Rigid Cotton Wool Restraint

A thick wad of stiffened cotton wool, bound tightly around both Klout and Brock’s limbs to secure them after their sabotage plot was exposed. Pangol or another Foamasi agent packs the material firmly against their wrists and ankles, ensuring no escape despite the prisoners’ struggles. The fibers resist bending, holding shape like improvised manacles that dig into tender skin with each motion.
