Okay.  Heres what I would say.  It says as the third option to promise something they think you want.  I think its kind of a knee-jerk reaction to me strumming on your strings.  You could say 'Wow.  You look like you really know how to swim.  Im definitely going to the next swim meet.'  Will you ever do so?  Who cares?  Your a bit flustered... have to say something.  This comes to your lips before you can think of anything better.<br/><br/>Now knowing what we do about the enviromental thing... Id say something a bit different.  I said... "Hello, Harmony.  Nice day for a swim."  You could say, "Nice day for guerilla warfare.  I could offer you a better target than a working joe.  Come up to my room after curfew tonight.  We can talk."  Then give me a wink and walk off... and after a few more posts with other PCs we can settle in on some promise making later.<br/><br/>Whachathink?<br/><br/>PS  Sorry it took so long to tag back.  Trying to watch Stephen Colbert and post.  Hard to do.<br/><br/>
