====== HurtComfort ======

Hurt/comfort (h/c) is a popular fanfic [[Tropes|trope]] in which a character is first hurt, then comforted, frequently by their One True Love (though gen variants are also common). H/c may or may not contain Magical Healing Genitalia or Buttholes.

H/c became a popular topic on meme not only because it's very "iddy," but because, early on in meme's history, there was SJ opposition toward the trope because it was deemed "ableist." See [[hc-bingo-wank|hc_bingo wank]].

Here are just a few of our earlier discussions of h/c:
