I posted a picture of Autumn Forest on my blog but just realised that the pink glitter is much more visible on this one!

> Dominant Industry, Autumn Forest. It’s a green ink with pink shimmer.

These are some notes I took while playing Where Winds Meet. I’m so used to names of plants being fictional in Genshin, that I’m always surprised when I look up plants in WWM and find out that they really exist!

I’ve been using two black pigmented inks for a while now: Sailor Kiwaguro and Platinum Carbon Black, and my conclusion is that I prefer the Platinum one on the Midori notebook paper.
I’ll probably buy a bottle once I finish this sample. It’s going to be my go-to black ink.

I’m using the Lamy Obsidian ink. I love this black ink a lot because it’s so dark, but it smudges badly. I’m using blotting paper, but this ink just never dries. I just need to touch it (even something I wrote several days earlier), and it will smudge. :meow_pensive2:
I will have to look for another black ink. I had Pilot Take-sumi, but it’s one of the rare bottles I actually finished.

I bought two inks from a Japanese seller on the Seoul Pen Show a couple weeks ago, and I’ve finally tried them.

They’re both from a brand called Delta, the first one is “Creation of Myth” from the series “Osaka Landscape” and it’s more orange than I thought (I was hoping for a orangey brown, but it’s mostly just orange).

The second one is “Home Sweet Home” from the series “Colored Noise”. I love this pink brown so much! It doesn’t show on the picture, but it has a subtle purple shimmer too.
