to still be in a funk. Ben tells him it could have gone better and Henry angrily replies he knows he's better than that. They get into their second match and Henry does even worse. Ben is still able to score them some points to keep them in the competition however. With this loss, Henry suddenly realizes how out of it he's been recently and admits Ben was right about him needing to get out. 
Ben and Henry go into their final match and get absolutely stomped. After commiserating over their loss, they decide to get some ice cream as a pick-me-up. The two have a good time talking about their tournament, laughing about how badly they performed. They head back to the Fort and Ben asks Henry if he wants to keep playing Smash in his room. Henry says there's something he needs to do first but he'll come over later. 
Henry walks back into his mess of a room and walks over to his desk and starts to write, thinking about everything that's happened recently. He writes a letter to River, saying how he doesn't understand people. Or at least he didn't until he met River. He talks about how he thought the events with the zombie would push her away, but they didn't. He also admits that the day they found River, found out she was the traitor, that he was angry. But now he understands why she did it, that she wanted her family back just like he did. He thanks River, saying that she's a hero - they were able to stop the Empty Man because of her, save Gideon's life because of her, see Stanley happy because of her, and that she saved all of them. He finishes his letter by saying that he forgives River and that he'll spend the time she's given him repaying her for what she's done. 
Henry leaves the letter on his desk and then walks out to join in the Fort's regular activities for the first time in a long time.
