UnGames:Make it to Ketchikan/CreatureTalk

You approach the creature, which startles you by speaking in English. And you recognize his voice. This is Dave, a guy who you knew in the overworld, a guy that you may or may not have been a little gay for.
He's not a seal. Dave is in just as much shock as you are. Despite you being a seal, he recognizes you instantly from your attitude, smell and attire.
DAVE: "JOHN?! What the fuck? John, YOU ended up here too?! I mean, after all, there are so many potential one-in-a-million coincidences out there, that chances are, one or two of them will happen to you."
YOU: "Yeah, it's a small world. Even though we're not even in that small world right now," you reply.
DAVE: "Yeah, I snuck around Mr. Glargh, bro. That fat, lazy fucker. I never knew a word of Sealese. Like, what even is the point of learning it? But I assume you're trying to get to Juneau. I know this cave like the back of my hand."
YOU: "Alright, well I know a LITTLE Sealese. If we run into any seals, I can be your ambassador. Deal, bro?"
DAVE: "Deal."
