Nah, as a kid. We weren't allowed into the city, but it was the only place to sell stuff, so. My brothers and I would sneak in by stacking up on top of each other.
[ i took a while to decide but here's the memory that plays out because i think danny can relate to family members who have sworn to hunt you down woops ]
[ ah. hmm. the emotional display is uncomfortable to watch, almost voyeuristic. But there are some aspects of it he can't help but be confused by. Or even worried about. ]
...your grandpa wanted you to join the military? But instead you became a pirate?
What'd he end up doing with you? You...didn't look like you were doing so hot.
He was in the marines himself. But that was never gonna be me. [ and. hmmm. well. there is no easy way to say this, but ace is looking away a little ] ... Gramps came to sit besides me on the execution stand. That's what he was doing.
...but I guess he did kind of throw you to those mountain bandits or whatever, so he wasn't exactly winning any family of the year awards to begin with.

How'd you get out of your own execution?
no subject
... He's a marine and I'm a pirate. I knew what I was getting into when I chose this.
[ anyway, he looks aside at danny's question of how he got out of his own execution. like he is debating something with himself.
in the end he just admits; ]
I didn't.
