Just curious, have you ever fallen in love again? Fallen in love again with a fountain pen you purchased? For some personally sound reason, you decided to remove ink, clean the pen thoroughly, sufficiently or not and retire it or sell it to someone more deserving or foolish enough to want it more than you? On the other hand, you decided to move on to another maker, brand, or leave the game of fountain pen loving? I ask this because it is what happens to me over the years. I started with Montblanc, next moved to Pelikans. Lamys, A Bexley once. Now, my collection has become yet another metamorphosis of a perfect collection for my taste. For now, perhaps temporarily satisfied. Also ask this question because I was about to retire my Omas Ogiva Alba in orange. My extra fine point writing instrument failed to agree with Iroshizuku inks and I was using them nearly exclusively. Even though I am unable to see as blatantly the visual magic of Diamine's newest line Shimmertastic, it is my new favorite ink line nearly immediately; just tried red lustre. It works beautifully with my Omas Ogiva! I have already purchased a bottle of it and samples of several other colors. All for my Aurora borealis beauty! In love once again! So, I want to know from you have you ever fallen in love...again?
