My personal headcanon for Ash Ketchum has always been that regardless of if his dream ever came true he'd never truly stop traveling and learning. Because despite "becoming a pokemon master" being his goal if you actually sit down and watch like Any episode of Pokemon the thing that always holds true is his curiosity and desire to learn everything he possibly can related to pokemon. And he'll try anything to! He did contests and the battle frontier. He'd do those silly little shows with Serena if they'd let him.

So I like to imagine him continuing on in life as this nomad who people don't automatically recognize as anyone important ya know? Just this goofy guy going from place to place always lending a helping hand and hes got a cute lil pikachu on him. And hes often lost somewhere with a friend just exploring the woods to see if he'll find anything cool. Ya know, as hes always been, but older now. And its only once hes drifted once more do you maybe stumble into an article on the pokeweb about him and are like... that guy??

The title of Tamsyn Muir's short story The Magician's Apprentice may be a nod to Vladimir Nabokov's novella The Enchanter. Nabokov called The Enchanter his "pre-Lolita" and in a way The Magician's Apprentice is Muir's pre-TLT. What I find interesting is that unlike in Lolita, in The Enchanter the predator is killed off before he can commit the crime. It makes me wonder if the open ending in The Magician's Apprentice doesn't suggest a similar thing happening: Cherry consuming John before he can consume her.

Regardless if Cherry killed John or not the ending still would not be a happy one. Had Cherry survived, her hunger would've grown. Magicians need to eat freshly killed beings to sustain themselves. Eventually Cherry would have needed to find herself a young impressionable student just like John found her. John turning Cherry into a monster like himself might be a fate worse than death.
