yeah so fucking on second thought esker is the only person with any braincells in this family

when I started writing this thing it was "hornfels is the only person with any braincells in this family" (out of the founders) but as I've continued to write it's become "gossan is the only person with any braincells in this family and if someone is in danger they STOP USING THEM"

#outer wilds #the more I write the more I realize gossan while yes is the most sensible jackass they are still a jackass #so esker has to be honorary adult #I mean they ARE an adult. and so are the rest of the founders #but like esker is the only non jackass in the group and is also a fair amount older than the others #so they do indeed get to be designated adult #unfortunately they love the chaos and won't move to stop things very often bc 1. Ventures Can't Be Stopped and #2. no one's in danger of dying. usually #probably why they ended up running moon base as well so they could also be designated adult ~in space~#...I bet chert and esker get along really well #it's also my headcanon that esker was sorta in line to either take over as firewatch after tektite or as mayor if it wasn't gonna be rutile #before they threw their lot in with ventures #now they're kinda the outer wilds ventures version of firewatch anyways
