[ Family isn't anything positive for Snake, that's for sure. He and Liquid may be twins, but it's on the genetic level alone. There's no love lost between them, and all of their interactions before the Moira had involved trying to kill each other.
It's no surprise that Mantis is curious, but when Snake feels that more insistent picking at his brain, he immediately closes himself off. FOXHOUND had given him some training in how to resist mental manipulation, and while Mantis had managed to press past it during their encounter, he's much younger here. Maybe Snake can withstand it this time.
As more foreign voices filter through Snake's head, he has to take the words (Russian, of course) and translate. ]
The Third Child. [ He echoes the term, then narrows his eyes at the lenses of the gas mask. ] Third of what?
