[It's alright, that's why he has this line. It's relatively secure and offers an easy way to contact him in case of emergency.
This counts as an emergency.]
Wait, what? [Hang on his mind is still a bit sleep muddled. But... doppelganger, there... fires..
And then he remembers. The threats all those months ago. Of course he hadn't forgotten, of course he planned on going through with it. There's a loud thud as Tony stumbles out of bed, hits the floor, and scrambles to get up.]
Fuck! Nux is in danger, you're all in danger. You need to get out of there!
I'm in the storm shelter, Lazarus is trying to find Misa, and I don't know where anyone else is. [The longer he speaks, the faster he speaks; he isn't tripping over his words by the end, but he's close to it.]
[More fumbling sounds until he's hit speaker and set the phone on a nearby desk to continue the conversation while he sorts out the clothing situation. No sense running into battle in his underpants, dire as the situation is.]
Nux pissed him off, challenged him to a fight. I told him to shut the hell up.
[Fat load of good it did. Okay okay shoes where are the shoes?]
Son of a-. She won't stick around in a burning house at least. You're safe?
[... He did what? Nathan should probably be angry. Maybe he will be later, assuming there is one. But right now, his only concern is to see everyone safe.]
Your double has not seen me and the storm shelter is nearly impossible to find if one doesn't know where to look. I am not the one in danger here.
[Everyone else is. That honestly is not any better.]
[Nathan is a threat to approximately no one and he knows it. Which is one of the reasons why he does not do such foolish things as challenge psychopaths to fights.]
Thank you. Just hurry. Please. [The words sound a little calmer now, but anyone who knows how Nathan typically reacts to terror would not necessarily find it such a good thing. It doesn't mean he's feeling better. It means he is shutting off in order to cope.]

Nngh, huh? Nathan? What's up?

I'm on my way. Just hold tight, alright?
