Actually
If I already succed ink to pen
And I found that I don't like it midway through using it
Is it safe if I squirt the rest back into the bottle :cirnothinking: 

Or do I need to be patient and let the rest of the ink get used too?

@koakuma@uwu.social Inks have antimicrobial compounds to prevent rot while sealed, and will last for a bit opened. When you put it in a pen, it's making contact with the plastic of the converter or the insides of the pen. I am personally not fond of squirting the contents back because I consider the bottle to be a "sterile environment" (I wipe the nibs clean before loading the pen to try and keep the environment as clean as possible), but it should be fine since the inside doesn't really get in contact with the oils in your hand so it doesn't have much more than the usual particles in the air.
