He eats wild radishes in bed. Crunch, crunch, crunch, all night.
I just read Two Hearts, which is the sequel for The Last Unicorn ♥ Of course, it's not as magical, and the ending is just painful because of poor Lir. Woe.
But still, I'm shameless and I loved it because Schmendrick and Molly are so canon and cute! It's just... damn, it's like one of the best canons I've had for a couple of mine, like, ever. I didn't expect it to be so in-your-face. Yeah, TLU's ending had some burning subtext -they leave together! by own choice! singing!-, but it skyrocketed to hypertext in this story.
a) Dude, it's been decades and they're still together travelling?
b) The touching and the embracing continue.
c) Endearing bantering, just how I like it. Molly is practical while Schmendrick lives in his little corner of dorky, masochistic weirdnessthat's what happens when you live a long time without aging; ask Clow and Eriol!.
d) MOLLY'S SPEEECH. She's all like "but sometimes I want us both to be immortal and shit so we could be forever like this D:" That's a NEON SIGN of canonness.
e) They're so married the narrator girl ships them!
Molly: you can't argue when he's like that ¬¬U
Sooz: but good wives don't argue their husbands :P
Molly: LOL! we're not married, we're just, er, together (<- actual word, says it twice)
Sooz: oh, but you look married
Molly: pft, I'm never marrying that dork, he eats in bed! XD
Schmendrick: *at Sooz* ^_~
No, really. It's just awesome for characterization and post-ending interaction. I think I'm obsessing over this pairing in an unhealthy way, but it's no surprise.

And Molly/Schmendrick are so sweet together. They are both sort of "ordinary" but that is what I love about them.

I think it's funny how he gets to be more "ordinary" after he gains his magic. But then, maybe he had serious issues because of his ineptitude and curse to act behave sincerely. Now, Molly is truly an ordinary woman, but she does like extraordinary beings in her life as her touchstones (the unicorn, captain Cully, Schmendrick...)
