Is the ink waterproof? Will it run on the paper if it comes ino contact with water after it has drir

I use it in a lab-style notebook (thicker paper) that has gotten water on it a few times. The ink stayed readable, but did bleed a little.

For me, yes. And I'm a cheapskate. As my profession has become more and more computer centric, pens and pencils, and the act of drawing and writing is a treat, a diversion. Like so many other reviewers, I am fascinated by the variety of colors and compositions of inks. This ink is not magic, but it is beautiful and it deserves its popularity. It is a neutral blue, completely free of any hint of red or other hue. On Rhodia Dot Pad paper through a Blue Pumpkin nib this ink is very sensitive to pressure, but looks beautiful if you can lay it down evenly. The bottle is sensational and the deep blue reminds me of the bottle of blue ink that my father kept at his desk. Ink, even this one, is the cheapest part of the equation, but it is the substance that breathes the soul into your pen. Think cheap pens, "expensive" ink.BTW, the price for kon-peki on Amazon is really good, probably not much above wholesale, given what it costs from other vendors.

Does this brand of ink require blotting?

Not really, it's just a very wet ink as inks go. If on a very glossy paper with a wet nib, it might lend itself to blotting, I've never had to resort to it.
