Silver decides to accept that this is the best he'll get from them, and gives them a smile.

"I wish you best of luck."

Sundown blinks, and looks at Silver a little longer

"Thank you." And then she turns, and moves away

Silver and Pear follow Sundown and Askfalt, staying some paces back. Both of them look back, but there isn't anything they can do or even complain about, as both pairs are presumably going to the same location. It's down the stairs to the second floor, then down to the basement, and back through the tunnel, where it goes into the second tunnel, and then into the church basement, and back into the church. The two griffins look back when both enter the church basement, but make no contact as they go back up.

Of course this means that they remain within at least earshot for this whole period of time, lasting several minutes.

Silver is content with remaining silent along the journey, unless Pear has something to say. He gives the griffons a smile every so often when they turn around.

The two turn around and face Silver and Pear. The ponies would need to walk past them to leave the church. Pear is cautious but moves forward, and then Sundown speaks to Silver, asking:

This answer seems to please her. A smile slowly comes to cover her face, fully enveloping it as she tilts her head down, but looks back up towards Silver. There's a definitely mischievous, or even malign quality to it. "She has told me why she is here. Why don't you tell me why you are here?"

He points to Pear, or at least in her general direction.

Her stance has completely changed, from distrust to a smile and tiptoed posture that looks perhaps even seductive

She waves back, and after a moment, Askfalt does as well. Pear waves to them, and gives a light smile. They start to leave the church, though they linger to see if Silver and Pear are leaving as well.

She twitches her still tied up tail, and the book she carries almost sticks out of her pack.

"They were willing to open up after a while, after I convinced them I had no interest in the police or any persecution. You saw they weren't entirely sure with you. Neither of them was a priest and so didn't have intimate knowledge of how the rituals worked or of the precise details about many parts of the theology, but I got something out of them. I think they may have held back out of diffidence, but that is to be expected. I don't think I would have done any better with a more obviously captive pair of subjects like at the jail. I think the money you gave them really loosened them up." She says

"I would bet. It's exciting, but it was more than a little nerve wracking seeing a griffin charge at us with a machete. I... Don't think I would like to do that every day. But I suppose you get paid well enough you don't need to.(?)"

"I figured. Being an Associate Professor is better pay than most jobs, but less than you'd think, especially for eight years of school."

She hops back over, and towards floof pone, jumping up, and hugging him. She moves over his shoulders, wrapping a leg around him. She is rather small, has a short coat, a long mane that is kept in a tie, and is generally dainty. It takes her a moment to reply, as she positions herself over him.

"Well, for the education level."

Silver slows down to be able to enjoy the hug and this bit of pony interaction. He brings his opposite foreleg around to pat the petite unicorn who is so opposite to him in body size.

"Huh. I always figured college was how one got to have really high paying career. Either that or learning trade."

She closes her eyes at the large foreleg coming down on her. She isn't that much smaller in terms of dimensions, but her build is much less massive, and it is easy to see.

"Air conditioning...is it that one machine that cools air in room? Now that is fancy. I can see why that would be perk."
