Me and Yondu broke out! Everybody says it's impossible to break out of Chitauri prison, but that's just 'cause they didn't have human ingenuity and a really pissed off Centaurian.
[ Because, uh, Chitaui prison is forever, Peter. You don't leave in one piece, normally. Though Quill won't add that part, Peter doesn't need to know just how scary it was. ]
But nope, I never met him. I even tried visiting Spartax a couple years later, and dear old dad didn't have "time" to see me, so they turned me away. So much for J'son of Spartax! Worst. Dad. Ever.
[ He pauses. ]
Uh, okay, Thanos is worse. But my dad's pretty high up there.
Nah, the Chitauri all got busted by Nova for siding with Thanos during the War. I had a couple of outstanding priors before, but they exonerated me after I helped stop the Promise.
[ He waves a hand like any of that made sense. I mean, it made sense to Peter, but you know. ]
Least my dad didn't start a galactic war. Low bar, though. 's why I can't ever win an argument with Gamora, she pulls out the Thanos card and all of sudden I'm handing over my last pancake 'cause she said something said. I always fall for it!
(he's learning that he can definitely dissect what quill is saying for the core message - chitauri sucked, thanos sucks, quill good dad.)
Wow, like, 'my dad is Thanos, give me the pancake'? Because, like, that's a great argument. I'd make her more pancakes. I'll make you some too, because I mean, sounds like you too deserve some.

(he wonders, but also, this feels more like a criminal prison than a state-issued prison. are the states in space? confusion.)
I mean, both seem pretty bad, dude.
