Colorverse Colorvent 2024 Day 8 is "Blue Moon", a light blue ink that runs wet and shades significantly. There is a tiny bit of purple sheen in deep pools.

It's very light , except where it shades, but legible. It won't replace Ama-iro, but it's nice enough I'll use it.

Pen is a Pilot Kakuno (clear) with an EF nib. It's still easily legible that thin, but since it's so light it may need to stay on papers that absorb more like Iroful.

Photo of a "Colorverse Colorspace Size C" swatch card, type 2 which is based on the Hubble space telescope.  The ink on the card is light blue with much darker shading areas where ink has pooled.  Upper left is text reading "#8 Blue Moon" written in an EF nib and then a stub nib.  Just to the left side of the middle at the top is a large illustration of the Hubble space telescope in negative space among swabbed ink.  In the middle right side is text "Hubble Space Telescope NASA" in negative space among scribbled and swabbed ink.  In the middle left is text reading "You are 336.2mi from Earth" in negative space among ink scribbles.  In the middle lower left is a blob of swirled ink drawn by a glass dip pen.  Near the center are "Mars" and "Uranus" with circles representing those planets, in more ink.  Lower right is text "Colorvent 2024".  Laying across the card is a Pilot Kakuno fountain pen, which is clear with blue ink visible through the cap and body.
