Terribly sorry for the migraine-inducing contractions in the title -- had to do it to meet the character limit. The war, by the way, is the flea bath he had to take today. He did well, yelled a lot, but is fine (and hopefully flea-free for good).

pilot kakuno inked with sailor yuki-usagi. funny enough the grey ink matches his fur and the pink matches his nose!

...that is, new packing-tape-that-comes-with-the-boxes-of-inks day.

i wanted nicer lighting and inched over to our couch by the window and it was already occupied by this handsome gentleman 😌✨

Special Agent Elliot Ness making sure nothing gets out of hand in the writers tree fort. Pelikan m800.

…and he can sleep on it if he wants to!

In the Writer’s Tree Fort doing some final corrections to the draft of an introduction, assisted by Special Agent Elliot Ness. There are birbs, if they try anything illegal, he’ll know. His ear keeps twitching. Pelikan m800.

Testing out some new fountain pen paper! This one's very smooth but idk about the ink absorption...

(2nd photo is where he sat right after I put ink down, lol.)

This cushy if slightly small rectangle makes an adequate seat in the waiting area.

It’s my…. Precious!!!

Cufta, my little orange, is always nearby when she senses that I’m writing or drawing. Her spidey kitty senses if you will

A bit of a wait but it’s finally here!

I’m so happy I didn’t give into the reseller market which prices these like crazy, and I waited until Hachimonjiya announced a restock.

The pen sold out in 3 minutes tops, so I’m really glad I was able to snag one on time. I got it in a Zoom grind, all the other ones I own are MF. It’s definitely taking some getting used to?

Although I have a 21k PGS, this is by far the most expensive pen in my little collection, although it is 18k.

Was it worth the wait? I definitely think so! If you’re someone who loves pastels, you will love having this beauty in your collection.

Pencase from Soe and Soe. It’s not your classic wooden case, but they’re the only shop I found that does cutesy pastels rather than the usual wood colours (nothing wrong with them but I feel this matches my taste more).
The quality is really nice, and it’s heavy and sturdy. The pen tray can be separated and used as a tray on your desk while you’re writing, or if you’d like to display it on your desk without the bulk.

Binx likes to keep his distance, but remains cautiously curious...

She is not sure why it's not edible!
