Wearingeul The Ugly Duckling Fountain Pen Ink

The Ugly Duckling is a 30ml bottled fountain pen ink from Wearingeul — a plain light gray that quietly turns, releasing soft pink and green as it dries.

It goes down looking like nothing much, which is the joke and the whole story. Give it a minute and the pink and green come up through the gray, and the ink you thought was ordinary turns out to have been something else the entire time. Andersen would have approved. All three of its effects are gentle, so this is a soft, slow reveal rather than a dramatic one.
