[ It's a reasonable day for a walk -- or in Raine's case, taking care of some errands during her 'day off' from teaching. Normally she'd take the path through the forest near her house to the square, but today she's coming down the other path--the slightly longer route as more stores can be visited that way. She's not really running these errands for herself, after all.
She hasn't really seen Lightning much recently--hardly at all since their talk, and it's certainly not something that's ever far from her mind. But there has been little she's been able to do on that front.
In any case, the little dog catches her attention, and it's not difficult to figure out who it belongs to after a quick look.]

... ah. Good afternoon.
