Kawasaki Akiko
Magica Gaia
Look, I didn't want to become a magical girl but because nobody else is taking this serious someone needs to do it. You all need a straight man in the group.
Out of the entire group, Akiko is one of the work-oriented of us all. A fellow classmate of my highschool and while only a Magical Girl for a few weeks, she grew surprisingly efficient in it! So to lighten her workload, we decided to let her join Union Magica.
Kawasaki Akiko, Workaholic
The oldest of a family of five, trying to get food on the table is...difficult for her. Her father and mother work as much as she does, and she has been doing a student job during weekends at a local diner named the Koi Cook. Her father knows the owner, so a job was easy to get.
Besides that, she also has a small garden that she sells fruits and vegetables from. Money doesn't grow on trees, but she tries to think so with how business-oriented she is. I swear she either is studying, or working. I have yet to see her actually have a real hobby besides that.
In all seriousness, knowing where the Overworked come from, I always feel worried about her schedule. Her sleep schedule alone is screwed beyond repair, and while she does enjoy working, I swear she is neglecting herself while doing so...

Magica Gaia
Akiko only has been a magical girl for like at best a few weeks, but out of all of us she seems to be the best at her job. Going by Magica Gaia, she acts as our long-range support, using her skills to a surprising effiency.
Granted, being so busy with many other things in her life, she tends to be only an occasional teammate. We always have her own backup though, but working hours go above saving the city. Besides, it's not like we can't do this job by ourselves...
...right?
Equipment
Akiko often has so little time to change between work and magical girl situations that she has used her work outfit as her magical costume. granted, with a little tweaks and adding a mask, since she the only one who doesn't really "hide" her appearance otherwise. At least she has a spare, so she can patch up any battle damage while still having another for work.
Weapon-wise, she actually bothered to learn using a bow, so at least we have a long-range fighter in our team. Granted, it's but a wooden bow, as it's a surprise how often it breaks in combat. While her arrows can pierce the hides of the things we fight, seems her powers somehow don't want to give said durability towards her bow.
Ability: Plant Growth
Her main ability is encouraging the growth of plants, which helps her both outside and in battle. Any plant life she touches grows and ages at a faster pace, which she can somewhat control the speed of. As such, she can make an acorn become a whole tree in the span of a day... But doing so might tire her out or leave her unconcious for a while.
Funnily enough, she likes to experiment a lot with the possibilities of these powers so she always has like several seeds with her at any given time. Everything from making branches for arrows to engulfing foes in ivy, she has a seed packet for every occasion!
Familiar: Piper
Piper and Akiko welcomed one another with her trying to smash him with a broom open arms. Ever since, he has helped her get the hang of her powers, making a surprisingly self-sufficient team.
He is worried though about her workload, so to lighten it he helps with home chores alongside a few friends he made in Osen city's sewers. Kinda jealous she doesn't have to clean her room.
The restaurant's off limit though. Not worth risking her job for as she says.
