Leonard stared at the scanner like it was broken for a minute and then he sighed. Great, someone else that wasn't human and not in the system. Fantastic. But he'd been through this before and at least she was reading as some life form, not as a damn sun. At least that was working on his favor. The colony of microbes showed, but the biobed would give him a better reading on that.
He set the medical scanner aside. "Lie down for me. The biobed needs to get your complete readings so we can log them in the database. It'll help us out in case you're injured in combat. Let's us know what can save your life. But I'll need to ask you some questions about the physiology of your body - location of organs, inner workings, that sort of thing. Your race isn't logged into the system." He paused, giving her a mildly concerned glance. "I'll also have to take a blood sample."
See, he's calm about it. You missed the freak out from earlier. "What do they call your race of people?"
