Beleaguered Assistant	comment	For every bumbling investigator, overly idealistic hero, delusional superior or short-sighted "mastermind," there's an assistant, that one guy who has to do all (or most) of the work, deal with the consequences of his boss' antics, and generally play clean up. As a result of having to deal with his boss' foolishness, this character is continually exasperated, and would probably rather be anywhere else. On the bright side they singlehandedly keep their side relevant. Expect this kind of character to be a Servile Snarker and/or a master of the Face Palm. Related to the Sassy Secretary. Not the same as a Hypercompetent Sidekick, who, despite the fact that they work their butt off for little pay and no credit, is generally fine with the way things are. The Beleaguered Assistant is not, and would probably have called it quits a long time ago, but stays around either out of a sense of duty, having been assigned to his post by the military or another authority, or because they owe their boss, or someone else, a fairly big favor, or simply out of fear for the repercussions (being labeled a deserter or being jobless). If he's ever granted free time, expect him to be pulled from his day off. Some Beleaguered Assistants treat their boss with contempt and rudeness, yet the boss simply ignores them because they are either too stupid to notice or don't care. Alternately, they act as if they are delighted to help, and hate themselves for it. Note that the more incompetent or clueless the boss is, the more likely this type of character will show up, though less incompetent (and more hyperactive) characters can have these as well. Often the Only Sane Man, the Cloudcuckoolander's Minder, and The Reliable One. Only Sane Employee is when this character has far more to deal with than just his incompetent boss, while Beleaguered Boss is in charge of a bunch of idiots/lunatics/mavericks. A good character to use when determining whether other characters are Nice to the Waiter. See also Conservation of Competence. Contrast Professional Butt-Kisser. If they are male and their employer is female they may be half of Mistress and Servant Boy relationship.

Beleaguered Assistant / int_100d4e39	comment	Aladdin: The Series had the the incredibly incompetent "bandit king" Abis Mal paired with his constantly annoyed advisor Haroud, who constantly made sure plans went the way they were supposed to and who, unfortunately for the heroes, happened to be very smart. So smart in fact, that he is able to trick Abis Mal into doing the things he just ordered Haroud to do. In the Fisher King episode "Bad Mood Rising," the king is a moody brat and the Wazir is a Beleaguered Assistant. He doesn't seem to be any less beleaguered once the king cheers up, because the king has awful proposals for improving the kingdom, like "We'll make EVERYONE a Wazir!"

Naturally it falls to Smithers to make up for these defects and make sure Burns remains as successful as he is. Subverted when it's made clear that Smithers actually enjoys this, and has an almost psychological need to serve Burns.

Beleaguered Assistant / int_31ffb6ee	comment	Madison Raines in Heart of the Woods works as manager of her best friend Tara Bryck's "Taranormal" Vlog Series. Tara treats Madison relatively well, splitting the proceeds of the show while shouldering the costs herself, but at the same time, ends up getting Madison caught up in her misadventures, from ill-fated one-night stands to Tara getting arrested while investigating paranormal activity. This, combined with the sacrifices Madison has made for Taranormal, such as quitting her barista job and dropping out of film school, have caused her to lose her initial passion for the show, and just before the start of the game, Madison decides to quit after the trip to Eysenfeld(where the game is set) ends. Unfortunately, Tara takes that decision personally and the two's relationship is strained for much of the game. The two reconcile just before the climax, and in the Golden Ending, Madison quits to allow Morgan, Tara's new girlfriend, to replace her as her assistant.

Beleaguered Assistant / int_33c4d830	comment	In Sidekick Girl many of the Sidekicks are far more competent than their assigned superhero; this is because intelligence, skill or even useful powers aren't qualifications to be a hero. You know what is? Looking hot in spandex or having a kickass backstory. Sidekick Girl, in particular, has great skills in martial arts and is highly intelligent, but is saddled with Illumina, an idiot super who is best known in the business for getting all of her previous sidekicks killed or maimed. Played with in later strips. It turns out that only one of Illumina's sidekicks died, and that was not due to Illumina being incompetent. Illumina eventually develops into a much more competent and sympathetic character.

