Maybe you could do a prompt of everyone playing a board game that Amy has.

Eh, kdok. (My friend copyrights that phrase by the way xP)
(Board games have been mentioned quite a bit in Sonic Boom. What, with Eggman playing the board game with Sonic and Tails to keep them up late during episode 2 and then with Puppycon being centered AROUND a board game I-… I would actually like to predict that Eggman and Sonic have a fuzzy puppy showdown XD That would be AWESOME! And then there was that fan comic thing about board games… I think it was a board game, anyway, lol moving on~)
Prompt:
"So… h-how-how do I play this now? But more importantly, why am I playing this."
"It's simple."
"Simple? Amy, I'll have you know that Chess is simple to me, but this? This is not logical."
"I want to be the purple one!"
"Okay, Knuckles, but let me explain the rules, again, first, alright?" Amy had the gang in a tight knit circle as Tails looked liked he really had no interest in this 'child's play' and Sonic looked confused. Knuckles? He just wanted to win.
"Alright, the rules are SIMPLE, Tails. We each take some cards that have different scenarios and different ways to get out of them, however, depending on which course of action you take, depends on how closer to the end you get." Amy started explaining, taking the icons on the board that looked like pillars with orbs on them like marbles and moving each color to a certain starting point in front of her friends. "Now, this game is called Soul Search, because each icon I just gave you is your soul, and depending on what course of action you take, determines if your a righteous soul or not. You DON'T want to become the demon, because then you're out of the game. But! If you make it to Saint.." Amy moved her white orb over to the center of the board. "You win! First to get there has bragging rights about being a good person through and through." Amy placed her hands on her hips and smiled, as if she already knew she was going to win.
"Wow, deep game." Sonic looked over the board, commenting.
"Is this really a complicated game? You just choose whatever course sounds the most heroic or saintly, and then you win." Tails shrugged.
"Ah, it's more complicated than that." Amy winked. "You'll see. So-!" She clapped her hands together, "Shall we begin?"
"NOT SO FAST!"
The team looked back, "EGGMAN!?"
They all got up in fighting poses.
"Hold on! I brought an extra piece!" Eggman held up a black icon.
"…You.. how did you know we were gonna play-?"
"Not now, Tails. Scoot over, Sonic. Knuckles. Hehe… I love this game!" he sat happily down with the team, looking rather excited as his knees moved up and down to the side of him, sitting with them crossed.
"….Well, the more the merrier,… I guess." Sonic glared at him, "I don't trust you though."
"Oh please, I've played a game called, 'fuzzy puppies', do you really think I'm not just here to have fun and school the rest of you?" Eggman leered over Sonic, and then got back to his childish excitement. "Oh, ho! me first, me first!" He swiped the cards from Amy, and snickered as he turned to the side, pulling out from his sleeve some different cards… and shuffling them into the deck.
He turned back around as innocent as a fresh new spring daisy. "Alright! Five cards each, right?"
The game went on with fairly regular card questions like, "Stuck in a burning house, what would you save? 1. You're honorable treasures, 2. something of deep, sentimental value. 3. Any necessities you can grab quickly and in reach.
"Wow, I don't know about this one. It's definitely not 'honorable treasures' hmmm… maybe.. Sentimental value sounds saintly. I wonder.." Tails had his hand on his chin, as Amy rolled her eyes.
"The point of the game, Tails, is what YOU would do. Not what's the best option that the game wants you to do."
"Please, Amy. This is a game. The only real point of games is to figure them out. Once you do that, the game becomes enjoyable enough to do in your sleep! Haha." Tails covered his eyes, being playful, and turned the card around. "I choose Sentimental… ha! move 3 squares towards sainthood! Highest move option, yes!" he took his orange icon and moved it in the spiral towards the heavenly lighted area in the center of the board. "And that's how you play a game, easy peasy~" Tails laid back a bit, having his arms behind his head, looking smug in his 'victory' that he felt was inevitable.
"I'm still surprised Sonic's back by 9 moves. Dude, you're gonna get sucked into the Dark Abyss at this rate… which means I'm closer to winning, heh, heh, heh…" Knuckles mocked Sonic, who pouted and lowered his head down, upset as he folded his arms with his cards in his hand.
"It's not my fault! These cards are weird, almost as if they WANT me to mess up and move back…" Sonic looked at his cards, not sure what to make of the questions on them.
"It shouldn't be that hard, there's always a right answer somewhere." Amy states, as the team looks to each other, and then to Sonic again. "Well.. and a moderately so right answer as well." Amy shrugged, trying to make it better for him in some way, feeling bad for him.
"It's a little unlikely you'd not get at least one of those. Try another one." Tails encouraged.
"Ugh, fine. Ehem. You are taken to an abandoned city, and you find some people there, however, they're infected with a… zombie virus? 1. You accept them as your future zombie overlords and become one. 2. You run away like a pansy and don't tell anyone, or 3. you blow the city up. I mean, what kind of question is this!?"
Eggman looks over to Sonic and smirks, before playing up his act again. "Well,… I'm starting to think you're not really a good person, Sonic…"
"What?!" Sonic turns to Eggman, enraged.
