It always amuses me whenever I think about the fact that I got one of my favourite #FountainPens for free with a bottle of ink. It's even more amusing that I've never inked that pen up with that ink.

Okay, now please tell us what the pen and the ink are. You made me curious! Bonus points for pictures ;)

@Kate McDonald Ask and ye shall receive.

The ink is Noodler's Blue Ghost ink. The pen is (I believe) a Noodler's Charlie (currently inked with Diamine Inkvent 2024 Good Tidings).

Nice! I got a sample of Noodler's Blue Ghost a while back but haven't tried it yet. How do you like it?
in reply to Kate McDonald

@Kate McDonald It's a bit of a pain to work with because I only use it with a dip pen* and have to juggle that with a UV flashlight. That aside, it works really well. Completely invisible under normal lighting conditions and shows up really well under UV.

* Because I feel that cleaning it out of a regular pen would be a pain.

@jlamothe Ah it looks so fun! You've made me excited again about trying my sample. I got mine with the intention of using it for letters to my nephews . . . one of these years I will gift them a UV flashlight and then I can send them letters to read with it 😀
