So! FFVIII fans:

So Laguna's Squall's daddy.

We all know this. You figure it out through the game. My question is, please help me highlight how it is figured out by Squall and Co, with this particular angle: who (else) knows that they are related? Refresh my memory, guys. Variety of topics:

1. In-game hints: flashbacks in Laguna's head (with the corresponding fact that Squall --> Laguna every time); Moombas call Squall "Laguna"; Shumi reference to Laguna; Winhill, Raine, Ellone; Laguna's awkward conversation attempts; ???
2. Raine's grave of course says Raine Loire, so once you know Squall came from Raine, does that count as the giveaway...? ;)
3. Cid and Edea. One might assume they would know, as Squall and Ellone came to them, and then Laguna brought Ellone back to them after she was kidnapped. Can it be argued either way?
4. Ellone. Knows what's up. (When?) did she tell Laguna?
5. Party members. As it's random who gets sent into the past (based on the player's choice of party), who is likely to have figured it out? All of them? None of them?
6. Kiros and Ward.
7. The world. Who else would know? Anyone?
   
8. FANON seems to make it very obvious that Squall, Laguna, and all other main characters are aware of their familial relationship.
