Get drupal breadcrumb by providing nid? How can I get a breadcrumb path by providing $nid?

Example

$nid = 116;
$breadcrumb = breadcrumb_get_crumb($nid);


I have a node type that is always associated with another node, and I want to use that node's breadcrumb trail for this node too.
You could use Crumbs module.
Now, if you say these nodes are "associated", I wonder how exactly? With an Entity reference field? Or just that you know the parent? Is this for all nodes of this type, or just for this specific one? Are these nodes somewhere in a menu?

If you can arrange either of the criteria above, you can use existing Crumbs plugins. Otherwise, you could do a custom module..
