Longer writing:
I used a Lamy Safari Pastel Pink with a broad nib on a Taroko Enigma notebook. The ink had an average flow.
Overall, this ink is pretty well behaved and is a lovely spring pink color, but it can be rather pale in the smaller nib sizes, so I would stick to broad or flex nibs with this ink.
