[It has, in theory, only been a few days since the last time he's seen or spoken to Sora, but considering the events of the past three, it feels as if that time's been stretched on forever. At first, he'd been worried maybe the other had been taken and was down below, but he hadn't spotted him, even in the panic. Which only provided a small bit of comfort, considering.]
[Nah, he was stuck topside all by himself! ...Which probably wasn't much better but hey, he was alive and okay and now taking care of Charlie.
Hearing the ping of a message and then Cloud's voice brightens the exhausted teen and when he answers he sounds genuinely pleased to hear from the other.]
[Better than being stuck in one room with two other people while suffering. You should consider yourself lucky that no one else was there to witness your shame.]
I've been worse. [Cloud, the only time you've possibly ever been worse is when you had mako addiction or one of the times Sephiroth turned you into a human kabob.] I'm heading up to meet Tifa.
[Sora, you are talking to the person who got a life threatening disease and decided it was better for everyone if he slunk off and died alone. This really shouldn't be all that surprising.]
They should be heading down your way. [Which meant that was one less thing he had to worry about. He was pretty sure Leon wasn't going to let Sora do anything stupid.
Well, anything life endangering stupid, anyway.] Be careful down there, okay?
Really? [He hadn't gotten a chance to speak to either of them yet but he's very pleased to hear that.] I'll have to send them a message and see which path they're taking!
[Traveling alone wasn't terrible but...after that whole mess of being sick and alone and feeling like he was going to die? Sora really wants some traveling companions right now.]
I will, I promise! You and Tifa better be careful too, alright? [His tone takes on a serious note for that last bit.] Please?
[Being careful wasn't exactly something he or Tifa was exceptionally good at. Taking risk, being reckless, doing what needed to be done, those were all things they did well.]
You got it. [They probably wouldn't be, but there wasn't really any reason to make Sora worry any more than he already did.] I'll check up on you in a couple of days.

Hey, you doing okay?
[You know, besides for the radiation poisoning.]

Good! I'm glad to hear that. [A pause.] On both accounts. I'm going to try and find Leon and Sheena if I can. Maybe Rin too!
