Description

This is the short story of one David, a Mewtwo, returning from abroad to the academy for Pokémon he heads and finding his three favourite things: green tea, stroopwafels, and Socratic discourse with friends.
This is part of a larger set of stories based on Plato’s dialogues, in this case Charmides, whose structure I have more or less copied whilst changing the topic of discussion.

At the persistent pecking of kenket, I’m uploading this earlier than I planned as a sort of test and impetus to actually publish things I’ve written. Since June 2013, I’ve spent about 2100 hours writing 1.4 million words of chiefly fanfiction, as practice before attempting my first real novel—here’s hoping it helped at all. In the next weeks I should begin posting chapters of a novel-length story with original characters in the Pokémon universe, including two in this story. My thanks to anyone who reads, and I appreciate feedback of any sort!
