Sentence # 36

36. Market

The first time Duo had gone with Quatre to the Arabian market and watched him haggle with the vendors – speaking too fast for Duo to catch all the words – he had been angry at how much Quatre fought to save a few credits when he certainly didn't need them; it was another vendor, standing close, who explained to Duo that the haggle wasn't about the money, but about dance: it was a contest of wit, strategy and perseverance, and it was beautiful to watch.

It's about winning, at the end. Proving who's smarter, wittier, and testing each other. I think that's what Quatre likes it so much, and why, even though he can, he wouldn't pay a penny more than what was agreed. The selles wouldn't appreciate it.
