Hurt/Comfort (Gon)

hi! do you have any hurt/comfort fics where gon is the one being comforted?

All righty, this took a hot minute because Killua is infamous for being the comforted party in hxh hurt/comfort fics XD but I tracked down a handful that focus on Gon’s inner struggles!

Please mind the tags, since hurt/comfort fics tend to have darker/more triggering themes. <3

worse sights than this by Quintessence ( T | 2,049 | 1/1 )

Be strong, saith my heart; I am a soldier; / I have seen worse sights than this.

“It had to be fair, you know? I knew that from the moment I saw Kite’s body, torn apart and sewn back together over and over again. I had to do some sort of penance for that. I had to make up for what I’d done. I had to. I needed pain. A lot of it. Maybe enough…”

Gon takes a deep breath.

“Maybe enough that I wouldn’t make it out in one piece.”

In which things long unspoken finally come to light.

whatever a moon has always meant by Quintessence ( T | 2,871 | 1/1 )

“That’s what I’m trying to tell you,” Killua says, firm but gentle.  “You’re not slowing down.  If you let yourself rest properly, you’ll actually be more efficient.  I think you should take the rest of the day off, get as much sleep as you want tonight, and pick things back up tomorrow.”

All at once, tears gather in Gon’s eyes, and he begins to tremble, so violently that Killua can see it from across the kitchen.

“What right do I have to that?” Gon all but shouts, his voice breaking.  “People are being hurt and I’m one of the few people who can actually do something about it, so what right do I have to relax?  The people who are in trouble aren’t getting to relax!  Not even for a moment!  Why should I get that luxury?”

In which Gon tries to carry the weight of the world on his shoulders, and stumbles under the load.

Gon, if possible, becomes more reckless.

the one that you want by poeticlump ( T | 3,110 | 1/1 )

“I-I just . . .”

“You just what, Gon.” His soft white hair was disheveled, sneakers coated in fresh city grime, and he looked like he wanted to scream—in a way that only Gon could recognize. His stance was composed, cold, calculated; with Killua it was all in his eyes.

But for one of the record first times in his life, Gon had no words. For the first time, he didn’t want to be honest. He didn’t want to be straightforward. He was sick of telling everyone in the world exactly what he felt and wanted. Some things, some things were sacred. Some things Killua wouldn’t understand.

He wouldn’t understand that Gon wanted him to himself.

Gon keeps smiling, assuring Killua that he's alright despite the evidence contrary. Killua has to find a way to help him before it's too late.

If Gon got the Hanahaki Disease...

less than half myself by lxonardo ( T | 6,020 | 1/1 )

"You know you don’t have to figure this out alone, right? We can do it together, so pl—”

“But I really don’t know. I don’t want to burden you—” Gon trembled, grabbing the slide door to keep himself steady. He shut his eyes tightly, suddenly his eyes growing heavy with tears building up. “I don’t know why I’m feeling like this all of a sudden.”

Within a split second, Killua rushed to his side, gentle arms embracing him in a hug. Gon was shaking, and he circled his arms back around his waist, resting his temple on his shoulder. His gut was telling him to get away and you’ll be hurt again, and it was growing louder. But Gon chose to ignore it, because he was safe and Killua wouldn’t do anything to hurt him. Killua was, if anything, a safe haven to him; it made no sense that he would subconsciously fear him, especially when he’s been with him for so long.
