The good counterpart to the Treacherous Advisor and The Starscream.
A Sidekick who always sticks around The Hero, All-Loving Hero, The Captain, or any other lead role, doubting his orders, making sarcastic, often insulting comments about his actions (if the lead's ego is not strong enough, this may have complications) but never, ever actually betraying or leaving him in need. Deadpan Snarker, The Lancer, and sometimes The Smart Guy commonly fit this description, and a Psycho Supporter may have been this at the beginning. The nastier types of Hypercompetent Sidekick are often this as well. A reluctant Noble Demon may have this type of relationship with its Kid with the Leash. Can also overlap with Lovable Traitor or with Sour Supporter. If the snarker is the hero's second-in-command, he is The Creon.
According to the theory of Dramatica, two archetypal roles are "Sidekick" and "Skeptic". The Sidekick supports you no matter what and conveys positive feedback (you can do this, everything's gonna be okay). Conversely, the Skeptic (who may still support you) conveys mostly negative feedback (this'll never work, you've screwed it all up, we're all gonna die) and not so strictly balanced against a more positive role. Sometimes this pessimism can batter down and demoralize the hero; at other times, it keeps him grounded, helps him remember the stakes, and even strengthens his resolve for the long journey ahead.note Consider Puddleglum in The Silver Chair. The negative commentary may contain useful warnings against mistakes the hero would otherwise make; also, learning to put up with some booing from the home crowd can ensure that the Hero doesn't fold once the Big Bad starts his little mind games.
See also Servile Snarker, With Friends Like These..., and Teeth-Clenched Teamwork. If the Sarcastic Devotee tries to deny that he supports the hero, he may be a Stealth Mentor or Noble Demon. Prone to Hypocritical Heartwarming if he doesn't let others mock the object of his devotion.

Hawkeye embodies this trope so thoroughly, that he's almost a better example of The Starscream. For years, he served under the leadership of Captain America and disputed every judgment call the wing-head made, no matter how trivial, and never failed to punctuate his complaints by claiming that he would make a much better leader. Even after Hawkeye got to lead his own team of Avengers, these arguments still cropped up every time he had to step back into a supporting role.

Dragon Age takes place in a Crapsack World of Snark.
Alistair in Dragon Age: Origins is brimming with sarcastic remarks. Morrigan, Sten, Zevran, and Shale can also get pretty snarky given the situation. In fact, the only one who doesn't have strong shades of snark in this game is Dog the dog.
Varric in Dragon Age II acts as a snarky lancer to Hawke throughout the game. Hawke him/herself can be played like this to authority figures like Aveline or the Viscount.
Varric reprises this role in Dragon Age: Inquisition, alongside Dorian. They're both very loyal to the Inquisition as a whole and to the Inquisitor in particular, but it doesn't stop them from making snarky comments and side bets.

Saruhiko Fushimi towards the Blue King, Reisi Munakata, in K. You don't see much of his loyal side in the anime until the end, but in the novels and manga, you can see why he's Munakata's favorite even though he acts like such a pain all the time.

Prince Paollo's guards in Archipelago and City of Somnus, especially Vamuro. They have a Psychic Link to him, they love him dearly, and they're very much aware of their role as both his bodyguards and anchors to reality. Since Paollo is an easily distracted, clumsy Dream Walker with (as of City of Somnus) a massive Power Incontinence that really worries him, the snark serves both as stress relief and friendly ribbing to get Paollo's mind off this.

Harry Potter:
Ron Weasley is among the most loyal characters in the entire series, but it takes very little for him to complain or snark about whatever they're doing.
Phineas Nigellus (or his portrait) serves this purpose too. He's on Dumbledore's side, but has to be cajoled into being helpful and frequently makes snide, sarcastic comments (sometimes with a valid point buried in them).

Shirin Bakhtiar, Princess Marina Ismail's advisor in Mobile Suit Gundam 00. Although we never really saw enough of that pair to see what her real deal was, some viewers got the impression that she was stringing Marina along for her own purposes. Plus, she leaves in episode 25 (leaving Marina looking rather upset) but not before the Celestial Being incident is resolved and Azadistan is apparently on its way to solar age.

Zenkichi from Medaka Box is always going on about how he's fed up with Medaka and her stupid plans, that this is the last time and he won't be helping her again, that he is tired of it all... but he always comes back to her and has vowed never to leave her side. His basic reason for living for the entirety of his life has been helping Medaka... Usually by keeping her in check because Medaka really has no clue how normal humans think or act and is constantly doing insane things.

Haskill in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion's Shivering Isles expansion. He is undoubtedly loyal to Sheogorath, but that won't stop him from leveling some snark at the Prince of Madness. If the player has progressed far enough in the Shivering Isles questline before beginning Sheogorath's Daedric quest, Haskill will appear and snark at the player for, essentially, praying to himself, though he will acknowledge that such a thing is thoroughly in character for the Daedric Prince of Madness.

Lampshaded in Final Fantasy XII. Basch asks Balthier why he's still tagging along with the Princess for seemingly no reason, especially since he likes to snark at her and undercut her authority on occasion. He doesn't really give a straightforward answer, but by the end of the game, he's perfectly willing to pull a Heroic Sacrifice to save Ashe's kingdom.

Archie Goodwin is actually hired by Nero Wolfe to do this. Wolfe is incredibly indolent and more inclined to cloister himself away in his house eating fine food and growing orchids, and so needs someone to goad and provoke him into accepting work despite his laziness. The fact that Goodwin clearly derives a lot of enjoyment from snarking at Wolfe only adds to the appeal.

Knights of the Old Republic: Atton, in the second game, starts as a subversion. He sticks around because Kreia's blackmailing him. He's pure snark, though.

Resident Evil Abridged: Wesker gets virtually no respect from his subordinates, with Chris being the main offender. Mainly because Wesker is a smug, condescending douchebag. So nearly all of their scenes together results in Snark-to-Snark Combat.

Lydia is one of the strongest followers in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, but sarcastically says "I am sworn to carry your burdens..." whenever you use her as a pack mule. She's given other lines of less snarky dialogue with the Dawnguard DLC, however.

In Persona 3, Shinjiro Aragaki is brusque and standoffish with the male protagonist, telling him not to try to tell him how to fight and snarking at him in combat when, for example, the protagonist heals him ("Tch. I don't need your help.") or gives him an order ("Who does he think he is?"). It's mostly a front (and he's noticeably less belligerent toward the female protagonist).

Yona of the Dawn: Hak is a textbook example of Tall, Dark, and Snarky, especially toward Yona, for whom he works as a bodyguard. However, he was willing to discard his entire life as he knew it for her sake and was completely willing to die for her. Ironically, this almost self-destructive brand of loyalty has led to Yona to convince herself he should be set free at some point, even though he doesn't want to be.

The title character, as well as the henchmen in general. Although nominally bound to his party due to his draconian labor union laws, Nodwick does actually care for them (mostly, anyway).

Liz Thompson is also this to her Meister, Death the Kid. Although she's quite vocal about the fact that his obsessive tendencies drive her up the wall, she genuinely admires him, not least because he saved her and her sister from homelessness and turned them away from a life of crime.

Iron Man was a more laid-back form of this as well in the team's classic incarnations (as he tended to usually shrug and fall in line if he wasn't listened to), with his style of devotee sarcasm being more "dude, stop yelling at me I agree with you", "no, your problem is dumb and you're just whining", and "wait, wait, you forgot about X" when Cap got a little too caught up in the problem at hand, had crises of faith, or was too idealistic.

Avatar: The Last Airbender: Sokka starts out as this, spending the first two seasons constantly questioning both Aang's and Katara's judgments, making sarcastic quips concerning their Chronic Hero Syndrome and their reliance on Bending and anything mystical. There are even a number of episodes that highlight how Sokka's highly-critical nature is essential to the team, as his skepticism can lead him to making alternate plans that save them when everyone else has proven to be too trusting or optimistic about a given situation. He mostly grows out of this by the final season, however, trusting in Aang's abilities far more by that point.

In the We Must Be Killers series District 2's community is a Family of Choice where each older generation of victor/mentor is seen as a cross between an absolute authority figure and a parental figure to be respected and obeyed.

Every sidekick in Girl Genius strays into this territory now and then for comic relief.
Moloch (a soldier and mechanic who's bitterly aware of the life expectancy of sidekicks in this world) and Violetta (a bodyguard who's convinced that her charge is suicidally stupid) are permanently unimpressed with what the main protagonists are doing.
Gil Wulfenbach can be like this at times (especially in regards to his father's employee relations methods compared to his own), and he's one of the madmen people sidekick at.
Zig-zagged for Agatha and Krosp; after sarcastically swearing fealty to him, Agatha is nominally the servant, but Krosp considers it a king's duty to care for and protect his subjects, of which Agatha is the only one, so in function he serves as her Snarky Non-Human Sidekick.

