Paper & pairing
Blues and navies are the most broadly "safe" fountain pen colors: legible, professional, and unlikely to raise eyebrows in an office. 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 Scribe's Ink
Scribe's Ink is a small-batch American ink made by John Marks, who has been reported on the Fountain Pen Network as adjusting his recipes in response to reviewer feedback. Bottles have been described by users as carrying "Washington" on the label, and the inks include everyday colours plus wine-themed shades such as Napa Red and Cabernet Sauvignon. The brand has little formal retail distribution and circulated largely as samples and through fountain pen community channels.
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.
