I'm glad you found it interesting.

I like both emotional and physical hurt/comfort, but I guess I'm more interested in both characters' emotional state while this is going on, and I feel that written media is better at exploring that. Hurt/comfort in most visual media just ends up being violence and torture, as you say, and then some shots afterwards of one character applying disinfectant/bandages to the other and causing them to wince! It's not quite what I want, generally.
