It could be said that Maptano himself was a bit of a cripple. True enough, he had walked with a small limp ever since the fight with Machafuko, it had done quite some damage to his left shoulder. He wasn't comparable to Elea, however, for which he was glad, and the black lion could still enter a run and chase down... slow food. Really, he preferred intercepting.
Even though he wasn't going to hunt today, it amused him to see Ema lying around rather than doing anything more productive. Mapatano looked up to the sky, seeing a shape he assumed was the pale lioness' bonded. Or maybe his own, as Hisa herself was flying about up there, somewhere.
Mapatano approached form behind, though it wasn't really his intention to sneak up on her. "And what are you doing today, Ema?" He didn't bother to open with a greeting this time, and sounded a bit more light-hearted and teasing than he usually would.

Laying on her side, it took a moment for her to shift her head to see her visitor. It was also hard to not know who it was. His voice, his scent. "Mapatano," she said with a bit of a sigh. "I'm on vacation," she said dramatically, flopping her head onto the ground. She let her tail twitch a bit before she look back up at him.
"Don't you want a vacation sometimes? I've been working too hard."
Juu noticed that Ema had a visitor, and it was black. That black lion? Most likely. Ema liked to linger around those that she knew as well, something she had in common with him. Strangers weren't bad, but it was hard to really get to know everyone now.
Swirling overhead, she slowly made his way down to them, curious.

"I do like to work," she said a bit grumpily, "but I don't want to overwork myself. I feel myself slipping a bit, and....I don't want to get an injury like Elea's."
Awkward silence followed, since no one wanted that. Ema was probably being a bit selfish on that aspect, but she just wanted to make sure that she could care for Elea and her adult kids, when they needed the help.
"Anyway, what are you doing? Council-y things?" she asked with a smirk.
Juu landed with a bit of a thud, distracted now that Hisa was joining them as well. He should have expected it, but he was never very good at expecting things. "A fun one indeed," Juu said with a chuckling noise, remembering the time when they had to help Mapatano after he had hurt himself. At least this meeting was very enjoyable.

"Point there. But I think we'd handle a flood." He honestly hoped they were done with the natural disasters. He felt the pride was growing stronger, they didn't need anything coming in and making them weak again. "Of course, I'd be happy to give you a lift. Might be bumpy though." He raised his left paw. Even Hisa didn't like riding on his back too much anymore.
Mapatano did her the decency of mulling over the suggestion for a vacation. Before answering, "No." He shook his head. "What would I do on vacation, anyways?" Sounded boring to him! He glanced over at where the two birds had landed and tilted his head, briefly wondering what they were talking about, before looking back to Ema. "Too much down time and Hisa and I would be at each other's throats."
Hisa nodded. She supposed he had a point! It was nice seeing 'Tano not just snarking at people for once. Juu's question caught her a bit by surprise. Somehow, she hadn't thought about that. "I do!" She blinked, then glanced back to the two lions, then back to Juu.
"Oooohhh, I see. You think... Yeaaah." That might work! And it would be good. Hisa sometimes wondered if she would ever be jealous of whomever Mapatano settled down with, when she wasn't doubting it would ever happen, and usually concluded that no. She was happy if he was!
