I'm fairly certain the noises are just him screaming from the terror and pain of being corrupted. However, there are cut voice lines for him where he tells you that stuff.

As for OP, that is most definitely what is happening. Either the Abyss only corrupts him for periods of time, or you actually run into him right as he falls to the Abyss.
