[ Bean had been about to counter Poe's argument with a, "Well, it's something to keep in mind as a last case scenario," until that "again." That, coupled with the "deaths," plural, really cements to Bean that Poe has been through more here than he can really ever know. It was enough to spur him to create Base One. Sure, Bean and Finn had jumped straight into the idea of a secret base, but they shared that paranoid, military-kid background, and the mindset that goes along with it.
What could lead to a mindset like Poe's, but innumerable suffering?
When Bean speaks again, it's softer, kinder. Like he's talking to someone he cherishes, and somewhat pities, and wants to hide from the cold, harsh truth. Someone like Nikolai, or Sister Carlotta. ]
Fine. It won't take us long to get to the spot where I found him wandering. He said he was trying to retrace his steps, so whatever happened shouldn't be too far from there.
