Much like having different hammy actors in the same work, sometimes putting two snarky characters into the same works and having them interact in some form of discussion (especially an argument) can seem like a competition in sarcasm. This often makes it a little easier to tell which character is more of a snarker; it can also be a sign of Belligerent Sexual Tension, as it's a form of combat in which the antagonists suffer no actual physical damage, and many of the attacks can double as denials of the attacker's true feelings for the target (or be interpreted as such). See also Volleying Insults and World of Snark. Well, Excuse Me, Princess! is a specific version of this between a snarky hero and a snarky princess. Also may figure in Passive-Aggressive Kombat and Politeness Judo. Bantering Baddie Buddies often engage in conversations like this. Alternatively could be called "having a sass off". Not to be confused with cruise missile warfare. |

In Retro Game Master, if Arino can't make progress for a long time, the staff behind the camera may comment on this. The Chief always gives a lengthy passive-aggressive monologue about it in return, which also gets commented on by the narrator. If an assistant is present at the desk, they and Arino often ping-pong about each other's skill or personal life. | |

It's fair to say over half of the party banter in Dragon Age is comprised of this, a natural result of being a BioWare game. Nonetheless, some companions get along... not as well as the others, which tends to result in some much more snarky conversations, such as Alistair and Morrigan in the first game, Aveline and Isabela in the second, and Sera and Vivienne in the third. Show that you are willing to play with Alistair when he gets this way is one quick method to raising his approval. | |

Angel: The eponymous vampire's team communicate with each other almost exclusively in snark, especially Wesley and Cordelia. Nicely summarized by Wesley early in the second season: Kate Lockley starts one of these up to show just how unwilling she is to work with Wolfram & Hart. |

Michelle Henke and Michael Oversteegen of Honor Harrington are noted for their snark even in a universe where snark abounds. Then David Weber packed Henke off to the Talbott Quadrant as the admiral in command of Tenth Fleet, with Oversteegen commanding a battlecruiser squadron in said fleet. Any time those two are in the same room, the snark is sure to fly thick and fast. | |

Crest of the Stars: The Abh have elevated this type of interaction to an art form. Almost any conversation between high-ranking Abh is going to turn into a snark contest. In the novels, it's mentioned that there is technically a law in the Empire that forbids insulting the nobility or Imperial family, but it's never been enforced because if they ever did, they'd have to arrest pretty much the entirety of their nobility and Imperials. | |

MechWarrior 4: Vengeance has a Deadpan Snarker named Casey Nolan as one of your lancemates. The Player Character in the Black Knight expansion is a mercenary hired to bring down the regime that the original player character established in Vengeance, and is quite the Deadpan Snarker himself. Nolan, being crucial to victory in the Vengeance campaign, is retained by the Dresari regime as a training officer for new Mechwarriors, which makes him one of the main targets in the Black Knight campaign. The entire level in which Nolan is featured is riddled with these two going back and forth on the comm. | |

Almost every character in The Gods Are Bastards engages in this. It sometimes seems that Snark must be one of the classes taught at the University between friends, allies, unacquainted neutrals, mortal enemies, people who are simultaneously trying to out-gambit each other, and between a boy and his talking sword. | |

Supernatural: This happens frequently between Sam and Dean, but they can end up doing this with almost any character who's either a hunter, an antagonist, or just smart enough to understand what's going on. The masters of snark on the show, however, are Bobby Singer and Crowley. While they quip constantly at the expense of others, putting them in the same room for more than a few seconds will inevitably cause the two of them to start verbally fencing with intent to kill. |

Power Rangers has several examples of this Starting with the original series any time Rita and the Rangers engage in a fight, there's a chance that this'll be invoked. Same with Zedd and Ivan Ooze. Power Rangers in Space provides several examples of this, particularly whenever there's a meeting of the United Alliance of Evil and when the Psycho Rangers are around. It's not just the villains, their monsters, or who they have around them either; the heroes get into this as well. Ninja Storm's Cam is a good example of this; he's the team's Deadpan Snarker, so there's a lot of this going on. Billy Cranston from Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers through Power Rangers Zeo falls into this as well as he gains confidence as a Power Ranger, though some of it's against Bulk and Skull. |

