I love it! Its sheen is more subtle than some of the others in that line, but in the right light it&#39;s fantastic, &amp; it flows SO well.<br/><br/>(Honestly, you can&#39;t put together a whole collection of ink based on mythic creatures and NOT expect fantasy writers to leap at them! ;) <br/><br/><a href="https://cultpens.com/products/octopus-sheen-fountain-pen-ink-30ml">https://cultpens.com/products/octopus-sheen-fountain-pen-ink-30ml</a> )<br/><br/>#FountainPens #ink<br/> <img src="https://stockroom.wandering.shop/media_attachments/files/113/556/484/637/138/652/original/b07ca345874cf334.jpeg"> <br/> 2024-11-27T19:08:01Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsw8rkjfq526wwy96humqy5nchux8pecqqc6pw44yqsk92lpg0x6aqzyq8mg7s79xupeypfzr42est7tk45cm30edh38690wm5jge0ngyclwjhylmx In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqst4eruruq4u53vaq6yeph53g95v6du36d8q258hgtlz58542dq6es97a5c8'>nevent1q…a5c8</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>And <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub1xg3nxdl6nu898694xupn0dqehkwcnmnumeu9k6v5jl639dez4rtstw8svq" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>Patrick Samphire</span> (<span class="italic">npub1xg3…8svq</span>)</a></span> took this photo of a butterfly hanging out on the phone that I was holding!

We are a paleontology-loving family! I am going to be wiped out for the next several days, but what an amazing weekend.