While Wolfe is no fool or incompetent, he is very eccentric, lazy and demanding, expects Archie to do all the grunt investigation busywork that he can't be bothered to do (often without fully appreciating just how difficult this might be for Archie), sends Archie running around the city at all hours of the day or night in search of clues, evidence, or whatever Wolfe wants at that given moment, keeps vital information back from Archie until it suits him, and drops him into situations that get tricky very quickly and require Archie to think on his feet to try and get out of them. Needless to say, Archie usually responds to all of this with generous helpings of sarcasm.

Her mentor Eirin is downright abusive at times, inflicting Reisen with "punishment time" that leaves her unconscious for several days at a time.

Even when she does things right, she gets punished, as seen in Forbidden Scrollery where she invents a safe, humane form of pest repellent but still gets "gently scolded" because she did it without consulting Eirin first. What makes this odd is Reisen only really qualifies for this trope in stories where she's the main character; when she's just a supporting character, she's an Unsympathetic Comedy Protagonist and the abuse she gets is karmic punishment for her arrogant attitude.

On one hand, he constantly expresses frustration with the haphazard way Xykon runs the show (or doesn't, as the case may be). On the other hand, he continues to work with him out of choice, seeing Xykon as a powerful ally for furthering his own agenda. O-chul is this to Lord Shojo. He has to put up with his (seemingly) crazy boss doing silly things like talking his cat into using the litter box, and Shojo apparently uses the threat of uncomfortable tasks to get him to be okay with infractions of the law that conflict with O-chul's Lawful Goodinvoked nature.

Beleaguered Assistant / int_a6543322	comment	Several Touhou Project Ninja Maid or Battle Butler characters are like this. Perhaps worst of all is Sakuya Izayoi, who has to constantly use her superpower to keep the mansion in its Bigger on the Inside status, plus use time stopping to clean it because their army of fairy maids are all completely useless, plus cater to her selfish boss Remilia's every whim, plus keep Enfant Terrible Flandre from using her One-Hit Kill superpower to destroy everything, plus defend the mansion from various intruders, plus assist her mistress' friend Patchouli (who seems to believe that Sakuya is their cat) as needed, plus it's heavily implied that she's the one that prepares the human-based food for her vampiric mistress and her sister. Technically, she's also in charge of protecting the mansion's library from the Kleptomaniac Hero Marisa but as Patchouli laments, her cat doesn't seem to do it's job chasing "rats"...and actually seems to just give Marisa tea and cookies while hiding her from Patchouli's wrath. Good thing she can stop time. When Youmu Konpaku isn't busy trying to keep her Big Eater boss Yuyuko Saigyouji fed, she has to put up with Yuyuko's relentless teasing (which mainly stems from Youmu being very straightforward and Yuyuko trying to encourage her to "think outside the box"). Reisen Udongein Inaba is an odd example. Her mentor Eirin is downright abusive at times, inflicting Reisen with "punishment time" that leaves her unconscious for several days at a time. Their mutual mistress Princess Kaguya tends to make completely unreasonable demands (in the vein of "get me a glass of water in three seconds"), and Tewi plays all manner of mean-spirited pranks on her. Even when she does things right, she gets punished, as seen in Forbidden Scrollery where she invents a safe, humane form of pest repellent but still gets "gently scolded" because she did it without consulting Eirin first. What makes this odd is Reisen only really qualifies for this trope in stories where she's the main character; when she's just a supporting character, she's an Unsympathetic Comedy Protagonist and the abuse she gets is karmic punishment for her arrogant attitude. There is also an inversion of this trope, somewhat: In Touhou Chireiden ~ Subterranean Animism, Satori is troubled by her underlings' hijinks. Well, when you have a nuclear-powered hell raven that's obsessed with destroying the world as a pet...

This lead to a number of fans thinking that Lindsay really did treat Nella like this, which in turn caused the pair to parody the idea with a skit that basically said the Chick was paying Nella to fill the role, because the Chick was Hollywood Homely and would look more attractive if next to someone even less desirable.

When Izumi properly meets him for the first time, he's practically begging Izumi to help him before Ryuko drags him off, and Shino telepathically communicates her desire to marry him when telling KantÅ� how she isn't married yet.

He has a very good relation to the former due to having been her servant for so long, but he spends more time in service with the latter, and let's just say, Kaos is a lot less nicer to him. He not only drags Glumshanks into the evil plots he comes up with, but also uses him for a punching bag, and as expected, Glumshanks is not fond of it, to the point where he takes anxiety medication. When they end up going seperate paths in the first half of the second season, Glumshanks takes the chance to pursue his interests and he is shown to be much happier doing it than being Kaos' servant.

