Watercolor or ink for quick sketches, which one wins out for you?

I spent my day off in Portland testing both on a park bench and the watercolor took way longer to dry but the ink bled through my cheap sketchbook. What do you reach for when you only have 15 minutes to capture something?

@jordanblack good question yeah I was just trying to do quick brush sketches not layering anything fancy but the water just sits there when you're on a park bench with no control over the wind. so ink is probably the better bet for speed if you don't mind the bleed through. but @jordanblack what kind of paper do you usually use for ink cause I feel like that matters almost as much as the tool

Wait, were you trying to layer wet washes or just draw with it?
