Usefulness Recovery was...boring.
Natron hadn’t exactly expected it to be exciting, lying around and waiting to feel better after two years (two. years.) in the Rift, but it was even more boring than he’d expected. He wanted to go home, and continue recovering there, but instead he was stuck in Negaspace for “observation.”
Ugh.
At least Amazonite was there. She was an absolute chatterbox, happy to talk away and fill him in on at least some of what she missed. There was only so much she knew herself, of course, because she only had a year’s worth of memories, but it was more than he had. She could tell him about the changes to the Negaverse, about the three new General-Kings, about Laurelite being some all-powerful Queen.
It seemed so utterly absurd, hearing about it all at once. Maybe he’d have understood if he’d been there, but he hadn’t, and so instead he was left trying to catch up, emotionally speaking.
He also had a lot of time on his hands to familiarize himself with things like the new tablet communicators and all the new information in the database. That was nice, and he’d thanked Amazonite for bringing it to him. Probably its single flaw, in his estimation, was that it lacked edit capability for the Negaverse database - it would be so much easier to be able to make entries on the fly, when memories were fresher.
He couldn’t fix that issue for everyone - he wasn’t quite familiar enough with how these new communicators worked, nor did he exactly have the authority to push a coding update for the entire Negaverse - but he could, at least, fix it for himself.
So he also got Amazonite to bring him some crystal, an extra communicator pen, and a few other things. She never asked questions, which was nice - probably because she didn’t care all that much, but hey, take what you can get.
And while he rested in a Negaverse medical ward, he crafted. The rift crystal bent to his will surprisingly easily - or perhaps not so surprisingly. It seemed to want to be used, if inanimate crystal could want anything. It shaped easily and smoothly, and integrated beautifully with his cavenged bits and bob of parts, and worked as an incredible half-magical, half-physical conductor.
It felt so simple, so natural, to carve it. The look was inspired by his favorite classic sci-fi - everyone always had a HUD, often connected to a visor, and that was the basis he used. It felt natural, like exactly what he wanted. The next step was the software, and he had to call Amazonite in for that - he could do a lot of the physical engineering, but she was invaluable for the nitty-gritty coding work. It was so easy, so much simpler than he’d ever imagined it could be, and the whole thing seemed to click together.
Once it was done, he settled the visor over his eyes and switched it on.

A holographic HUD popped up in front of him, elegant and purple and exactly what he’d wanted. He grinned and dismissed the visor, letting it vanish into subspace.
This, he knew, would be useful - hopefully a good way to prove his usefulness to the new General-King after his long, involuntary absence.
It was, in so many ways, good to be back.