This causes Jamil to briefly attempt to discredit Kalim's reputation at school and get him removed from his position. Outside of this, Kalim is such a Sheltered Aristocrat that Jamil has to constantly baby him regardless. Lilia was hit hard with a case of this in the time leading up to Malleus's birth. First he was violently coerced by his monarch Meleanor into taking her egg to safety instead of staying back to help her fight, and so this got her killed. Then, when the egg was safe, Lilia was berated by a council of ungrateful elders for getting Meleanor killed, even though he had no choice in the matter and saved her child's life. Little wonder he retired from his post in the army and went into hiding for a time. And even after that, when he successfully hatched Malleus, the elders berated him again for supposedly tainting the Draconia lineage with his bat lineage. The other characters witnessing this are fed up with how much crap Lilia had to put up with from his superiors in his past.

Though she tries to guide Chloe into becoming a better person, all her efforts are in vain, and she has more luck passive-aggressively lashing out and snarking at her holder. Chat Noir finds himself forced to handle the bulk of the work fighting akumas while Scarlet Lady hogs the credit for saving the day. The two of them are trapped in Teeth-Clenched Teamwork — like it or not, she's the only one who can use Miraculous Ladybug, and if he left it all to her, Paris would be doomed. So all he can do is snark and insult Scar's incompetence. Sabrina, meanwhile, is stuck trying to compensate for Chloe's mysterious disappearances and increasingly erratic behavior. Though not as openly snarky as Tikki or Chat, she has developed a bit of a First-Person Smartass side, making comments and observations to herself about the questionable nature of her 'friend's' choices.

Where the others are merely in charge of things such as inking and adding tone or effects, Hori is landed with the task of drawing all of Nozaki's backgrounds because Nozaki doesn't know how to draw them himself. And on top of that Nozaki doesn't even give adequate instructions on what needs to be drawn most of the time.

Beleaguered Assistant / int_f12f9b66	comment	Commander Peepers from Wander over Yonder tries (and often fails) to keep his boss Lord Hater on track and not let him be distracted by Wander's antics. Likewise, Sylvia sometimes serves this role to Wander when his curiosity and/or desire to help gets them in hot water.

Beleaguered Assistant / int_f1bed52	comment	Hello! Sandybell: Flash Scappan is this to Kitty Shearer. She often yells at him, makes him carry her heavy luggage and maltreats him to petty degrees. He often has a worried expression on his face when he's around her, and when Kitty is kidnapped by a criminal gang, he's kidnapped too. Even the chief editor of Ronwood News yells at him. If it wasn't for the fact that Kitty comes from immense wealth (and that Flash is desperate to get fame), he wouldn't be taking the job.

Beleaguered Assistant / int_f3e1f424	comment	The title character in Merlin embodies this trope. He runs around doing Arthur's chores, including extremely demeaning ones, while Arthur insults him and throws things at him. When Arthur wants to shirk his royal duties, it's Merlin's job to cover for him — which has more than once landed him in the stocks. And of course he spends most of the series repeatedly saving Arthur's life. Using his very illegal magic that he could be killed for having. Possibly on the orders of Arthur himself. And he gets no credit for any of this. It Makes Sense in Context why Merlin puts up with all this. Mostly.

Beleaguered Assistant / int_fa738078	comment	Artemis and Luna from Sailor Moon have elements of this. They are the ones that tell their protegees, Sailor Moon and Sailor Venus, how to do their work, are very snarky towards them and have to deal with their major obliviousness and clumsiness. Somewhat subverted since Moon and Venus are still good at their job and acknowledge their cats' efforts and accomplishments, Also, while Luna and Artemis (usually the former) can be very rude and tell them explicitly what they think of them, they are still are very fond of each other.

Beleaguered Assistant / int_fe117549	comment	Andy Sachs to Miranda Priestly in The Devil Wears Prada. Andy is a more unusual example in that Miranda is neither insane nor stupid, but is instead so much The Ace that she demands Andy be hyper-competent by default, rarely acknowledges her successes and eviscerates her whenever she can't keep up.
