Honestly this is probably more on Loyd. Yor doesn't know about kissey kiss, Loyd totally does and has at least 59 stratagems for it.

The last time Loid tried to kiss his wife he was nearly beheaded, I think it's understandable if it he is hesitant about kissing his wife.

He's also in a marriage of convenience with her and thinks there's no actual emotion there on her end; him kissing her when the relationship is, as far as he knows, just a lie to help them both and where he holds power over her social status would be kind of loving bad and has some pretty awful undertones depending on how you want to view it. Yor and Loid need to sit down and talk about their actual feelings and the reality of their relationship at some point, not just kiss the other out of the blue.

Loid is, in general, quite intelligent. He's effective in his spy work, he's effective as a psychiatrist, and he's able to evaluate threats and neutralize them in all kinds of environments.

He's just an utter moron around his wife, because he's in love and very unused to the emotions involved.

More like he's still laying the groundwork for an actual romance. Just like how Yor's murder spree on the cruise got her to think about how much family meant to her and what she isn't willing to lose just because of her job.

Counter-counterpoint: the story has already had multiple scenes of people thinking about or expressing their feelings and they can be some of the best stuff in the manga, like Loid waking up to a drunken Yor singing the nursery rhyme his mother used to sing to him, and them discussing whether Yor is a good fit for his family or not, since Yor had no confidence in her place as Anya's mother. Execution counts, and the mangaka does really good scenes where people actually talk about things.

everybody thinks that the endgame is gonna be a mr. and mrs. smith thing where they are tasked to assassinate the other but find they love each other enough to defy orders, but i am still holding out hope that loid's cover job as a talk-therapist psychologist is no accident and the denouement will be several hours of family therapy while glimpses of various explosions and martial arts battles and so on in the window outside reveal that there is a bunch of spy stuff happening simultaneously to which neither we nor the forgers are privy, and they emerge as a new, genuine, family to find that daybreak or whoever has resolved all of the other plotlines without their intervention.

Loid tried this in the chapter when they went to a bar together and she kicked him so hard he was almost beheaded.

That's just basic foreplay for a spy x assassin couple like Lyoud and Your.

Someone shows Loid a set of statistics showing that he and Yor have a below-average number of children for their age and official time married. Why, it's almost... suspicious!

'Bond excepted but he can't talk'

The chapter where he takes love advice from Franky suggests otherwise, though?

Well, that's no issue at all! With his years of experience wooing women for the cause, Loid will surely have no trouble romancing Yor, provided something like a massive emotional complication doesn't get in the way of his efforts.

Good thing there's nothing like that at play.

None whatsoever.

Honestly, what I'm really interested in is seeing how Anya adapts to being a big sister.

Yuri is competent at his Stasi job, right? Lloyd will have to put in some effort.

Prediction: there's a random Daybreak interference, as a one to two pages gag.
