Tamara chuckles and purrs, welcoming Julie into her arms. She nuzzles the female sailor tenderly, emitting a soft and deep rumbling purr as she holds her, taking in her scent. And what a scent it is! A mix of arousal and excitement, but also determination and strength, not only physical but also mental. This one knows what she wants, and she's determined to get it. And she wants to join the family of nagas and be with them, but mostly she wants to stay with Lily. It's almost like she wants to carry on being Lily's surrogate mother or big sister, depending on the point of view.<br/><br/>Tamara looks back into her eyes, her emerald gaze meeting with Julie's brown eyes. "You will join her," she whispers back. "You'll be together, inside me, in more ways than one, and outside me, should you chose to come back into this realm as one of us, as one of the naga," she continues, making it sound like a vow and a promise.<br/><br/>The tigress looks at the Captain and simply nods at him. Jaku already said what had to be said, and she just meet gaze with him for a short moment, her looks carrying the promise to do her utmost to keep Julie safe through her change and after that.<br/><br/>There's an almost coherent shout from the crew in reply to the Captain's order, in the form of 'Yes Sir!' and 'Aye Captain' and variations on the theme, following by the ringing of many hurried steps on the metallic deck plating as the crew runs to their posts to starts the manoeuvres. And also spread of the news of what just happened to the rest of the crew who manned their station during the whole discussion. You don't elt a ship, especially one that size, without someone at the helm or watching the engines.<br/><br/>Tamara's tailmaw sneaks up behind Julie and nuzzles/rubs against her back, gentle, although it startles her, causing Tamara to chuckle.<br/><br/>"You should undress hun, it's easier for me when the people I take in are naked. Clothes do not transform, and I cannot melt them in there," she explains with a slight grin on her black lips.
