[ lorna is half-jewish herself, but after her parents had died her aunt had always tried overcompensating during the winter holidays. hanukkah was observed and celebrated, but there was always something done on christmas, too; a family dinner and a special present reserved for that day. there's no way of knowing if she's doing the same thing for dawn, or if it's even december there, but she hopes that tradition's continued for her, even if she's still too small to know what's happening.
she comes across peter after a while of trying to figure out how she wound up in this winter wonderland and how she can get out of it, and she's not close enough to hear what he's muttering to himself, but she can see that he looks pretty distressed, even from a distance. he may not be her 'child' anymore, but she still feels a surge of protective defensiveness and seeing him upset has her running up to him, trying to get him to look at her. ]
Peter? It's Lorna. [ kind of bold of her to assume he'll know who she is, but he clearly needs help even if he doesn't. ]
