On 1 Aug., Zendaya wrote a heartwarming tribute to her "Euphoria" costar on Instagram that reads: "Words are not enough to describe the infinite beauty that is Angus (Conor). I'm so grateful I got the chance to know him in this life, to call him a brother, to see his warm kind eyes and bright smile, or hear his infectious cackle of a laugh (I'm smiling now just thinking of it) I know people use this expression often when talking about folks they love…'they could light up any room they entered' but boy let me tell you, he was the best at it. I'd like to remember him that way. For all of the boundless light, love and joy he always managed to give us. I'll cherish every moment. My heart is with his mother and family at this time and please be kind and patient as grief looks different for everyone."

Schafer shared an emotional tribute to Cloud on Instagram on 2 Aug. "been trying to figure out what to say, but idk if any combination of words can articulate all of the big feelings," she wrote. "for now i just wanna say: Angus was a sunshine. to have known his warmth, his light, and his love was nothing short of a gift. i'm so grateful to have shared so many enormous fits of laughter, so many sweet moments, and the joy of getting to make something together that we loved so much. i love you angus 💗 thank you for everything. my heart goes out to his family and all of his loved ones right now."

The "Euphoria" star paid tribute to Cloud on Instagram on 1 Aug. by sharing a photo gallery of their sweet pictures together. She wrote in a caption, "Angus you were an open soul, with the kindest heart, and you filled every room with laughter. This is the hardest thing ive ever had to post, and im struggling to find all the words. You will be missed more than you know, but I'm so blessed to have known you in this lifetime, and I'm sure everyone who has ever met you feels the same. This heartache is real and I wish we could've had one more hug and 711 run. All my love is with you.🖤"

The "Euphoria" star posted a photo series of Cloud on Instagram on 2 Aug. and captioned it, "Angus was the funniest person ever. I would get so excited to see on the schedule that we would be working together because I knew we'd have the best day, laughing so hard. He was the sweetest and made everyone around him so happy. He was just the best. Words can't really capture how magical of a person he was. My heart is broken."

She added, "Angus, getting to know and work with you was one of the greatest joys and blessings of my life. I will love you forever. ❤️"

The "Euphoria" actor and singer addressed his costar's death during his Houston concert on 2 Aug. Per a TikTok video posted by a fan, Fike told the crowd, "I guess I lost a friend of mine recently. He died the other night, which is wild to say because I don't deal with grief often. I haven't had a lot of death happen around me, and this was the first time I feel like I knew the person well enough to cry over and feel something. It was weird."

He continued of Cloud, "I sometimes look at people like sparks. I zoom out, and I think people have wavelengths. If you zoom out far enough, you see some people — probably not a lot of us at all — but I think if you zoomed out millions of miles, you would see this kid's spark. You could see it from so far away, even if it was a short flash. He would light up a room, any room he walked in. He's a f*cking good dude. I felt stupid coming out here. Like, this is so stupid, doing a show and being happy. But he would've wanted me to do that. He would've been like, 'No, do the show, have fun.'"

In a statement obtained by Deadline, the "Euphoria" creator said, "There was no one quite like Angus. He was too special, too talented, and way too young to leave us so soon. He also struggled, like many of us, with addiction and depression. I hope he knew how many hearts he touched. I loved him. I always will. Rest in peace and God Bless his family."

Reid mourned Cloud's death on her Instagram Story on 31 July by sharing a clip of him in "Euphoria", writing, "The tears just won't stop."
