arrow00 | Meta: Faces of H/C

I've been on an h/c reading kick since my illness, and it got me to thinking of the many different types of h/c, and how my particular situation would *not* have made a good h/c plot (oh, alas.)

This led to the following categorizations. Please feel free to add your own, hopefully with Sentinel or dS examples:

Stubbed-toe h/c — When a character suffers an injury or illness that is completely common to everyday man and woman, yet the author has chosen to explore the character recovering from a head-cold, for example. (Warning: This type of story can and may involve some Unnecessary Bathing.)
Pulling a Homer — When the character is responsible for their own injury ("D'oh!"), e.g., cutting their finger while chopping vegetables because they were so distracted by the beauty/lithesomeness/extraordinary hair of their possible-future-same-sex-mate.
After School Special — in which the character suffers a major illness or calamity that is atypical and somewhat sensational, yet unrelated to a career of crime-solving or world-saving.
C is for Clara — When the character simply wastes away out of pining/yearning/perpetual hard-on.
I Swear It Was an Accident! — When the character is injured by his own partner, who then must not only provide h/c but loads of penance.
Holy Hand Grenades, Batman! — The character is kidnapped/wounded/tortured by Bad Guys. Sometimes all three. Repeatedly.
Dudley Do Right — Character throws himself in front of bullet/knife/speeding train to save his partner cum object-of-sexual-interest (or just the rest of the world.)
