* ''Fanfic/CutMyLifeIntoPiecesThisIsMyLastResort'' has s one-sided example on Chat Noir's part, who's grown increasingly frustrated with Ladybug's lies and secrecy. The straw that breaks the camel's back is when [[spoiler:Marinette reveals herself to still be alive, but he still doesn't know that she's Ladybug, which only makes him angrier with the latter]]. [[spoiler: This leads to him temporarily breaking off his partnership with her after [[CassandraTruth she claims that Hawk Moth is Gabriel Agreste.]]]]

Added DiffLines:

''Fanfic/TruthAndConsequences'':
** EnemyMine aside, Ladybug and Hawk Moth still ''despise'' each other. At one point, Adrien even wonders if they couldn't just hide from the two until the partnership [[EnemyCivilWar implodes on its own]].
** The rest of Team Miraculous with Mayura (Luka). Though, in his defense [[spoiler:his Miraculous is [[TheCorruption infected with]] ''[[TheCorruption something]]'' worse than an akuma]].
** When everything goes to pot, all of the heroes make it very clear that nothing is forgiven where Marinette's concerned, but they still choose to put aside their grudge to stop Hawk Moth.
** In ''Mending Warped Designs'', there's a one-sided example on Chat Noir's part. He absolutely ''hates'' having to work with [[TheAtoner Ladybug]] again, and for the most part regards her as simply a [[GodzillaThreshold necessary evil]] at best, and as TheLoad at worst. [[ItsAllMyFault Ladybug,]] on the other hand, ''desperately'' wants to [[MustMakeAmends make amends]] with him by any means, despite fully resigning herself to the fact that [[ThisIsUnforgivable he will likely never love or even tolerate her again.]] This even includes [[spoiler: TakingTheBullet for Chat Noir to prove that she's sincere. It's this that convinces him that she's truly changed.]] Adrien's equally unhappy about working with Nathalie, and even outright admits in Chapter 22 that he ''hates'' her.

* In ''Fanfic/LuzAndHuntersRoadtripExtravaganza'', Luz and Hunter find themselves stranded in Dallas, Texas, when they are still butting heads with each other because the former is learning to be a wild witch and the latter is supporting Belos' tyranny. Being forced to team up as they trek to Connecticut for a portal back to the Boiling Isles causes a lot of squabbling.

* ''Fanfic/ThereWasOnceAnAvengerFromKrypton'': The [[Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse Masters of the Mystic Arts]] and the [[WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug Miraculous Guardians]] are technically on the same side, but there's been friction between them for a while. The Guardians think that the Masters recklessly promote the use of the Miraculouses, long after the initial purpose of the activation has been fulfilled, for the sake of having allies to keep the balance of the magical world, while the Masters didn't like how overzealous the Guardians were in separating the Kwamis from their Chosen even when there wasn't any harm in letting them stay together. When the Guardians vanished, the Ancient One concluded that they were basically throwing a tantrum and sealing themselves away to force the Masters to take up their responsibilities.

* ''[[https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/a-new-kind-of-fairy-queen-fairy-tail-dresden-files.985456/ A New Kind of Fairy Queen]]'': [[Manga/FairyTail Erza Scarlet]] has a difficult time working with Harry Dresden and Susan Rodriguez to save Maggie.
** She’s angry with Harry because he summoned her away from Maggie during an attack by the Red Court, which allowed the Reds to capture Maggie. While she acknowledges that he was just trying to save his daughter from a being who he had every reason to believe was a danger to her, even at great risk to himself, she still plans to kill him if Maggie dies.
** She hates Susan for leaving Maggie in Red Court territory, knowing what could happen. As far as Erza is concerned, if they all survive, she’s amenable to giving Harry a chance to be part of his daughter’s life, but Susan has failed her too badly to forgive.

* ''Fanfic/AmazingFantasy'' (''Manga/MyHeroAcademia'' & ''Franchise/SpiderMan''): The Prowler makes it clear that she does ''not'' like Mysterio and is only working for him because she's ordered to. She loudly disparages him in his safe house after he saved her from All Might, [[FlippingTheBird gives him the middle finger]] when he demands to know why she couldn't kill Peter, and mocks his insistence on the phrase "squash the bug". Mysterio in turn calls Prowler a bitch behind her back and would like nothing more than to put her in her place, but refrains from doing so to maintain his business relationship with her boss, All For One.

* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/1857017/1/The-New-Teacher The New Teacher]]'': Franchise/SpiderMan has to confront all four of his major Goblin adversaries- the Green Goblin, the Roderick Kingsley Hobgoblin, the reborn Jason Macendale 'Cybergoblin' and the also-restored Demogoblin- when the entity known as Shadow Spider attempts to sacrifice Spider-Man for power. Although the Goblins prove to be so dangerous that the ComicBook/XMen have to save Peter, none of the four Goblins are entirely happy at having to work together, only going along with the alliance out of fear of what Shadow Spider will do to them if they fail.

* In ''Fanfic/TheAmazingSpiderManTruePurpose'', Rogue basically seems set to be the member of the Unity Squad who has the most difficulty with Spider-Man as the team's leader, to the extent that she is the only member openly angry about how Spider-Man is alive instead of Xavier (Logan, Carol, Ben and Hope are definitely Peter’s friends, Thor and Wanda liked both men but weren’t especially close to either, and Havok is more willing to let the matter go). Ben Grimm in particular objects to the idea of joining the team simply because he would have to work with Rogue, although Spider-Man convinces him to join regardless because when the team’s goal is to improve relations between the Avengers and the X-Men Peter doesn’t want to fire Rogue simply because she doesn’t get along with him.

* In ''Fanfic/VoyagesOfTheWildSeaHorse'', the Kamikaze Pirates initially don't get on with each other at all. Kodachi Kuno, Ukyo Kuonji and Shampooo are eager to verbally or even literally backstab each other for their [[LoveDodecahedron shared mutual love interest]] and the first mate, Ryoga Hibiki, proudly defines himself as TheRival to their captain, Ranma Saotome, to the point he was only given the role of first mate because it was judged he was the ''least'' likely member of the crew to use it to screw over his other crewmates. That said, with CharacterDevelopment they eventually tone it down to more a love of teasing each other (the girls), and [[SarcasticDevotee cynical or sarcastic commentary whilst still obeying orders]] for Ryoga.