"Why not prove it then. What would you do..?" Eggman gestured to the cards, and wickedly held back his most devious laugh, and kept it to a light chuckle. "It is just a game, Sonic. Don't take it to personally…"
Sonic looked down at the options… as his face seemed to show the conflict inside him. "I mean… I'd want to find a cure or… at least, try and keep everyone safe from the virus, I guess." Sonic looked away and scratched the back of his head.
"That's good, Sonic!" Amy happily stated, as he looked to her.
"Yeah, I would help with some Zombie whoopin'. I mean, you know, if there was no cure or whatever…" Knuckles looked down, a bit embarrassed, but then laughed it off in a kind of goofy way.
"I would make a cure, don't you worry, Sonic." Tails proudly wagged his tails, and laughed a little too.
Sonic smiled, looking at his friends, "Thanks, guys. I would definitely count on you three to-"
"Ehem, ah-ha, but that's not the options~ You see~." Eggman gestured back to the cards. "He has to answer based on that! And not some mindless wishful thinking." he glared to Sonic, "Now… choose."
"Geez, alright, I'm going. Wow, you really do get heated up in these board games… don't you, Eggman?" Sonic looked back to his cards before giving him a sideways glance.
Eggman pretended to have the kazoo in his hands, and 'pphhhu'd with an evil laugh. "It's my thing." Eggman shrugged. "Besides building killer robots to destroy you, of course~ Eh-heh, heh." he laughed embarrassedly. "Now hurry up and pick one." he looked upset and impatient.
"..I guess, if there was no cure… I'd want to stop the virus so…" Sonic turns the card over. "Blow up the city."
"Oh, 5 moves back, too bad." Eggman moves his piece further back. "Hehe, my turn!" Eggman gleefully picks a card up.
"5!?" Amy looks shocked. "Hey, hold on, let me see that card…"
Sonic's about to hand it to her when Eggman starts to stumble on his words, looking to her hand and then Sonic's and swiping the card before she could see it. "Well, it's obviously just a really tricky one. A 'hard mode' if you will. Anyway, this one says,…blah, blah, blah… I'd kick the puppy. 8 points back and Ah-HA!" Eggman slammed his black icon into the Abyss area, and grinned, his glasses shining and his mustache curling a little upwards, as if… horns.
"Uuuhhh…" Amy scrolled her eyes up from the board to Eggman, sweat dropping a bit. "That means your out, Eggman."
"Tough luck, so sorry, and now~ To claim my rightful place as the true handsome saint of the heavens!" Knuckles went to pick up a card.
Eggman stopped him by moving his hand on top of Knuckles's. "Not so fast, big boy. Amy… did you forget… the rules?" Eggman chimed, smiling widely to her.
"Uhhh.. what rules are you-"
"The ones that state, clearly, that if a player gets thrown into the abyss while there are still players on the field then he can lead them all down to destruction through… reverse play?" He spun his finger in a backwards circle, as Amy looked confused.
"I don't remember that in the-"
"Tough luck, I remembered, you didn't, we play my way now..~ hehehehe…"
The game took an unexpected turn for the worst, as Eggman started making up his own rules, and making the team feel like every time they tried to make a good decision, it would end badly for them, and made them feel horrible about their decisions.
Eggman laughed evilly, loving crushing their little heroic hearts down to mere powder of low-self esteem in their own actions and beliefs, having them doubt their ideals and own hearts.
The game suddenly changed though, when Sonic found out some of the cards were rigged, having ridiculous questions where all the answers were spaces back.
Finding out Eggman rigged the game to make themselves feel horrible about each other and who they were, the team then took the regular cards, and turned the game around, still allowing Eggman's 'devil icon' to force any 'bad choice' and make the consequence ten times worse for them.
Sonic was the first to finally reach Sainthood, and boy did he slam that bright blue icon down HARD. "And now, new rule…" Sonic smirked to Eggman, who gulped. "Anyone makes a good move, even moderately so, gets ten times the better move spaces." he winked, as the team happily cheered and all made it to sainthood.
"What the-!? Oh, now you're just cheating!" Eggman complained.
"What? By playing the game the RIGHT way?" Sonic stood up with his friends, "I think it's time you left. Au revoir, Eggface. I always knew you were a rotten egg!" the gang looked pretty intimidating, standing above Eggman and looking down at him, pounding their fist as the light above them gave them the rays of a heavenly look.
Eggman quickly skedaddled, grabbing his black icon and false cards in a hurry and racing out. "This isn't over, Sonic! You know you're all bad to the core! You'll see! You're not so saintly as you may thi-!"
Sonic slammed the door, "And that's why we don't play games with Eggman." Sonic folded his arms and looked dead on towards Amy.
"What?! That was ONE TIME, Sonic. And besides, you said you'd be my fuzzy puppies buddy so-" Sonic dashed over and clamped his hand to her mouth, embarrassed that she said that out-loud as Tails and Knuckles's mouth opened and they snickered.
"You're actually still playing that game?" Tails covered his mouth, trying to keep his laughter in.
"Come on, guys! You just proved you were better people than this!" Sonic cried out.
"Better people? I don't know, I barely made it without your help there, buddy. In an option of 'make fun of your friend for liking fuzzy puppies' I would have to say 'laugh out loud'." Knuckles started bursting out laughing, stepping back a bit as his foot touched the dark abyss.
Sonic looked down, and then annoyedly back up at Knuckles, eyelids half down in frustration. "3 back. you lose."
END.
(Hahahhahahah! -kicks legs up- that was fun! :D)
