Let's take a look at how the ink behaves on fountain pen friendly papers: Rhodia, Tomoe River, and Leuchtturm.
Dry Time: 40 seconds
Water Resistance: Low-Medium
Feathering: None

Other properties: Majestic Black had medium copper sheen. Jewel in the Crown had medium shading and gold shimmer. Mystic Storm had medium shading.
On Walmart Pen + Gear copy paper there was some feathering in every nib size and some bleeding.
Comparison Swabs:
Majestic Black is similar to Colorverse Sunspot.
Jewel in the Crown is a little cooler-toned than Ferris Wheel Press Brilliant Beanstalk.
Mystic Storm is one shade cooler than Robert Oster Summer Storm.
Longer Writing:
All of the inks had average flows. I used a Taroko Enigma notebook.
Overall, these are interesting inks! Mystic Storm is probably my favorite out of the three, but all three are interesting and well behaved.
