I wonder if Lev would end up knowing the local Sign, since they obviously don't know ESL and i think the Sign language they do know is of a unique lineage (since it arose in a population with high rates of congenital hearing issues before someone started setting up schools aimed at educating d/Deaf children, rather than as in the given world) ... but yeah, I think afterwards Lev and Chris could likely communicate in Sign to some extent, and if need be we'll handwave the details as to what sign language they're actually speaking.
