    Whoo-hoo! I haven't guessed correctly in quite some time!
    And I might have to get a sample of Yuki Akari. It's not one I've really taken a good look at, but it looks like something I would like

    I will try to get something up later today... hopefully I have something fun already inked

    It's not great ink out of a dry or fine nib, it's just too light. But, out of a fast wet nib it is really nice! Your Voyager would love it!

    I currently have BB Aofuji in it, which is similar. I've been too lazy to change the ink in that pen because the vac fill sucks to clean out. Especially in a demonstrator... there's ink in the plunger channel

    But carrying on... here's the next one.
    I was actually look for a different quote when this one jumped out at me.

    Pen/Nib: Pilot Vanishing Point - F
    Paper: Rhodia Dotpad - No 12
    Light: Natural Sunlight through a skylight (top), Somewhat clouded Sunlight though a skylight (bottom)

    I'll get the guessing started with Visconti Blue. I don't think the color is quite the same but it seems close.

    I will agree that the color is close, but this ink is coming out of a very wet nib, so it is darker than most of the swabs out there. The color that this nib produces is close to a third pass swab.

    Take a closer look at the lighter parts of the letters (specifically the "K" and "G" in King) and the smear.

    Nope, not Ama Iro. In fact, wrong country of origin! (Shocker, I know!)
    However, correct direction in terms of color family


    Wrong Guesses so far:
    Visconti Blue
    Iroshizuku Ama Iro

    I'm not sure which directly to travel but instead of crossing the Pacific I'll guess Lamy Pacific

    Correct direction! Wrong ink
    It is a touch too light.

    This ink is brighter than Tolstoy.
