Excuse the old guy, Nilin. Bucky can't suppress a shudder at the sight of the implant. The closest he's gotten to seeing anything like that back home were some of Zola's plans he's caught sight of during the Commandos' attacks on Hydra, and those are really not among his fondest memories.
He forces himself past the reaction, however, only commenting, quietly, "from what I understand," thanks to Natasha's teaching, again, "what's happening now with the consoles suggests something like that ... you should be careful, right? 'cause of what," his eyes flick to Annabeth, "Mally can do." It's not an 'I'm suspicious of you now' reaction. More like bringing it out in the open, for all of their sake.
And also a small thank-you, for letting them know.
It took him a moment to realize that he has nothing to contribute to the discussion - not useful, anyway - without some mulling over. So he turns to action, next. Where a moment ago he was almost hesitant, now he reached to take one of the pendants. Not because Annabeth vouched for them, really, but because the sooner they knew, the better.

"What does it take to make 'em work?"
