If Midsommar was allowed access to more than just thoughts, to near entire memories and emotions, she'd probably spend the rest of her lift lost - wandering between the already experienced lives of strangers. She'd lack her own world, her own discoveries, instead so infatuated by stranger's stories that she has no desire live a few of her own. If she were to know of Gale's power, and to think any of these things, she might be grateful she didn't know vision manipulation. She might wonder if she'd ever experience the flush of a handsome stranger calling her pretty.
The monsters in Pangea are not entirely monsters to Sommar, but still she is slightly surprised Gale doesn't ask her questions about her upbringing (and that's at the very least, most of the time she imagines others balking in disgust or slitting their eyes in suspicion). She isn't displeased; in fact, she is a bit delighted he doesn't act as if it's impossible she was born there. Sommar wonders what he must actually think of Pangea, and dips just a tiny bit into Gale's mind to see he now questions the rumors because of her. A pleasant smile follows that discovery.
When magic is offered, Sommar dips her head eagerly and gasps, "I would love that!" Her indigo eyes sparkle with excitement as they meet Gale's, almost forgetting the other question she asked. "Maybe Erne can really teach Malachai to fish, then," she giggles, allowing her gaze to trail back to her companion. Unlikely, he answers faintly, before trotting far enough away to effectively cut her out of his thoughts.
"I've never had lavender grass. Maybe you can show me that, too?"
