[Well, with his wing gone Zoe will have to come to the armory to find Cunning. However, when she enters the arena in the middle of the armory, she won't find a tall, cloaked figure.
Instead, she sees a blond guy dressed in jeans and a long-sleeved shirt, rolling his wrists to stretch them out and also rolling his neck to loosen up. From this angle, she can see a large, pale scar running from the bottom of his eye down to his chin, and when he hears her he does nothing to actually face her.]
This arena's smaller, but it might be better to teach you in enclosed quarters anyway.
Camp was located on the Long Island Sound. The city itself was a quick drive in. Olympus was above the Empire State Building. [He shakes his head.] But yeah. That explains that.
A whole twenty-five huh? Amazing. If only I were so lucky.
[He seems pretty calm and relaxed which is maybe different than what Zoe might have expected.] Stretch and warm up, we're going to run a couple of drills.

[Hi.]
no subject
[But that doesn't stop the smile that's spreading across her face as she realizes he's unmasked.]
I bet it'll be easier with you like this, too.
no subject
Should I ask what you were expecting?
no subject
[He seems much more normal than she thought, basically. It's fine.]
no subject
Zo, it was 2009 when I left. I grew up mostly in New York. Jeans are kind of a staple and I didn't feel like wearing armor. [So there's that.]
no subject
[what does that even mean]
no subject
[Please explain, Zoe.]
no subject
[She’s joking, maybe.]

[She starts as he indicates, but as she goes:]
Hey, tell me some obscure fact you want to know about me, I want to get that rule out of the way.

That’s really what you want to go for? So boring.
no subject
[...] Fine, whatever. What about...the dumbest secret you ever kept?
no subject
[She rolls her shoulders, thinking.]
When I was a kid, I tried to adopt a kitten and thought my parents wouldn't find out.
no subject
[He considers that before there's a snort of laughter.] Let me guess. They found out within an hour?
no subject
[Hm.]
They found it so fast. It didn't help that I kind of... grabbed it from outside because I thought it was cute, so it wasn't exactly tame.
no subject
[There's a hum though before he nods.] My name's a duplicate in this competition.
no subject
[Anyways.]
Am I allowed to go one by one, or do I get a limited number of guesses here?
no subject
[A joke.] These things come in threes. [He holds up three fingers, wiggling them a bit.] Three guesses, and if you don't get it you'll never know.
