Uh-huh. Like run away. [Don't think he forgot Chobe's sudden split their first meeting. Forcing him to stay and play is a stupid decision, but being a brat and enticing him? Bakugo not mature enough to avoid stooping. There is one benefit to swindling instead of snapping: the rewards flow doesn't stop if you play the game. Part of him wants to see how quickly Chobe picks up on the game. The other part of him... has other motives. Not gonna admit them to his face.
He cants his head slightly, lips curling in a brief "tsk!" across an annoyed, dismissive expression.]
I play games I can win with skill. I'm not gonna sink money in a game of chance. [He likes to control his efforts. Challenging himself by besting and achieving high scores against people with other skills. Not throwing some shitty dice or hoping you get a good hand and know how to bluff a table. Yeah, there's skill to gambling. Even the slots. But ultimately, it's a risk he doesn't need to take. Not when he can blow throw these things, have a bit of fun, reap repeated rewards, and then spend the rest of the day doing whatever he wants rather than get suckered into recouping losses he incurred by being unlucky.
Chobe agrees to one round and Bakugo taps the button, activating the practice round.] You've got the gist of how you play.
[He noticed the guy watching him, his hands, the screen, enough to figure it out. On the screen, the game begins to cycle through the globes, lighting each one up and waiting for a smack to capture successful hits.]
