	Which, like, I mean, you don't have to have it, but I'm just, I guess I'm just confused.

But you've built this whole kind of network of retail shops that support your brand.

	And it feels kind of like you're going around them to launch a new product. I don't know. Like, and there's nothing wrong with that. I'm just confused. Like, this seems like, why don't we just launch this through our giant retailer network? And, you know, February 12th is the launch day for the Alchemist Inks, and all of your favorite ~~stationary~~ retailers have the products go.

	I also just, like, I have, like, a fundamental issue with the set that they are offering. Like, it doesn't make sense to me to sell this product as a six ink set. Like, when only two of them can be used in regular fountain pens. Like, really, why can any of them be used of regular fountain pens?
