Is there a way to make long delay ink?
You might experiment with fresh-ground apples, which contain polyphenol oxidase and catechol oxidase, enzymes that turn brown in air (a tiny amount of copper or ferrous salt is also present, acting as a catalyst).

For that matter, dilute ferrous salts are often almost colorless (pale green) but darken to brown on exposure to air. (Digging in a podzol, soil of a pine forest, shows that color change.) So, you could extract a bit of liquid from greenish podzool and load your pen or marker with that.
