Oh thank god they can get fountain pens (silly, novelty fountain pens? I hope?) and pencils (invented WEIRDLY LATE) and I don’t have to figure out how Cam’s gonna take notes with a quill. (Entire cape pocket full of inkwells? Who knows.) And presumably notebooks, with exactly the least good binding.

Omg cartoon dragons!

This is all very helpful! Please let me know if metal nib fountain pens are not novelty enough 😬. Or if they all have weird defects or something, which would be both funny and fine!

*Did you know ballpoints were originally invented to write on leather and weren’t very common until after WWII?? Now I do! And also that a grumbly proto-boomer Redditor had to carry messy fountain pen refill kits around in his school bag lol.
