Cover art for chapter 1 of "Dandelion: Weed of all trades" featuring the two protagonists. Both are wearing dark blue store clerk aprons with name tags and chequered collared shirts. The shorter person's tag says "Dande", her shirt is green and she has yellow bob hair with a tuft resembling a dandelion on top. She's grinning nervously while striking a peace sign. The taller person's tag says "Malin", her shirt is yellow and her hair is long and light brown, it's tied to pigtails with pink bows that resemble the nib of an ink pen. She's smiling and striking a confident pose, one arm on the hip, one behind her head. In front of Dande is a figure covered in flames, and in front of Malin is a purple girlish figure with a daffodil in her hair, holding a large paint brush. A large green figure looms in the background.

A dark scenery filled with large, partially cracked eggs with faces, leafless trees with branches curled into spirals, crooked mountains and a castle, and a path walked by tired looking people with balls and chains tied to one of their ankles. One person is nearing collapse and another is laying face down. A canine creature is chewing on bones. A close up panel shows a worn down couple carrying a baby. Their facial features are obscured outside of their eyes displaying sadness, and the baby is crying and seems to be losing teeth. The page ends on a panel showing the family noticing a bright light shine from behind them.

A comic page from Dandelion. Dande: "Malin, Eloranta, butler!! I have to focus everything on him!! So until this ends, I LEAVE SIRU TO YOU!!!" Malin: "W-Weren't you already doing that?!" Kotoha smirks. The old man blitzes next to Dande and delivers a thunder punch, which she blocks with a kick. The electricity zaps her leg and destroys part of her trousers from around her ankle and knee. "Girl...puny as it may be, name thy Väki!!"

A comic page from Dandelion. Ukko: "...Watch your tongue. I told you, it never mattered how serious you got. I am Ukko, the sole wielder of Thunder Väki. You know what that means, right? I alone am honoured...BY HEAVEN ITSELF!!!" The old man sends multiple lightning bolts down from the sky, Kotoha blocks one headed her, Malin's and Emilia's way, while Dande dodges.

A comic page from Dandelion. Ukko: "...It was an accident. I had too much to drink, and let lightning loose in the sauna... Yet another sin for me to bear." He notices Dande getting up. She thinks back to a time she was reading a book about Ukko the Supreme God in bed, covered in bruises, while her grandma Aure was having a night drink. Aure: "It's a fine book, but don't think it'll prepare you for the real deal. That kind of power...you just have to experience. In its hay day, at least... Gah, the North's such a disgrace...! Louhi is a lost cause, that much I can say, but...I still want to believe...in Ukko." Ukko: "Hmph... Do you still think you're up for this fight?" Dande: "No..."

A comic page from Dandelion. Tutta: "My bro...is there...isn't he?" Her brother's shirt is hanging in a clothes rack next to the sauna. "Is...he unwell...? Can you...help him? Y-You're a doctor, aren't you?" Emilia, holding in panic: "...We have to leave...!!" Tutta: "Wha...?! H-Hey, come on...!! You promised to help!! H-He'll be okay, right?! Please...! No... No, no...!! Please, he's okay!! He has to be!!!" Tears are flowing down Tutta's face, as if she already knows. "He has to...! P-Plea-" Ukko: "Your brother died already. I killed him."

A comic page from Dandelion. Tutta, to Ukko: "My...big bro...! Wh...WHERE'S MY BIG BRO?!" The old man seems to realize something, then looks away. Malin's eyes widen. Tutta: "Not telling, huh...? I'll just have to look, then, d-don't try and stop me...!! I'll start here!!" Malin: "T-Tutta, don't!!" Tutta runs towards the sauna door, right as Emilia steps outside. Tutta: "Oh, hey! Did you find my bro?!" Emilia doesn't respond, and instead kneels down to hug Tutta. Tutta: "Hey...! L...Let go! I have to go...find my bro...! Hey, miss...!" She looks towards the door, as panic starts to dawn on her face. "...Hey...miss..."

A comic page from Dandelion. Huugo, the golden owl, is thrown by Tutta to block the lightning that was about to hit Dande. Ukko, thinking: "The golden owl...!! Why is it here?!" Tutta: "GO, HUUGO!!!" Malin: "Tutta?! So you DID follow us, go home!!" Huugo appears energized for a second but then falls to the ground, still having injured wings. Tutta, to someone: "H-Hey, you there...!!"

A comic page from Dandelion. Malin: "DANDE!!!" Dande falls in front of the old man, as he raises his hand to throw another lightning bolt. Ukko: "So you have some sense after all, however...the outcome was never...in your hands." Malin: "K-Kotoha, help!!" Kotoha: "I would, but...!" A lightning shoots down from the sky and Kotoha blocks it with her bow. "We're not exactly safe, either!!" Dande and Siru seem like they're about to do something about the incoming attack, when Siru notices something on the side.

