Paper & pairing
Greens read as more expressive than blue or black, a common choice for people who want color without leaving the realm of "still looks professional." This ink will behave predictably on most fountain-pen-friendly paper. Cheap, highly absorbent paper (standard copier paper) will dull any ink's saturation and can cause feathering or bleed-through with wetter nibs.
About Joyful-2
JOYFUL-2 is a Japanese art, craft and hobby specialty store chain operated by home center company Joyful Honda, headquartered in Tsuchiura, Ibaraki Prefecture. Its stores in the northern Kanto region sell art supplies and stationery, including original fountain pen inks with colors inspired by regional landscapes such as Mount Akagi, Kusatsu and Ikaho in Gunma.
Storing and using the bottle
Bottled fountain pen ink has an effectively long shelf life when kept capped and out of direct sunlight: most inks remain usable for years. The main risk isn't the ink spoiling, it's a pen sitting inked and unused for weeks: that's what causes clogs, not the ink's age.
