Understood.

A nice flex nib would be a good option. The best ones are probably the vintage Watermans but demand for good examples is high and the prices on auction sites and at pen shows are eye watering.

There's the Pilot/Namiki Falcon which is a very nice, modern pen with a flexible nib but you don't quite get the same line variation as a dip pen or vintage flex pen. Japanese premium pens are not cheap on the European market either.