Homestuck: Almost every conversation with Rose and Dave ever. In fact, most conversations between most of the cast lean this way, given how many of them trade in the snarky goodness. Conversations between Rose and Kanaya are also notable, with the snark being easily interpreted as something of a downplayed Belligerent Sexual Tension at times, especially in the beginning of their relationship. The first installment of the sequel, Homestuck: Beyond Canon, consisted of two snark-offs between Rosebot and Dirk, plus one between Dirk and Terezi. |

Bulldog Drummond: Both Drummond, the hero, and Peterson, the villain, are Gentleman Snarkers, so their conversation sometimes are this. At one point, after Drummond escapes a Killer Gorilla, Peterson informs him that he's the first person to go wandering around the grounds unattended at night and not be found dead the following morning. Drummond politely apologises for spoiling the gorilla's record, and Peterson equally politely replies that he's not to worry, as there's plenty of time left till morning and his death might still be arranged. | |

Also with Daniel Craig's Bond and Vesper Lynd in Casino Royale. Judi Dench's M got her barbs in as well, as a sign of her needing to be an Iron Lady in order to lead and maintain control of a male-dominated organization like MI6.

Tomb Raider: The majority of dialogue from the Core Design era consists of Lara and whatever unfortunate NPC she's about to kill bouncing snarky one-liners off each other for a few minutes before she gets back to shooting things. In Angel of Darkness Lara's Dialogue Tree generally consists of a mean, snarky comment and a meaner snarky comment, with the recipient giving as good as they get. | |

BlazBlue: Rachel Alucard and Ragna the Bloodedge are both surprisingly sane and incredibly snarky. Put the two of them together (it won't take much), get some popcorn, and enjoy the show. Behind all the snark, however, is a very strong, almost romantic, bond. A one-off example happens in Continuum Shift between Jin and Makoto. |

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is a World of Snark, so the quips fly whenever there's a hero team-up — such as the Avengers movies ("And what is your job, besides making balloon animals?" "Protecting your reality, douchebag.), Captain America: Civil War ("Jesus, Tony, how old is this guy?" "I don't know, I didn't carbon date him. He's on the young side."), Thor: Ragnarok ("You're a doctor, you have PhDs. You should figure it out." "None of them for flying alien spaceships!") and Captain Marvel ("Got to admit, that's not the craziest thing I've heard today." "Well, the day just started"). | |

In the Dungeons & Dragons novel The Savage Caves, what's not surprising is that the resident Lovable Rogue, Lidda, is incredibly snarky to the resident Good Shepherd, Jozan. What is surprising — and entertaining — is that his method of preaching at her to behave often consists of Gentleman Snarking right back at her. They spend almost all of their scenes together verbally going at it as a result. | |

Words of Radiance (second book of The Stormlight Archive): The second time Kaladin meets Shallan, they end up screaming insults at each other in a crowded hallway, spurred on by the fact that she stole his boots the first time they met. He actually manages to hold his own against her — something only a handful of other characters are able to do in the series. Later, when they get trapped in the chasms, they keep snarking, but it's significantly friendlier: | |

Literal Snark-to-Snark Combat breaks out toward the end of Errant Story when Deadpan Snarker Sarine engages in a duel to the death with Snark Knight (or possibly the other way around) Sarna, who also had been Sarine's best friend for centuries. Snarkage mixes with blood and gore right up to the moment someone dies. | |

The fanfic, "Snark Convention" centers on the lead homicide detectives from the three core CSI-verse series meeting each other while attending a convention and proceeding to complain about their respective Crime Lab bosses. Among the comments, Cap. Brass tells the others how weird Grissom is for collecting bugs and Det. Tripp goes on and on about Horatio's "Sunglasses of Justice." | |

Mass Effect: It's a BioWare game, so what do you expect? Some gems include: Mass Effect 2 cheerfully descends into this in "Lair of the Shadow Broker", when Shepard and Liara snark to each other about game mechanics. This gem featuring Joker and Garrus lampshading what relations between humans and turians look like in Mass Effect 3. Mass Effect: Andromeda: Pretty much everyone in Ryder's party at some point. They're like that. But Nakmor Drack and Cora Harper are probably the snarkiest towards one another (unless Drack has an "Old Man Moment"), in a Vitriolic Best Buds way. Or on the subject of Cora's asari martial arts moves: |

In Tyranny, this is extremely common. Not only do your Ragtag Band of Misfits commonly butt heads, but amongst the Archons Graven Ashe and The Voices of Nerat start out repeatedly sniping at each other with venomous contempt and only get worse from there. Nerat even seems to relish in it, as they will lampshade if you try to snark them into cooperating. | |

Ninja Storm's Cam is a good example of this; he's the team's Deadpan Snarker, so there's a lot of this going on.