After Mat becomes a skilled general and emperor to the Seanchan, he becomes a Sarcastic Devotee of his Empress and wife.

Gwen was this to Ben in the original Ben 10 series: she constantly argues with him, insults him, criticizes his immaturity... but if he is in danger or in an actually messy situation, she will be there for him. Later installments in the franchise turn this down due to the kids maturing (the subsequent "classic" timeline shows) or simply having a much friendlier dynamic overall (the 2016 reboot series), though it still appears on occasion.

It would seem unflinching loyalty wrapped in deadpan snark is one of the Vulcans' many hats. T'Pol and Tuvok are both like this as well.
Bones McCoy, who as Captain Kirk's chief medical officer and close friend is basically the only one on the ship with the license — and the chutzpah — to question Kirk's judgment openly. Spock is more polite and guarded.

Etna from Disgaea is the only one of the late king's vassals willing to serve Laharl, and she's quite sarcastic to him since he's a Royal Brat. Even though she uses him as bait to stop Maderas, she genuinely feels guilty about doing so, since she promised the king, the only person to ever show her kindness, that she'd protect his son.
In the sequel, she leaves him after a fight, but she returns to him after Flonne gets them to make up and apologize.
Pink in Dark Hero Days constantly makes thinly veiled insults towards Axel, but he's completely oblivious to them. Fenrich in Disgaea 4 also makes insulting remarks towards his master Valvatorez, but he doesn't seem to care, either.

The Elder Scrolls:
Haskill in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion's Shivering Isles expansion. He is undoubtedly loyal to Sheogorath, but that won't stop him from leveling some snark at the Prince of Madness. If the player has progressed far enough in the Shivering Isles questline before beginning Sheogorath's Daedric quest, Haskill will appear and snark at the player for, essentially, praying to himself, though he will acknowledge that such a thing is thoroughly in character for the Daedric Prince of Madness.
Lydia is one of the strongest followers in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, but sarcastically says "I am sworn to carry your burdens..." whenever you use her as a pack mule. She's given other lines of less snarky dialogue with the Dawnguard DLC, however.

One Piece:
All the Straw Hats are this to Luffy at one point or another. They frequently insult their captain who has made some silly or strange decisions that they don't agree with but are all incredibly loyal to Luffy and wouldn't hesitate to fight or even die for him.
Shanks may also have this dynamic with his crew, what with them laughing at him when he gets bullied by a mountain bandit early in the series. Of course, this is softened by the fact that Shanks himself is laughing too.

Kiff of Futurama sticks behind Zapp Brannigan no matter what (probably because it's his place in the military), but makes it painfully obvious that he hates Brannigan for it. Oddly enough, Zapp is never fazed by Kiff's commentaries. It seems to go beyond his line of work, even when they were both fired from their ranks (almost entirely because of Zapp), Kif still acts like his usual submissive (but sarcastic) self towards Zapp despite no longer having any power around him.

A villainous example in The Witcher: Azar Javed's Dragon, The Professor, criticizes Azar in messages and openly berates him in combat, but is always there on command and follows orders, likening himself to a summoned genie. He stops short of being The Starscream in that he never considers betraying Azar, even when he's up against a wall with his life at stake.

Doctor Who: Quite a few of the Doctor's companions will occasionally point out the flaws in his plans, and in extreme cases, question his competence. This seems especially prevalent in the new series, as basically all the companions have done snarking on the Doctor's behalf.
Averted by Katarina in "The Daleks' Master Plan", and likely the reason why she was quickly bumped off. A Companion who views the Doctor as a god isn't any good for the series. Or the Doctor's ego, for that matter.
Jo Grant and Ace saw the Third and Seventh Doctors as Parental Substitutes and as such downplayed the sarcasm, but they weren't afraid to call him out when he did something stupid or to snark at him when necessary.
Sarah Jane, Captain Jack, and Jamie McCrimmon, (the latter of whom was arguably the longest-running companion ever) back in the Second Doctor's era, had two modes in respect to the Doctor: Undying Loyalty and Deadpan Snarker, and could switch between one and the other in an instant.
Tegan Jovanka, a companion of the Fifth Doctor, never hesitated to tell the Doctor off.
Two words: Donna Noble, with her habit of calling the Doctor "Spaceman".
One-shot companion Lady Christina snarks a fair bit about the Doctor's competence.
Amy Pond on the Doctor being a Time Lord: "That's just what they're called, it doesn't mean he knows what he's doing."
Her husband, Rory Williams, is a better example. Constantly snarks at him (and gets some back), but he is quite loyal to the Time Lord.

