I think you need to pick your pony and stick with it.Might be worth having Vulcan take a look at it, if nothing else turns up. He's got more car experience than Hephaestus.
...
"I suggest an offering to Hephaestus."
...
"Hephaestus?"
"Olympian god of the forge. Nice chap. Do you have a contact in the police?"
...
"Tell them what's happening, and then… Can we ask Hephaestus to look at it? Since we know it's not technology or regular magic."
...
"I got him the job, am more powerful than him and I bailed him out when our first attack on the Reach went wrong. I undermine his authority, and neither of us want Corps members being confused about who's in charge. You contact the police, I contact Vulcan?"
As opposed to thinking one would be better than the other guy, the then recommending the guy you decided not to go with.
Ok, I've got to say, this whole subplot you invented here, is rather stupid.She frowns at me. "They didn't do that already?"
"Hinon Hee Hannanan did a quick check-up, but given what's happened to me I thought that it was a good idea to get something more in depth."
"When I got to Oa, that was the first thing that happened."
This is because one of the things someone (cough it was you cough) used to harp on about is how a power ring is the greatest tool in the universe.
Remember how he showed up and fixed his body at the start of the story? And his ring was able to to that because power rings do in fact have really good scanning abilities magic notwithstanding, and the ring had basically scanned the entire planet, and the humans theron, to build up the database necessary to find out what healthy was and meant.
And also, how there are in fact very few Malthusian Guardians left, and so if there is something that is going to happen a lot, like scans of every new member to build a baseline, it would be really simple to just have the ring to that thing automatically with the high tech scanning apparatus rings do in fact have for information gathering and investigations and shit.
Like this thing was brought up when OL was destroyed, along with his rings and the data he had on them, like previous medical records.
Where the problem was never not having the medical records, it was not having done a data backup to the OLC central servers.
Which was rather stupid, but also not a problem the GLC would have. Because the GLC does have central servers, and rings that keep in contact with it. And reports that get filed with it. The upside of a Bobbleheaded Malware culture.
So there would be no need for her to remark about a separate examination that 'happened first thing when she got to Oa' because she is wearing a Clarketech scanning device on her finger. That could have scanned her in depth as soon as she was chosen to establish a baseline, and continue to monitor her for developing issues.
And most races that are around, have been around. And hardly any have anti scanning protections. Any race that has encountered a GL before, scanned and on the database, and downloaded onto the rings of those GL who operate near them.
Medical checkups are not something that would be need to be scheduled any more than appointments to upload a new recruits language into the system would be. This could all be handled in the background only brought up if an issue arose.
So what's going on here Mr Zoat?
