Weekly Plot Help - November 17th

I was waiting until the server move happened before putting this up. I'd have gone crazy if it had been lost.

Anyway - here's the place for you to look for help with your plots! Post your questions here.

And hey... all you people already over 50K? YES I'M LOOKING AT YOU! Get in here and help these people out now that you don't have anything else to do! *grin*

I've tried (several times) and failed to find a way to get the two of them talking either before, during or after one of the swimming sessions.

That's because men don't talk. (This is coming from my husband, btw.) Especially in locker rooms. Particularly when wearing Speedos. Such a thing could be construed as *gasp* GAY. (Not that there's anything wrong with that.)

Can you have them meet somewhere other than the pool? Like in the cafeteria, or at a bar, or during class? It might be easier to get them talking about something if they're away from the pool, and recognize each other from all those attempted conversations.

Exactly - the changing room conversation didn't seem at all likely to me either!
I'm toying with the idea of them meeting in the leisure centre cafe or something like that. No Speedos in sight!