A comic page from Dandelion. Just as things are looking up, Dande gets struck by a massive lightning bolt from the sky before she lands. Malin is in shock. As she's getting zapped, Ariel's words from chapter 10 flash through Dande's mind: "...the next time you get hurt...you will BEG to have a say." The lightning passes and Dande coughs up blood and smoke.

A comic page from Dandelion. Dande, thinking: "Malin...to be honest, my idea of "liking myself" might just be something that you wouldn't, well, like... I can't change just like that. But, a promise is a promise, so, thanks...for making me treat myself...a little better." Dande smiles, and Malin looks relieved. But Siru looks up with a worried look.

A comic page from Dandelion. Malin screams "NO!!!", seeing lightning shoot through Dande. Kotoha, thinking: No more games, huh?! How will you respond, master?" Dande coughs while holding her stomach and says: "I don't recall asking you to, in the first place...!" Ukko: "...Aure, you have raised a fool. I shall bear the sin...of putting her out of her misery!!" He raises his fist and envelopes it in lightning once more. Dande braces for the attack and thinks: "Alright...!! If I can endure this, then I'll be worthy, right?! GRANDMA!!" Malin: "H-Hey...! Come on!! Stop...!! Please...!" Her voice gets gradually smaller and she thinks: "...I can't...speak up...! This isn't my place... I knew that...! I knew, but..." Panels showing Dande from Malin's perspective get gradually watery, and Dande then glances at her.

A comic page from Dandelion. Dande headbutts and uppercuts the old man and then gets punched herself, while thinking: "This is it...!! I can punch without worrying, I can feel pain from getting punched, and...if I get weeded out, then I just wasn't...fit for the job!!!" She goes for another punch, but this time the old man punches her in the gut and lightning shoots out of her back. ZAPP!! Ukko: "Enough. I'm done playing by your rules."

A comic page from Dandelion. Squidlapp, to the old man: "Sh...Should I assist you, sir...?" Ukko: "You're still here? I told you to get lost!!" Squidlapp: "Right... I DO have an actualmission, so, don't mind if I do..." While saying this, he seems to be eyeing Malin. Ukko, to Dande: "More and more recklessness... Not valuing your life is one thing, but weren't you going to drive me away, for the town's sake?" Dande: "Oh, it will be done. But you need a bit of fun in the workplace!" Kotoha: "Thrillseeking...? I, too, enjoy being tested. But this is a bit..." Dande starts throwing hands with the old man again, landing a left elbow to his face and a right knee to his chest while he catches her right punch.

A comic page from Dandelion. Malin is horrified to see Dande take such an attack head on, but even the old man is shocked to see her still fiercely grinning under his weight, and she then bounces him off her, throwing her arms open wide as if she was powering up, and kicks him in the ribs and into the ground.

A comic page from Dandelion. The ultimate squid technique isssss "TACTICAL RETREAT!!!" Squidlapp simply runs out the door while Kotoha shouts "Where's the ink cloud?!" even if it's a squid maneuver to retreat it should be a bit more squid like, no? Emilia: "...You can handle him, I'll look for those men." Kotoha: "With pleasure." Kotoha runs after Squidlapp, but as soon as she steps out the door, Dande drops from the sky on her back, into the ground between them.

I posted art here every day in 2025, in addition to also doing daily work on the comic and having a full time job since march, thank you to anyone who liked, shared or commented on any of it!🐢 I still have hundreds of Dandelion pages and a bunch of random art to go, so I'll do my best this year too~

Unrelated but it's my birthday🐢

A comic page from Dandelion. Emilia: "Butler...!" Kotoha: "Doctor. I was too focused on the fight to sense other enemies nearby... An inexcusable blunder...!!" Emilia, while hopping onto Nitro-chan's back while still shrunk: "N-No, thank you..." Squidlapp: "The one who did in Krisse... How damn fast are you...? And bullet proof, to boot... But of course, it should require no less than a teaming up of at least two notable foes to bring down the great COMMODORE SQUIDLAPP!!!" Kotoha: Have we seen him before? Emilia, while returning to her normal size: "I...think he was in the submarine?" Kotoha: "Ah, the one who ran. So he just swam to the nearest post to provide obligatory backup." Squidlapp flips them off, with both his hand and a tentacle. Kotoha, thinking: "Functional tentacles, quite a step up from the previous animal people... I want to cut his throat." Squidlapp, thinking: "...Looks like I have no choice... Once again...I must apply the ultimate squid technique."

A comic page from Dandelion. Emilia managed stick a syringe into Squidlapp's shoulder. "Good night...!!" However, he shoots through that spot on his own shoulder after yanking the syringe off. "AARGHH, JESUS!!! So much for silence, then! Go ahead and shrink, see if that helps when I unload!!!" Emilia shrinks herself and again thrusts her hands forward, seemingly ready to stop the incoming spray of bullets, but this time Kotoha swoops into the scene and deflects every bullet with her violin bow.
