Hawthorne eyes you with feigned suspicion, then shrugs.

"Me and Louis are both doing just fine. Just like I've told each and every raid fireteam that's come up to dutifully ask after my health: I'll probably outlive all of you."

"You should get back to helping Shaxx keep the City's borders clear. I'll be here, keeping an eye on the little people."

Hawthorne pauses, giving you a serious look. "We fought hard to get the City back during the Red War. You know I won't let anything happen to this place."

"And hey, if we make it through this—maybe I'll see you at Marc's sometime for family dinner?"
