Oh well, writing attempt:
Spoiler for Children's play:
Children's play (or when doing things not in your job description turns out bad)
“You must be kidding!”
“This is kind of embarrassing.”
“We're doing this! No buts! A mere play won't scare the former members of Riot Force 6! Besides, whose fault is it that the theater group is currently hospitalized?”
“Nyahaha!”
“Can't we just hire a new set of performers?”
“That would cost too much! This is much quicker and fun!”
“Rein wants to help too!”
“Mistress, is there anything else I should do beside put this on?”
“No, it's alright. Everybody ready?”
...
Silence.
“Alright, get to your places!”
On stage
Yagami Hayate stepped from the side of the stage in front of the waiting crowd. She looked at the little kids in front of her then slightly back at the red curtains behind from where sounds of running footsteps and things falling could be heard, then returned to the people in front of her.
“Dear children of the Belkan Magic School and esteemed teachers. Due to unforeseen circumstances the Happy Children Go-Go Safe and Fun Theater Group can not come and attend the show today. Therefore, in a joint project between the Ground Forces, Air Forces and Navy, the TSAB Military shall be bringing you a fun, educational and worksafe show. Introducing.... the Befriending Group!” Hayate stopped her speech and looked at the hall. The teacher sitting at the end of a row nodded approvingly at her speech, while the children couldn't care less about who was going to make the show. Scouting the rows of little kids, she saw a small pair of surprised green and red eyes, sitting near a similar pair of blue and red eyes. Taking a large intake of air, Hayate continued her almost on the spot speech.
“Today, we shall be performing the popular old Belkan Fairy Tale Schneewittchen ('Snow White' for the Mid speaking population). Due to technical difficulties, the first arc shall be skipped entirely and we shall be going directly into the second arc of the story. Enjoy!”
Hayate sighed and started walking towards the edge of the stage as the curtains retreated to reveal the scenery behind them. The current background was a forest scenery with a small wooden cottage and front yard.
„After being forced to run away from her evil step mother, Snow White Nanoha finds herself alone in the dark forest. After walking for what seemed like ages, she finally arives to a small hut in the forest.”
Nanoha, dressed up in something very similar to her barrier jacket, stepped up on the stage. She walks around and pretends to investigate the cardboard house. From behind her come Fate, Signum, Vita, Shamal, Zafira (in human form) and Rein, all of them wearing large coats that covered their whole bodies and some pointed colored hats, with white puff balls at the end.
“Ho, ho, ho we're the dwarfs from the forest and we like to mine gold and sleep all night.” the six “actors” recited their badly written lines in unison with very little enthusiasm.
“Who's this, who's this??” a little excited Rein flew towards a surprised looking Nanoha and circled her.
“My name is Snow White Nanoha... and I think I'm lost.”
“You can stay with us!” Rein continued excitingly. “I'm Happy Reeeiiiin!” she finished with a long swoosh around Nanoha.
“Sleepy Shamaaaal.” Shamal proceeded to introduce herself, followed by a long yawn.
“Umm... Ba-bashful Fate.” Fate stepped forward embarrassed by the whole situation.
“I am Sneezy Signum. Achoo.” Signum followed after Fate, her serious voice far too serious for the role,much to Hayate's despair backstage who was motioning to them to liven up the act.
“Grumpy Vita.” The little Knight introduced herself crossing her arms in front of her chest afterwards.
“And this is Dopey Zafira. He can't speak, but then again, he hasn't even tried yet!” Rein finished pointing towards the only male from the group. At that, the wolf only replied by twitching his ears in annoyance.
“Now, let's all welcome Snow White Nanoha with a partyyy!” Rein yelled and grabbed Fate's and Shamal's hand and proceeded to make a circle-like formation around Nanoha.
“Shit, I'm not doing this!” Vita yelled when Rein was about to announce that they were going to sing and dance around on stage. She parted from the group and started trampling towards the backstage.
“Grumpy Vitaaaa!” Nanoha tried pleading while going to bring Vita back.
“And Snow White Nanoha was accepted with the six dwarfs and they lived happy and exciting days together!” Hayate interrupted the unnecessary scene and brought the curtains back in front of the stage to cover up for the incoming mess.
Backstage
“This is silly!”
“There's just two more scenes left!”
“Viiitaaa!”
“Umm... but this isn't really how the story goes book-wise speaking.”
“Hayate said improvise, improvise.”
“You aren't going to disobey our Mistresses orders, are you Vita?”
“If Hayate says so... “
“Alright everyone. Ready? Come on Nanoha, it's our important scene next.”
On stage
The same decorations as before. Nanoha walked around the stage idly pretending to tend to garden around the house. From the right side of the set, Hayate appeared wearing a long black cloak covering her whole body including her head. She walked slowly towards Nanoha, pretending to limp and to walk as an old lady.
“What a beautiful day...”
“Would you like an apple, deary?”
“No, maybe I shouldn't.”
“But they're fresh. Oh and clean and juicy. Surely a bite wouldn't hurt.” Hayate searched through her sleeves of the coat and revealed a large red and juicy apple. Nanoha took it and looked at it, then turned towards the little kids that were watching, including her daughter.
“And remember kids, if taking things from strangers, always wash them before eating!” Rubbing the apple against her clothes, she took a bite and chewed it throughly, before taking another bite from the large apple.
“Nanoha! You're supposed to faint!” Hayate whispered towards her friend.
“Oh... yea!”
And Nanoha fell to the ground, Hayate laughed her way backstage, and the six dwafs ran on stage to find the mess that had happened while they were away.
Backstage
„Why me?”
„I am not the one that should be answering this. But Fate-san was too heavy for the role and you are the smallest and most fitted. Rein would be unnapropriate.”
„Who are you calling you calling small, wolf? I could strangulate you on the spot!”
„Viitaa! Zafira! Go on stage already!”
On stage
“The dwarfs mourned the death of Snow White Nanoha by the hands of the evil Witch, and they made her a crystal coffin like no other. They also placed it in the middle of a clearing, so that everybody might see the tragedy that had befallen them. But all was not lost, as a mighty prince, mounted on a mighty steed, was to pass through those realms that day...”
Vita, with her hair let loose, appeared on stage, mounted on Zafira in wolf form who was supposed to play the role of the 'mighty steed'. Vita looked behind her at Hayate who was giving her a thumbs-up sign. Zafira started walking on the stage, and carried her with him. Vita looked in front of her at the makeshift coffin, which was a pile of boxes with a white sheet above, on which Nanoha seemed to be sleeping peacefully.
She dismounted the poor Zafira, who whimpered off stage quickly and approached the sleeping girl. Vita slowly grabbed Nanoha by both shoulders and slowly started approaching her face to Nanoha's. Her eyes went from sleeping person whose breath was close enough to feel on her face, to the crowd of little children who were all looking intently at them.
“Nanoha...”
“WAKE UP!”
Vita shook Nanoha by both shoulders until the brunette finally decided to open her eyes. “V-Vita-chan?” she asked as the knight helped her get up and the two walked together towards the back side of the stage.
“And the princess was awaken from her apple-induced coma and the two lived happily ever after. The end!” Hayate finished quickly by stepping in front of the scene while the curtains were once again closing. Then she dashed behind the curtains to the safety of the backstage. At first, everything was quiet. Then he crowd started a very faint applause and the teacher facepalmed.

Subtle, Vita. Veeery subtle.
But then, the chances of Vita kissing Nanoha in front of an audience are pretty close to nil.

And Syn hates getting dressed up. Her mother and Vivio are two of the few people who can manage to do that to her.
