An all-black LAMY Safari fountain pen filled with a mix of water, Platinum carbon black, and inkjet printer ink.
A blank sheet of A4, folded in half three times.
My passport.
A fully loaded Secrid card carrier.
A really nice rock. It has been in my pocket for a year. Don't think about it.
A dumb watch. (Casio W-59. Very small, light as a feather. Green LED-backlight LCD display. 50 metre water resist. Tough, within reason. Effectively infinite battery life.)
A beta of the PinePhone Pro, equipped with dreemurrs archlinux.
A USB drive containing all of my computers' boot partitions and Archiso.

You kinda have to be an enthusiast to make a fountain pen an edc. They require more work, are more prone to damage and has the potential to spill all that lovely ink all over your nice clothes. I just keep mine at my desk. They're a pleasure to write with given a quality make.

FWIW, I've never had a leak with a modern FP.
