Consider: Yondu is lurking on some distant planet, waiting for news of a job, when he sees a woman he recognises. She’s sweet and innocent looking, downright motherly, but last time he saw her she was dragging him, and children like him, out of cages and selling them on to new masters. You don’t forget the face of someone who did that to you.
So he roughly calls Peter over and tells him to stand guard, and hands him the best gun they’ve got just in case any trouble starts. Then he goes after the woman and kills her. She knows her past has caught up with her, but she still pleads for her life.
“Please don’t kill me.” she begs. “I’ve got a child!”
Yondu sends his arrow straight through her heart. “So’ve I.”
So uh, minor detail in the first gotg
Yondu calls Peter and mentions how he “slaves away” for Peter and Peter responds by mocking his use of the word “slave” as if he thinks Yondu doesn’t know what it means
Oh boy…
After watching GotG2 I always wondered about that! To be fairly honest, considering that Yondu was an ACTUAL slave at one point, to say he “slaved” putting a deal together was, perhaps, bad word choice and, in a way, Quill’s reaction was KINDA justified.
But, Quill doesn’t know that Yondu was a slave once and, yeah he mocks it. It’s like Yondu’s past is never brought up anymore by ANYONE. No-one who’s around these days even knows. But Yondu hasn’t moved on from it so he brings in the word “slave” in, honestly, inappropriate situations, looking for ANY kind of sympathy for it that he can.
This is making more sense in my head. I hope I’m getting my meaning across here.
