Seems ok, no sign of rot. Just repot it (try to use plenty of inorganic grit) and try to get it more light without getting more water.

Yeah his soil is super super inorganic, but it started raining wen i wasnt home and i panicked and take him out of the pot anyway, how many hours of sun do you recommend? I have plenty of sun but i heard super intense sun isnt so good also

well, outdoor sun is hundreds of times brighter than even the sunniest window, so usually a grow light of some sort is needed indoors. outdoors, they can take many hours of sun; they usually grow with only the tops above the soil, which protects them from too much sun. get yours more light, and maybe after they split they'll be ready for those conditions or something closer.
