[ The mention of pain earns a spike of concern. Barry's had issues with his abilities, but they've never hurt him — they're predictable, something he can control. The idea of having that taken away isn't a nice one. ]
have you tried using barriers? gloves?
[ Sounds a bit weird, but they deal with full body leather on the daily. He doubts Cisco will care. ]
no, i haven't. i guess i probably should. at least maybe that'll tell me if it's a skin contact thing or if that doesn't matter. not really sure at the moment.
[ The idea of going around in gloves all the time, of not being able to just touch another person casually without worrying about his powers...it's so damn depressing. ]
anyway look, don't worry about it. i got it under control.
[ Except Cisco really doesn't have it under control. He wouldn't have mentioned it if he did, but Barry's not going to push it when the signals are saying back off. ]
not gonna stop worrying, but i will shut up about it. if you want some company to run some more tests now that we've got the lab, hit me up.
