[Raine's struggling to juggle the phone and an unhappy baby at the same time. She looks pretty worn and tired, and little Brooke is gnawing on her fingers with miserable whines. Mom's at wits' end and finally resorts to checking on the network for advice. This is new territory for her and she's at a loss what to do.]

I think she's teething, but nothing I've tried seems to be helping.

[After another soft whimper from the little one, Raine pulls her closer and rubs her back. Teething woes aren't really all that's eating at her. It's the looming prospect of her husband going off on another volunteering to help job. The last time he took on one of these away from home, he didn't make it back.]

How long will that trip with the chocobos take, do you think?

[Noticing Raine and Brooke on the Sky Phone makes Golbez pause. The dinner was perhaps a bit awkward, and he doesn't have much advice to give about babies, but it's no reason not to be polite.]

Raine.

It is likely to be several days, especially since they must leave the Shrine once they fight Garland.

[Raine draws a deep breath and nods, clearly still uncomfortable with the whole prospect.]

I hope it's no longer than that. Laguna's got a knack for stumbling into long projects.

There are others traveling to the Shrine. If you are worried for him, speak to them as well.

I will. Someone's going to have to keep him in line.

Were I going, I would offer my assistance.

[That draws a smile out of her.]

I appreciate it.

I think Squall's going to though he shouldn't have to babysit his own father.

[Raine shrugs a touch at that. Honestly, with Laguna, what can you do?]

If it is needed...

[And he'll just leave that statement there. He got that impression of Laguna.]

Unfortunately, someone has to.

[Raine just shakes her head. She loves her husband, but he's a trouble magnet.]

Indeed.

[He almost thinks the same of Cecil, sometimes.]

May they return safely.
