[ There's no denying that Miller had expressed a special interest in him that he didn't extend to the rest of FOXHOUND. Of course, Snake realizes the reasoning for that now, given his parentage and everything the Patriots had planned for him. As much as he tries not to think of it that way, he has to accept that Miller's initial interest in him had everything to do with Big Boss.
That obviously shifted, both in Snake's past and in the current moment, and Snake doesn't doubt that when Miller asks after him, it's genuine. They're in this together.
It doesn't surprise him that Miller has the sort of knowledge necessary to help them last through this lack of a steady food supply, and while he nods along, he doesn't sound entirely convinced. ]
Sure, but... we also probably need someone in charge making sure that everyone's only eating their fair share, and I doubt anyone wants to take on that job. [ Maybe it's not that dire yet, but depending on what they find at the end of this long hike, they could reach that point. And Snake can already guess that it could get really ugly really fast. ]
