((While I get the feeling we're good for points it doesn't seem reasonable for Xia to not participate, time for points on points!))
"What we need.....is a system!"
The Crab nearest Xia shy away and immediately find others to talk to.
"An organised system, where we carefully and methodically chart our needs and the expected demands of the march, building in redundancies."
A nearby scribe shoots her vigorous side-eye before hurrying off to consult someone actually important
"We'll start with the basics, food consumption across hard ground, now, who wants to begin the mathematics?!?!"
The Anjing looks around excitedly for a few moments before she realises she's in an empty circle surrounded by warriors pretending not to hear her
"Well....fine then, I'll do it myself."
Xia thrusts her hand into a writing glove and begins to scribble sums furiously

Half an hour later and now covered in ink
"Okay....okay, so the maths is done now. I won't ask you to do it if you come near me."
A few Crab do grudgingly step closer
"Ha! Gotcha! That was a clever ruse, the maths is never done!"
She grabs an unfortunate scribe nearby and starts dictating orders while he sighs and proceeds to write furiously

"Anjing-san, please, I've been writing for an hour now."
"And you need to keep writing until we're done."
"....But I'm out of ink"
"Like the hells you are!"
Xia disappears under a box and returns a few moments later with a deep pot of ink
"But...my writing implements are broken"
She hands him a spare
"And I'm out of vellum"
He's handed vellum
"My hands are cold!"
The poor scribe gets gloves
"Where are you getting all of these from?!?!"
Xia looks at him, deadly serious.
"It was for the good of the mission, now back to writing!"
