I usually write on my origami paper, and because of the limitations of gel pens on colored paper I find myself often using white for ink. However no one fucking sells white ink pens. My favorite for a long time was Uni-Ball Signo brand — not the UM-153 type because the ink would turn into this weird dust, as Franklin can attest from the origami I gave him — but the UM-120. Now I can't find this shit in stores anymore; Amazon sells it for exorbitant prices, and Kino only has the 153. So I moved onto the Pentel Sunburst, which conveniently came in bulk, but now they're not selling white anymore. Gelly Roll does have a white version, but they're fucking atrocious. One will be fine, but the next one will come out literally as a liquid. This is a fucking gel pen. That is the opposite of what I wanted.

Seriously, what the fuck do artists do? Where do they get their pens? Don't tell me I need to start mixing ink now.
