A story in which one of the characters is physically or emotionally hurt (injured, sick or tortured) and the other character (before or after rescuing them) has to comfort the first one. This form of story goes across many fandoms, and certain characters are favourites for making the victim of the author's sadistic whims. Blair from Sentinel, Daniel from Stargate SG-1 and Avon from B7 to name a few. Also called h/c for short.
Not that the brilliant and wonderful writing of the ultra-talented wiseacress can be reduced to a mere clichéd genre definition...
