Pelikan M620 Piccadilly with Noodlers Eel Black, and an Aurora Talentum with Aurora Black (truly an astounding combination on this one!). The Pelikan's running quite dryly, as usual for this particular pen.

Took out my Parker 75 Cisele' after ages.........was very neglected as it was F nib on top of being a dry writer............inked up with FPN Tulipe Noire and now I can't believe I didn't use it for such a long time. :happyberet:

A lovely turned pen by Neil Lavy in Cappuccino Pearl acrylic (with a wild black thread swirling through it), medium nib, started the day with Herbin Larmes de Cassis cartridge and finishing up with PR American Blue after it ran out in midsentence.

 

Edit: PS, the pen matches the tan figurations in the dark purple jacket I'm wearing. Match was not planned but seems to recur in different colors on different days with many pens and garments.

Yesterday I wasn't using any! :crybaby:

 

Today, a fi-dolla Stypen with an orange and turq finish, and Levenger Blue Bahamas ink (I do not think I'm that keen on Levenger inks), and a blue Peli Jr with whatever cart came along with it, which is almost empty. I don't like Peli inks either.

My latest ebook.   And not just for Halloween!
 

My other pen is a Montblanc.

I am using a 1942 Azure Blue Pearl Parker Vacumatic that I picked up last week at the Dallas Pen Show, loaded with Noodlers Van Gogh Starry Night (thanks Pakmanpony for both!).

 

And a Stipula Vedo (bought at the same show) loaded with a blend of PR Daphne Blue, Waterman South Seas Blue, and a touch of Starry Night).

Today - My 1911 Classic Demonstrator which I just filled using the converter. I went to the pen shop looking for a daily writer that could write more smoothly than the 1911's on office notebook type paper. I tried several pens, (with Fine Nibs as the Mediums were too thick for my tastes). including the Waterman Charleston, Visconti Van Gogh, an Aurora Ipsilon, and a Cross that I don't recall.

The Ipsilon was the closet to what I was looking for. In the end, I just kept the Sailor, and may keep looking.
