Getting sick of the back and forward conversation that was getting them nowhere, Robin went back to taunting Rigoletto, wanting him to act in some way. If they fought, he could force the other man to leave. It would only be made easier with Marian's presence.
"You seem surprised that I think you have no honour. That, in itself, is the bigger surprise. Your actions hardly speak of honour, bravery, or even loyalty. I see a man devoted to nothing but self preservation."

Rigoletto heard Robin’s words he could feel his temper flicker even more & his hand tighter, Rigolettos mind light whispered that Robin was simply like others he judged so easily, even if he said he did not & Rigoletto did not feel the need that he had to explain his actions ether. But, he knew that the best thing would be to leave before he lost his temper & killed Robin, because of it. "Think as you will, jugde me as you will, as for self preservation, you are not even close" With out thinking of it, Rigoletto moved to pick up his sword ready to leave but, the way he did it could ready be read as he was ready to strike Robin down, in what many would say was cold blood.
He knowing he was getting know where with Robin but, in doing so he had not thought that Marian might do somthing becouse of his actions, he pointed the tip of his sword at Robin, as he spoke "But, could you stop me if these had been an achole fight, one that would not end on such terms as they have of latly?” He waited for Robin’s words or if he would speak, perhaps this would become a new fight but, only time would tell.

Robin did not flinch as the sword was pointed at him, unconcerned. "Do not flatter yourself by thinking this is the first time I have been in this position. I have faced down many men in the same way, not all as weak as you."
He continued, not even bothering to glance at the sword, sure now that Rigoletto was too much of a coward to use it. "It is time for you to leave, before you are forced into doing something foolish, like try and think, perhaps."

Rigoletto’s felt his temper flicker again, at Robin’s words “You call this facing down, I am not even trying & you call this facing down, what a pity I had expected more form one such as you” At Robins last words “Why not try & make me leave, that is if you think you can, with out any help” Rigoletto challenged, to him there was only him self & Robin, his sword at the ready to fight “Come now, let use finish this” If Robin did not move to strike Rigoletto would, he had been insulted & he was not taking it any more if Robin, wanted to see him as what he conceded him to be then he would show him just how different the two sides of him where.
If Robin did not move to strike then Rigoletto would moved to do a quick upper cut, with force he wanted to make it where f Robin did block the move he would feel it & he might just lose his sword.

Robin laughed harshly at the other man, mocking him still. "Finish? Finish what, you are too cowardly for anything to have even begun. Why don't you just walk away. While you still can."
He glanced over at Marian, giving her an amused smile. This was far too much fun, this man had no idea what he was doing. He was lost in his words, trying to control a situation he had never had a hold on.

Rigoletto heard Robins words "So be it" With out giving warning Rigoletto was quick to strike for Robin, he moved to do a quick upper cut, with force he wanted to make it where f Robin did block the move he would feel it & he might just lose his sword.
Rigoletto was starting to see Robin in a new light, he was starting to think he was more then he was, Rigoletto knew he had done many things & was not prowed of it but, who was Robin to speak so to him. He treated him as some slime & what had he done to him nothing, if that was how he was going to treat him then he would give Robin reason to treat him as so.

Looking across at Marian as he was, Robin did not notice Rigoletto move. He would have paid his actions more attention, but honestly did not think that this man was going to do anything. Not anything violent, anyway.
He glanced back as Rigoletto swung at him, moving to raise his sword but somehow knowing he was too late.

Rigoletto moved to disarm Robin, aiming for his sword should that work he would fallow back with a hit of his sword it would not kill Robin but, it would prove that he had proven he had show some honor before hand & now, he did not know if he could. He knew that he likely would not kill Robin but, then Robin did not need to know what he would or would not know, after all Robin had already made his judgment on him & he did not see anything changing that any time soon. He saw him as a villain & he had in his mind that he could be nothing formed that because he worked under the sheriff & Prince John, even if it was to save more people.

Robin's sword clashed against Rigoletto's as he raised it, knocking it almost completely from his grasp, his weight carried him sideways so he stumbled a step before standing straight to face him again. He lowered his sword, laughing at the pathetic attack.
"See? You are weak. You will never know honour or decency because you do not have the strength to accept that what you do is wrong!"

goletto heard his words “So you say but, you so easy judge & tell me what I am & am not but, you do not know me” Rigoletto moved to strike for Robin’s sword, if he could get Robin’s sword lower or disarmed he would make a hilt strike with his sword for Robin’s chest meaning he only had to take a short steep forward to do so, he also could make a strike at him with the heel of hs boot if need be.
He was growing tired of Robin & his games, he could not believe he was the boy he once knew but, just as everything had change so had many people. Robin might of fought for what he thought was right & then of course any that did not work for him or where his friend where enemies & with out knowing some one he already condemned them to be ether a traitor, weak or something else.

Robin brought his sword around to swing against Rigoletto's, using it to push the other blade down, sweeping both blades sideways so they were not between them.
"I do not know you because you reveal nothing! I asked you if we had met before, you would not answer, I asked to see your face, you would not acquiesce. Why should I treat you with any respect when you have given me no reason?"

"So many questions & yet who could not say you donot hold the answers but, simply did not know it" Rigoletto moved to do quick spin , to shoulder Robin hard, this move would also leave him to guard but away from Robin’s attack, if he made one quick “Respected, twice I did not kill you & on top of it what have you done that shows me that, you are worthy of my respected” He knew that Robin had not got it for his actions but, there was one that had & they where so close, Rigoletto doubted they knew & he doubted Robin knew ether but, he would not speak it but, then he would not harm them ether.

"I do not ask questions if I already know the answers. Lack of killing does not earn respect, or prove honour. Lack of killing shows sense. Reason. You have yet to prove you have honour. If you had it, you would not work for the Sheriff."
Rigoletto's shoulder slammed hard into him, knocking him back several steps as he lost his footing, his sword almost slipping from his grasp as he attempted to right himself so he could again face the other man.

Rigoletto heard Robins words “Ow, I see so that is the hole reason that I have no honor because I work for the Sheriff” -He could only image Robin’s words if he knew, that Rigoletto worked for Prince John. “That does not prove I do not have honor” Rigoletto waited for Robin to get more to his feet before moving to do a shoulder strike working to break Robin’s hold on his sword, if it sent Robin’s sword away he would fallow with a move to hit Robin will the hilt of his sword.

"Well what have you done that proves this honour? What do you do that is so honourable?"
The blow to his shoulder knocked his arm back fast, sending his sword flying. It skittered to a stop in the dirt, a short distance away, his eyes following its path before he glanced back at the other man, his eyes flickering to Marian, comforted that she still held her bow.
