Why Hurt/Comfort Snarry Fanfiction Works So Well

Severus Snape/Harry Potter — One of the oldest pillars of Harry Potter fandom pairs the boy who lived with the professor who loathed and protected him in equal measure. Nearly all of it ages Harry up or diverges from canon entirely, mining the bitter history between them for reluctant understanding.

Hurt/Comfort — One character is hurt (physically or emotionally) and another provides comfort and care.

Two people shaped by the same war and the same dead woman finally seeing each other clearly — the antagonism makes the eventual trust devastating. The vulnerability, the tenderness, seeing characters take care of each other in their worst moments. That's why hurt/comfort Snarry fanfiction is one of the most consistently popular combinations on AO3.
