I consider Ace my little brother too, eh? We have the same father after all.
I just wish he were here. He'd get a real kick out of it. The jungle sounds like the island he grew up on, and inside here, he'd be the only one really enjoying all this heat so much.
It's been a long time since I saw him.
[He's tempted to explain about the Garden. That Marco could almost follow alternate timelines like flaming threads across time and space, and then it was just a matter of grabbing and pulling to the right place. Or even mentioning the alternate timeline where Ace was a marine... as crazy as that still is to Marco. But he doesn't want to get Luffy's hopes up when there's not much he can do about it right now. Especially not after the last few times.]
He must have been glad to see his little brother though, eh? When you met him? [Marco could probably talk about Ace for days. For all his talk that Ace spoke too much of Luffy? It was almost more like Ace was just trying to keep up with Marco's "best family ever" 24/7 chatter.]
[Which is why he's trying to prompt for more information about when Zoro saw him, however briefly.]
