I fell for Horo's acting hook line and sinker, just like that idiot Lawrence. I didn't think that those feathers were Deanna's either, I also figured that Amarty had simply gotten them for her, but not from Deanna. At least I was correct on what Lawrence believed Horo's "Sorry" was about, even if it was just as incorrect.

Horo and Deanna's plan failed to yeild the results that Horo wanted because Lawrence was too freaked out about the thought of losing her, and Horo didn't believe that Lawrence would get so freaked out that he wouldn't talk to her.

But it wasn't just Lawrence in a panicked state, since Horo did go to Deanna to ask her to lie to Lawrence so that he would still travel with her to Yoitsu. If Horo felt she needed that to convince Lawrence, so she must have been deeply worried herself.

I suppose we all should have had more faith in Horo.


I bet Amarty either said something snide about Lawrence, or indirectly insulted Horo's fur by saying how great the thing he had bought her was.
