You decide talking to Delve as you walk would be good. He seems friendly enough, and you don't know much about him yet.
"So... How are you holding up, Delve?"
"I-thoought-I-saiid-already. 71%."
"Oh, no, I just meant... emotionally. I was asking if you wanted to talk or anything."
"They're obsessed with making conversation. You get used to it." Exclusit chimes in.
"Oh! Well-I'm-perfeectly-fine-with-conversation, not-tooo-sure-what-your-problemm-with-itt-is."
Exclusit just mutters something inaudibly. Delve makes a noise that you're pretty sure is a slight chuckle, although it sounds odd since he's not fully adjusted to his voicebox yet.
"Anyway. I'm-aalright, I-guess. It's-a-bit-freeaky-knowing-we're-in-a-giant-horror-gut, but-talking-helps-keep-my-miind-off-it. If-I-staart-freaking-out, you'll-be-the-fiirst-to-know."
"That's good!"
"Well, I-wouldn't-say-it's-goood, but-it's-the-best-I-can-do-in-a-plaace-like-this."
"Yeah..."
The two of you fall silent for a moment before you realize you actually had a question for him.
"Oh! What's the best thing you've found while diving?"
"Oh-I've-uhh, never-actually-been-to-the-ocean."
"Wait, really? Then why, uh..."
"It's-alright, I-get-this-a-lot. My-creator-used-to-live-in Shuffle. They-were-a-Sheala-frame-too, and-they-ran-a-salvage-business. They-would-recover-shipwrecked-boats, and-occasionally-do-a-rescue-here-and-there."
"Oh, that sounds neat!"
"It-was! Problem-is, they-ran-into-some-financial-trouble-and-couldn't-afford-to-keep-the-property. They-were-eventually-evicted-and-had-to-move-heere. I-was-mostly-finished-being-built-at-the-time, and-it-was-easier-and-cheeaper-to-finish-me-the-way-I-was-instead-of-starting-over-froom-scratch. I-was-supposed-to-go-with-theem-when-I-got-older, help-them-ouut-on-jobs."
"Oh. I'm sorry, I didn't realize..."
"It's-okaay. Wash, my-creatoor, was-preetty-broken-up-about-it-for-a-while, but-eventually-he-came-to-terms-with-it. We've-got-a-reasonable-house-out-here-in-Draw, and-wee're-making-things-work-alright."
"I guess that's good. It still sucks to be so far away from what you were built for."
"Well..." Delve trails off.
"What-we're-built-for-doesn't-really-matter-so-much-once-we're-built. You-can-find-a-life-anywhere, I-thiink, even-if-it's-noot-the-one-you'd-originally-intended. I-want-to-see-the-ocean-at-some-poiint, buut-that-doesn't-mean-I'm-not-happy-here. Well, I'm-not-happy-here, inside-a-giant-horror, but-yoou-know-what-I-mean." He makes that noise again. You're sure it's a chuckle now.
"Life-can-pull-you-in-all-sorts-of-directions, and-I-think-finding-happiness-wherever-you-end-up-is-a-valuable-skill-to-have."
"Yeah, that's... Yeah. I suppose you're right."