In the Child of the Storm universe, this applies to all of Harry's closest friends (especially Carol, who essentially becomes his Number Two and in chapter 46 of the sequel, his girlfriend). They're all utterly loyal to him, through thick and thin, no matter what... but have no problem snarking his ear off, especially when it comes to undercutting his ego or pointing out flaws in his plans. Unlike some examples of this trope, it's always appreciated, given that Harry is a Humble Hero.

This is Avon from Blake's 7 to a T — even after Blake disappears, to the point of being an Exaggerated Trope. On numerous occasions he goes beyond sarcasm and into power games, trying to undermine the crew's support for Blake. He also takes the ship away to protect himself more than once, when Blake is counting on him to teleport them to safety. He seems to be tied to this trope by a piece of elastic; the farther he stretches (taking the Liberator away) the harder he comes back (and ends up rescuing everybody). It depends how seriously you take his intentions — it is worth noting that when his actions did have bad consequences for the others (and Blake), he actually felt guilty about them.

Beast Wars:
Rattrap is very critical of Optimus Primal, questioning Primal's leadership skills and loyalty radar (particularly in relation to Dinobot and Blackarachnia) at various times. However, he would never in a million years betray Optimus or try to usurp command from him. His living quarters are fair game, though. His catchphrase is "We're all gonna die." Of course, since he was elected as Optimus' second should something happen, this makes his loyalty to Optimus as much self-preservation as anything.
Surprisingly, given Rattrap's suspicion of him, Dinobot was also very loyal to Optimus Primal, while frequently criticizing him for being too diplomatic in dealing with the Predicons. In one episode, it starts out with Dinobot and Optimus getting into a debate about Primal's interest in a new plant species Optimus discovered while on patrol. In the end, when Optimus is recovering from a disease that caused him to become The Berserker, he wakes up to find Dinobot keeping vigil. Dinobot denies being there the whole time and that it was merely his shift, though he admits to being grateful Optimus is back to normal before leaving. Of course, Optimus notices that someone went to the trouble of leaving a potted specimen of the plant from the beginning of the episode by his bedside.

The Avengers:
Hawkeye embodies this trope so thoroughly, that he's almost a better example of The Starscream. For years, he served under the leadership of Captain America and disputed every judgment call the wing-head made, no matter how trivial, and never failed to punctuate his complaints by claiming that he would make a much better leader. Even after Hawkeye got to lead his own team of Avengers, these arguments still cropped up every time he had to step back into a supporting role.
Iron Man was a more laid-back form of this as well in the team's classic incarnations (as he tended to usually shrug and fall in line if he wasn't listened to), with his style of devotee sarcasm being more "dude, stop yelling at me I agree with you", "no, your problem is dumb and you're just whining", and "wait, wait, you forgot about X" when Cap got a little too caught up in the problem at hand, had crises of faith, or was too idealistic.

Arthur is this way towards Dutch at the beginning of Red Dead Redemption II, especially if you're fond of the "Antagonize" option in the dialogue tree. He will gripe sarcastically but ultimately goes along with the plan. As the game progresses and Dutch goes off the deep end, he begins to be less and less sarcastic and as less willing to go along with whatever crazy scheme Dutch cooks up. He even goes so far as to start going behind his back to do major things like bust John out of prison.

Artemis Fowl:
A truly odd example: Opal Koboi can apparently mind-control the doctor in The Time Paradox, but while it does make him follow her orders, he snarks and complains the whole time.
A straighter example from the same series is Butler, who is absolutely devoted to Artemis, but never fails to point out the idiocy of his plans, especially in pre-Heel–Face Turn.

Beelzea, one of Mirajane's demon souls in the Alternate Tail Series, who often criticizes some of Mira's more hot-blooded ideas. Beelzea began as a demon that Mira killed and unintentionally absorbed in her village, only to mutate her arm in retribution. However, in the R-System, she granted her power to help Mira fight against the cultists who tortured both of them.
