This is my point. I want more H/C that doesn't do this, but this is what a lot of it is, regardless of what the trauma itself actually is.

Like, there's more to comfort than ooo-ing over boo-boos and stuff, and I want to see that explored rather than reading a story that's entirely based around the soppy, gushy parts. I don't want it soppy, I want characters reacting to fucked up things in their own in character ways, and their friends supporting them - but also in character!

Unfortunately, it's very, very hard to find, hence why I said I'd like it to exist.

da

It's...really not very hard to find. Good h/c exists is very large quantities. Gushy, soppy h/c is the bottom of the barrel stuff that's usually easily ignored. Maybe you're just in the wrong fandoms?

Both sorts exist in massive quantities, and while easy to discern from summary, it gets depressing to be trudging through page after page after page of h/c gooshing to try and find something that isn't. Its drowning out everything else just through sheer volume ratios. Especially on AO3 where the out of control tag problem has resulted in H/C, usually of the skeeviest sort, turning up in every search no matter how unrelated you try to make the search terms.
