Some cozy, brown, caregiver Altaïr Ibn'La-Ahad moodboards, just for fun. Maybe I'll have to make some icons of him...
Flags are Bandaid Caregiver (left) and Lone Wolf CG (right). Thank you, bunnelbaby, for being such a wonderful archive for me to find flags on! Your work is appreciated <3
Bonus headcanons below the cut, for those who may be interested.

★ You're a handful? A lot to deal with? Well, no problem here! Altaïr doesn't mind a challenge, and is excellent at keeping track of many things at once. He's got you. Just give him some time to learn what you need, and he'll have your back the whole way through ♡
★ Being a caregiver, being someone that is turned to in times of distress, fear, or upset, being somebody's first choice of a safe person that can be relied on... it makes him feel valuable, and important, beyond what he can offer as an assassin. He feels like an actual person, like he matters.
★ Master of a little treat. Sure, why not have honey and fruit for a snack? Absolutely, you can have a baked sweet when you get home. He's very proud of you for dealing with that person being mean, how about a handful of berries? If you go to bed on time tonight, you can have honeycomb in the morning with your breakfast!
★ Tends to be rather quiet — he just doesn't have a lot to say. But he's an excellent listener, and very patient, and will happily sit by you while you play, or read, or do anything, even if he isn't involved directly.
★ Gives very, very good hugs. Extremely good hugs. He's not good at verbal comfort, and he's not good at understanding how to help people with their feelings, but his hugs are warm and steady, and he's a perfect rock to hold onto when things are rough and you need a shoulder to cry on.
★ Lots of forehead and temple kisses. :)
★ Will hold your hand anywhere you want him to — but only if it isn't the one he wears his hidden blade on! No tinies near his weapons! He refuses to spill the blood of someone so valuable to him, who has never done him wrong.
★ Super protective. No deity or weapon will save anyone who dares hurt you — he'll track them down himself, and make sure they can never hurt you again.
...you can tell him not to, though. You're one of very, very few people who he'll actually listen to. If you ask him not to do something, or to leave someone alone, he will. (Unless he thinks leaving them alone will put you in danger somehow. Then he's going to do what he was planning on, anyway. Sorry!)