In Tangled: The Series, Eugene Fitzherbert (a.k.a. Flynn Rider) and Rapunzel's handmaiden Cassandra don't like each other, but are forced to work together since they both care about the princess. Since they are both prominent snarkers, it results in them indulging in snide, verbal jousts every time they're in the same place. In any other series, this trope would be used to showcase the Vitriolic Best Buds vibes between them and show the wit of the writers. Here, it is deconstructed, showing the real consequences of verbal abuse: Cassandra is Rapunzel's First Friend and Eugene is Rapunzel's Love Interest. Both of them snark so much they constantly Kick the Dog one to another: Jerkass Cassandra barely tolerates Eugene — she becomes a constant Shipping Torpedo with him and Rapunzel in all the seasons, at Season 1 Cassandra's snarkiness makes her a Unwitting Instigator of Doom that inspires Eugene to walk into a Suicide Mission. At season 2, she barely tolerates Eugene and pulls a The One Thing I Don't Hate About You. As for Eugene, whenever he is verbally attacked, he pulls his A Darker Me persona of Flynn Ryder, who Kicks The Dog a lot with Cassandra. Eugene displays Hypocritical Heartwarming to Cassandra, but Cassandra is The Paranoiac and she never acknowledges it. The worst part is that when Eugene is not putting his A Darker Me persona, he becomes a Hidden Heart of Gold. This means that Eugene gives emotional support to everyone except Cassandra, the person who needs it the most. Cassandra makes a Face–Heel Turn at season 3, betraying Rapunzel and Eugene. That season shows Cassandra geographically far from Rapunzel and Eugene. Without Cassandra's constant snark-to-snark combat, Eugene feels confident enough to Be Yourself and experiments true Character Development and becomes The Heart. When Cassandra comes back, she tries her best to use snark-to-snark combat to hurt Rapunzel and prepares a Disproportionate Retribution trap for Eugene, but Eugene is now enough of The Heart to forbid Cassandra when she makes her Face–Heel Turn. | |

A Song of Ice and Fire has plenty of snarkers, all quite willing to exchange fire when two (or more) find themselves in the same room. Tyrion Lannister, however, takes the cake: he'll manage to raise return snark from even the most unlikely of sources simply by opening his mouth. Granted, he'll probably still beat them back down, but hey. (Unless they're Sansa — pity holds him back, there; or, his father — that's due to downright intimidation. Well, until he calls him out with a crossbow, at least.) | |

Bridgerton: The entire Bridgerton family engages in this. They never miss an opportunity to poke fun at one another. The first thing that marks Kate as a potential match for Anthony is their shared wit, resulting in conversations that are comprised nigh-entirely of snark and barbs. Exemplified in the pall-mall game, where Kate is right at home with the elder Bridgertons' teasing while Edwina (the well-mannered sister Anthony is supposed to be trying to woo) can't keep up. Edwina at one point has to ask Kate to play nice when she gets caught up in being competitive with Anthony. |

Jerri Blank and her half-brother Derrek have this relationship on Strangers with Candy. although neither character is very bright so the snark is low-quality. In one episode Jerri develops an eating disorder while cutting weight to try out for the debate team. As she loses more weight her retorts to a snarky fellow debater get snarkier. | |

In Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes, Counts Bergliez and Hevring engage in this, especially at the end of Chapter 3 in the Scarlet Blaze route. It end with Count Hevring calling Count Bergliez a "swollen-headed juggernaut," only for Count Bergliez to take the "juggernaut" as a compliment. | |

Game of Thrones takes right after its parent A Song of Ice and Fire. If anything, it even manages to increase the generalized snark levels. When Ned first encounters Jaime in the throne room, most of their conversation is snark and backhanded compliments. Tyrion still triumphs. A dwarf, he uses his wit and intellect to overcome the prejudice he faces. Almost any scene with the series' resident Magnificent Bastards Varys and Littlefinger together fits as this. Scenes featuring Varys and Tyrion generally show a lighter version — a Friendly Rivalry version of Snark-to-Snark Combat. A lot of barbs are exchanged between Renly and Littlefinger since neither man possesses any talent for fighting and this is the only form of combat that they excel at. Tyrion also often shares verbal spraying matches with Bronn and Daenerys, who are both willing to knock Tyrion down a peg and he's just as often willing to do the same. |

