While trolling around in the Altmal tag on tumblr, I came across a post that really hit home:

I want something where Malik's missing arm had been nothing but an illusion created by Al Mualim and, after Altair kills him and obtains the Apple, Malik regains his "lost" arm.

Cue fluffiness and "I'm so relieved you're okay"-sex.

I prefer top!Malik, but whatever floats your boat~
