In that moment of pure tension, when a thousand thoughts were running through Lily's head, Graffiti tossed a spray can at the man despite his warning before she managed to escape from the rooftops. Lily wanted to disappear with her, but the fact that the goon had fired at Graffiti, and surprisingly failed to strike her in the process, was enough to prevent Lily from making a move she would indeed regret. Instead of running to safety, Lily slowly picked up the handcuffs, although she didn't lock them around her wrists as he had originally requested.

"Listen, there's no need for you to be shooting that gun anymore, alright? You and I have a common enemy now: Red Claw. I'll play along, pretend to be your hostage, and then when he's drawn in, you two can work it out amongst yourselves. It's a win-win, don't you think?"

Lily took a step forward and offered him back his handcuffs, hoping that he would change his mind about actually taking her hostage. Not that she was worried about that as she would eventually find a way to escape, but Lily really wanted to get home to get some rest and put this awful night behind her.
