No, man, it doesn't shock you. That'd be fucked up.
[ Cisco can tell that Shigeru means it, that he genuinely expected the cuffs might do something like that. And that gives Cisco serious pause. He sets down his coffee, giving Shigeru a serious and worried look. His nervousness fades, replaced by a more urgent feeling or worry. Cisco waits until Shigeru meets his gaze and then says, quietly: ]
Shigeru, I would never make something for you like that. I mean, no matter what. I know... I know I'm acting all... but you're my friend, okay? This is not- I'm not trying to punish you. And I'm not gonna make anything that would hurt you.
[ If Shigeru is worried that the cuffs might do something like that, Cisco's not going to wait to tell him the rest. ]
If it goes into lockdown mode, which should only happen if it detects you losing control, there's some other stuff that'll happen, but it's nothing like that. You won't be able to switch them off like normal, until I input a particular code into my phone and it transmits an 'all clear' frequency. Once lockdown gets activated it'll automatically send out a ping to my phone, with the time it got set off and your location. But that's only so I can make sure- make sure you don't hurt anybody if you manage to break out of it, and even if not, make sure you're okay, and figure out what happened to make you go all limit break. Okay?
[ He'd tried to balance those emergency features, to guarantee his own safety, and avert any crises as quickly as possible, but not to harm or humiliate Shigeru, when he will probably already be hurting. ]
Does it hurt? I know, like, when I have it on, it's kinda low-key annoying, but it shouldn't be outright painful. Try, um. Try using your powers on something.
