The Drag-Along	comment	Most of the hero team is eager and ready to go on another adventure, face peril, and explore new regions. But not this guy. This guy would rather stay home, where it's safe. Maybe he doesn't really think the trip is worth it, maybe he doesn't care, or maybe he just has an aversion to painful, dangerous situations. Yet the team wants him to come, so, kicking and screaming if necessary, he comes along anyway. None too happy about constantly being dragged along on adventures, you can usually find this one complaining and making sarcastic remarks, but, when push comes to shove, you can bet that he'll show his heroic traits in the clutch. Contrast the Sour Supporter, who is just as skeptical that things will work out and isn't afraid to voice this, but also joins the adventure willingly and helps contribute despite all the sardonic remarks; and The Load or The Millstone, who may or may not be supportive but whose actions and/or very existence work against the heroes' purposes. A variation on The Complainer Is Always Wrong and I Do Not Like Green Eggs and Ham. Most Drag-Alongs are also Butt Monkeys or Chew Toys, which may justify their reluctance. In the event the group gets into trouble, he'll be the victim of the Guilt by Association Gag no matter how loudly or how many times he protests he Didn't Want an Adventure. Compare Refusal of the Call, Cowardly Sidekick, Cowardly Lion, I Just Want to Be Normal, Dragged by the Collar. Contrast The Team Wannabe but do not confuse with the Tagalong Kid. Also not to be confused with Dragged into Drag, though some unlucky Drag-Alongs may have this happen to them.

The Drag-Along / int_100d4e39	comment	Iago, in Aladdin: The Series, is the quintessential embodiment of this trope. He's more concerned with living in the lap of luxury and staying out of danger, and, as a Card Carrying Coward, is none too happy with being dragged along on some grand adventure every other day (which is understandable, since he's a bit of a pain magnet). True to form, he never stops complaining about it, also making him, as a parrot, a Snarky Non-Human Sidekick. Nearly half his quotes in the show could be page quotes for this, and he always had a bit of Genre Savvy about it. Case in point:

Movie: Much like in the Super Mario Bros. games, the early scenes show that Luigi seems somewhat reluctant to go along with Mario's wilder plans like using Parkour to rush to a plumbing job and sneaking down into the Brooklyn sewers to fix a major city-threatening leak. The Bros.' father explicitly brings this up during supper, as he thinks it's one thing for Mario to stick with his unsuccessful plumbing business but another thing for him to bring down his brother as well.

Whenever Torg or Riff decide it would be fun to summon demons or open portals to other dimensions, she often tries to stay out of it, but can't stop the weirdness from affecting her life. Bun-Bun is also sometimes like this, though he'll hop right on board the adventure train as soon as he sees some benefit in it for himself.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom: Immediately after the sludge gets dispelled from Zora's Domain, Finley rushes off to investigate reports of a glowing rock in a southern Lanayru cave and takes Sasan along with her. Sasan isn't eager to do something so potentially dangerous, especially since he had been separated from Finley for some time due to the sludge keeping him out of Zora's Domain until recently. Not helping matters is that the cave has constantly shifting water levels that make it difficult to progress through; Finley, being a Zora, can just swim ahead easily, but a Hylian like Sasan has to ask Link's help in constructing a makeshift raft.

Max constantly talks him into doing things he would prefer not to, usually because it's either profoundly unsafe (which doesn't bother Max at all) or likely to get him in huge trouble with his dad (or both, such as sneaking onto his dad's in-progress ridiculously tall skate ramp). In the former case, PJ will often make agitated, snarky comments about their mortality.

The Drag-Along / int_c43df4d8	comment	While most Doctor Who companions are those who willingly went with the Doctor to go see the universe, there are a few who wish they didn't have to be in this bloody blue box. First example: Ian and Barbara, the very first companions. They were just teachers concerned for their student's well-being; in exchange, an alien kidnaps them, and is such a bad driver that they get pulled along on many adventures before he drops them back home. (Two years later, we should add!) During the Peter Davison (5th) Doctor era, this became Tegan Jovanka's defining character trait, likely due to flanderization, and too many characters on the TARDIS at the time. Mickey Smith, at first. You can't really blame him. He's nearly killed, his girlfriend abandons him, her disappearance makes him a rape and murder suspect for a whole year. Eventually he goes along in hope that he can regain Rose's affection. Then it turns out that he's pretty good at killing Cybermen, and becomes a professional monster fighter. Similarly, Rory Williams. The only reason he traveled with the Doctor at all was to avoid losing his fiance/wife. Eventually he takes about five hundred levels in bad-ass, but his fighting is always a last resort, and he'd much prefer to have a quiet life as a nurse. Eventually he gets it. The Doctor drops him and Amy on Earth with a shiny new car and house. This also qualifies with Rory's father whose first adventure happened because he was with Amy and Rory when the TARDIS materialized around them. When the Doctor asks why he was there, Rory complains it was his fault. Nardole became the Twelfth Doctor's companion only because River Song knew the latter would need a Morality Chain once she was gone for good and conferred that responsibility upon him. Once the Doctor takes the vow to guard the Vault in the Series 10 Story Arc, Nardole's not only hates being dragged along on adventures elsewhere on Earth, but does everything he can to dissuade the Doctor from traveling on his own and/or with Bill Potts due to the importance of keeping the vow. Still, he is a truly loyal "valet" despite it all. This is something of a plot point in "Oxygen" â€” both Nardole and Bill want to turn back upon getting a taste of the dangers the distressed space station holds, but the Doctor pressures them to follow and soon they can't turn back. When Bill's life looks to be lost and Nardole tries to comfort the Doctor over this, the Doctor furiously proclaims (in spirit though not letter) It's All My Fault because she wouldn't have ended up in danger if he hadn't dragged them along, and doubles down on his efforts to save her.

The Avengers had disbanded at the time, but a bunch of them had gathered at their headquarters, and found Rita there evidently planning on doing a bit of "salvaging". Hercules then drags her along while the Avengers go deal with the latest plot of the week, partly on the grounds leaving her to her own devices in an unguarded base is not a great move. Rocket Racoon in Avengers: No Road Home was brought along mainly because the Hulk thought it'd be a good idea to bring him. And since this was the Hulk of Immortal Hulk, arguing was not an option.

The Drag-Along / int_f5855286	comment	The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom: Immediately after the sludge gets dispelled from Zora's Domain, Finley rushes off to investigate reports of a glowing rock in a southern Lanayru cave and takes Sasan along with her. Sasan isn't eager to do something so potentially dangerous, especially since he had been separated from Finley for some time due to the sludge keeping him out of Zora's Domain until recently. Not helping matters is that the cave has constantly shifting water levels that make it difficult to progress through; Finley, being a Zora, can just swim ahead easily, but a Hylian like Sasan has to ask Link's help in constructing a makeshift raft.

The Drag-Along / int_fd0b756	comment	The Hobbit: Poor Bilbo Baggins was billed as a burglar by Gandalf, for no apparent reason at the time (later explained, however, in the appendices of The Lord of the Rings), and then was dragged out of his comfortable hole in the ground by a party of treasure-hunting dwarves. Inverted after a novel's worth of Character Development—when they finally reach the dragon's lair, the dwarves chicken out and Bilbo is the only one with the guts to go on.

The Drag-Along / int_ffbcb90e	comment	Willie Scott in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom is a drag along from the beginning, and not shy about blasting Indy for it. Many fans of the series rate her as the least interesting of the women, and also because she screeches a lot.
