It's not as if she hasn't been explicit about describing her level of affection for Lawrence throughout. From seeing her behavior in the evenings, you can make a pretty good guess that what she is expecting is more for him to progress it than regress it or let it stagnate. I'm surprised that she hasn't had the wherewithal to make the first move when it comes to actual sexual intimacy -- it makes me have doubts that either one of them is actually experienced in that area, despite the unlikelihood of that in general.
I'm quite confused with this episode: why, when Lawrence seems to be OK to escort her to Yoitsu, then why in the earth she said that he should accept this offer and gamble to get the inn ? I mean, Horo is immortal compared to Lawrence, and even if now she's ready to make a sacrifice, what if she get bored and leave Lawrence?
Horo trust Lawrence more than the contrary, so he should have doubts when she say "I'll take care of you when you breathe your last." I think she means it right now, but does Lawrence think so? ANd what if he doesn't make the first move?
