not looking good at the moment

Grant is one tough cookie.  Also he's seen Xander on good days and bad for forty years, and this is definitely not one of Xander's bad days.  Not by Grant metrics, that is.  Bad days are a'coming.

never skimp on the important things in life, like food.  especially while the underling is trying to order more on the hoof. 

Hey, Grant says basically the same thing. And Xander's like 'do you know how many base pairs there are in a single strand of DNA??!!!'...

The sheep are fresh breeding stock for his already sizable herd.  They're mainly used for food, wool, leather.  Their need for upkeep provides his work groups with the tasks they do like tanning, cereal cropping, repairing fences etc. In exchange, that's what his commissary will feed anyone who wants it (and works for it): mutton sandwiches.  And no one wants to send him more not only because of the expense, but because he could just tweak their genetics any way he wants with the ones he's already got. Those dirty weasels.

mutton sandwiches.  mutton sandwiches for everyone.   Wool too. Leather.  Agriculture.  Construction.  He's using the sheep as the basis for his social safety net/work programs. 

haha!  he's trying to go shopping, that's what.  Usually Grant calls in the requisitions.  I guess somewhere, someone wants to check that Xander is still actually alive.  

Should be simple enough! 

Thank you!  I have so much fun with these guys!