Spider-Man: Spider-Man and the Human Torch have been doing this sort of thing whenever they team up or are even in the same story together for decades. It's kind of their thing. Spider-Man and Deadpool, both notorious snarkers, actually engage in a yo mama fight once. They also provide the current trope image. Spider-Man and Black Cat tend to indulge in a more flirtatious version of this. |

To the point where it's genuinely shocking when, in one of their conversations during Jensen's infiltration of Picus headquarters, Pritchard asks Jensen to "spare [him] the sarcasm". |

Doctor Who: The First Doctor, Second Doctor and Third Doctor. Really, most of the multi-Doctor crossovers (the first five, Two and Six, and War, Ten and Eleven) seem to have a bit of this. The Doctor always has a sharp wit and always has a variety of foibles unique to each regeneration, so whenever two or more are gathered together, they're bound to snipe at each other a bit. "School Reunion" has the Doctor, Rose, Sarah Jane, Mickey, and K9, as well as chief antagonist Mr. Finch, all engaging in some manner of snark with at least one of the other named characters. The Eleventh Doctor and his companions. Despite being "totally against bantering", the Twelfth Doctor indulges in a lot of this. The Thirteenth Doctor, Yazmin Khan, and Dan Lewis are a snarky trio. The villains are known to get in on the snark-to-snark from time to time — sometimes with each other ("Doomsday" has the Cybermen and Daleks, of all creatures, engage in a spectacular snark-off before resorting to weapons). |

As Child of the Storm is a World of Snark, this happens all the time, with far more characters than it's possible to list. Harry and Carol manage to combine this, Casual Danger Dialogue, and Flirting Under Fire all at the same time, often to the bemusement of everyone around them. Just one example takes place after Harry makes a Dynamic Entry (wearing the tattered remnants of a power-limiting suit that he cut open with a machete, resulting in a variant on Nate Grey's usual look) in Ghosts of the Past chapter 8: At the end of the Final Battle in Book 1, Tony Stark and Harry Dresden get into a snarking match that has watching Asgardians taking bets on the winner. |

Mass Effect: Andromeda: Pretty much everyone in Ryder's party at some point. They're like that. But Nakmor Drack and Cora Harper are probably the snarkiest towards one another (unless Drack has an "Old Man Moment"), in a Vitriolic Best Buds way. | |

Breaking Bad: Most of Hank and Steve Gomez's dialogue to one another is a back and forth exchange of biting insults. It's all in good jest though, and they are otherwise as thick as thieves. | |

While many characters in Tales of the Abyss try to keep up with Jade Curtiss's sarcasm, only Emperor Peony can truly defeat him. Put them in a room and they're either snarking at each other non-stop or scheming to snark at others. | |

In BoxxyQuest: The Gathering Storm, Til and Anonymous are a pair of snark masters who get off on the wrong foot, and pretty much never let up on each other from then on. This, of course, gradually levels up into Belligerent Sexual Tension over the course of the game. | |

Ranger's Apprentice Halt usually wins, so when a younger character (usually Will or Horace) wins, they feel a sense of pride, for some reason. Will and Horace also get into it, at least twice a book (and the rate only increases as they grow closer). | |

Frasier and Niles Crane on Frasier were the absolute masters of this trope, often doing it very much intentionally and lampshading it in-universe. It stems mainly from their Sibling Rivalry. | |

In YuYu Hakusho, the same way Yusuke and Kuwabara are always trying to fight each other physically, Hiei and Kurama are always trying to verbally one-up each other. They're usually too dignified to make it obvious that's what they're doing, but almost every dialogue between them will at least end on a quick back-and-forth. | |

In the Village Tales series, the default conversational setting whenever the Duke of Taunton engages anyone who can keep up: which has so far included his Grande Dame and otherwise humorless sister-in-law, his butler the estimable Viney, his best and oldest friend the Nawab of Hubli, and even his Rector, the doggedly decent Canon Paddick. | |

Downton Abbey: Violet and Isobel throw barbs at each other from the start, and in spite of growing from rather cold antagonists to Fire-Forged Friends over the course of the series, the snark does not let up (though it does become significantly less catty). | |
