== Analysis ==
* Due to ROBLOX's strict crackdown on mentions of drugs, something Dracula Flow would be a global terrorist in relation to, much of it is "sanitized" for the platform. Mentions of smoking are replaced with "finding" and drugs are often substituted for candies that Flandre would presumably enjoy.
=== Individual Lines ===
"Painting the world red so much I trademarked a new shade, I'll be getting royalties like I'm Tiff Blue.".Tiff(any) Blue is a trademarked shade of robin egg blue, registered as such by the Tiffany & Co. luxury jewelry company. "Painting the world red" is a reference to a passage found in a book in the level 7-1 "GARDEN OF FORKING PATHS" from ULTRAKILL."Gulping brine-shrimp by the gallon, my tummy feel crazy.",The original line references Sea-Monkeys, which are the brine shrimp in question. Most likely a reference to the "shrimp fry" meme associated with Koishi herself."So much syrup on the waffles, I feel like I'm Leopold relishing another bloodbath in the Belgian Congo.",In a disturbing turn for these otherwise humorous voicelines, Flandrishi is alluding to the myriad of atrocities committed in the Belgian Congo between 1885 to 1908. Presumably, she's implying Leopold regularly bathed in the blood of the people he slaughtered for things such as resources and labor."Opps wanted to play favorites, I gave them an ice bath in Cocytus.",Cocytus is the lake of ice that Satan bathes in, located in the ninth circle of Hell according to the Divine Comedy."Broken clocks strike twice? Buddy, that watch sank with the Titanic!",This may be a reference to this instance of a scavenged pocket watch from the remains of the Titanic, which stopped at 2:28 (eight minutes after the Titanic had sank.) Flandrishi is also alluding to the phrase "a broken clock is correct twice", a statement which basically claims that even liars will have merit once in a while."I was liftin' bricks for Count Drac before y'all even became an industrial society.",Count Drac is likely referring to Vlad the Impaler, the original namesake for Dracula the character. Of course, Vlad lived about 400 years before the Industrial Revolution."Opps was sneaking my candy bar, turned a whole city into New Pompeii.", "Opps was sneaking my candy bar, now they're looking for another route to India.",Both of these lines imply that Flandrishi has committed extremely destructive acts against entire civilizations for menial reasons; "New Pompeii" obviously alludes to the ash-bath that the real city of Pompeii faced when Mount Vesuvius erupted, whilst "another route to India" implies that Flandrishi has either destroyed the entirety of North and South America or has somehow sealed off the Suez Canal. Both after losing candy bars."I have the blueprints to the CATACOMBS!",Probably refers to the Paris Catacombs or the more-closer Odesa catacombs (as Flandrishi mentions Transylvania in a line). Potentially, they may reference the Seminar Caves sub-area from FTK1."She looked like a Stage 1 boss when we were done with her.",Stage 1 bosses often receive the runt of the litter in terms of power in mainline Touhou games; compare, say, Wriggle Nightbug, to people like Kaguya Houraisan or Keine Haniyasushin. As the Stage 1 bosses often are meant to be easy by nature, it's presumed that this line implies Flandrishi regularly curb-stomps people with her immense power for amusement."I have no loyalty for ANYONE. Never did, never will!",This statement is ironic as Flandrishi implies a positive relationship with her Remilia variant several times."Opps wanted to scorch the earth, I froze Hell over.",Flandrishi quotes two statements intended to contrast each other thematically: "scorch the earth" is referring to scorched earth, a military tactic in which the goal is to destroy or devalue anything in an ascertainly-falling location to an enemy; and "froze Hell over" refers to the saying "freezing Hell over", essentially a hyperbole saying something is impossible (think the term "when pigs fly"). 
If this statement is to be taken as-is, then it implies that Flandrishi regularly responds to aggressive acts with something tenfold it's destructive results."Agent chose to find a vampire? Sounds like his problem, not me.",There is a theory in Touhou lore that implies that Sakuya Izayoi, the current maid of the SDM, was actually a hunter that tried and failed to kill the Scarlet twins; and had to swear loyalty to them as a punishment. It is therefore possible to infer Flandrishi is suggesting history will repeat if the player tries to go after her."Opps wanted to hit on Sakuya, I gave them the Southern London Alleyway Special.",A reference to how knives are to the UK what guns are to the US. Southern London Alleyway is invoked specifically to try and create imagery of Jack the Ripper, even though Jack's activity was concentrated on the East End of London."Moving like Remilia, we getting back in blood.",While this is obviously a pun on the fact both Flandrishi and Remilia are vampires, "Back in Blood" is a song by the artist Pooh Shiesty."Opps messed with me. Blew up their entire quadrant.",Flandre can canonically do this.
"Get Reimu outta here, she's built like a Hellcat V8.",One can argue this is a very abstract backhanded compliment: Hellcats are an incredibly coveted aspect of the Dodge Challenger, and many gun for them for both the value they show off and the speed that they yield.
In short, Flandrishi is telling Reimu she is luxurious looking and covetable... but she should also should probably run away, lest she incur scarlet wrath."I've got more teddy bears than there are stars in the known universe.",It is estimated that there are one septillion stars maximum in the observable universe, which encompasses anywhere between 46 billionLineweaver, Charles; Davis, Tamara M. (2005). "Misconceptions about the Big Bang". Scientific American. 292 (3): 36–45. to 93 billionhttps://www.wolframalpha.com/input?i=size+of+universe lightyears in diameter. Therefore, this implies one of two things:
* Flandrishi has an octillion or more teddy bears somehow in storage, as that is the number hierarchically higher than septillion;
* or, Flandrishi simply has access to a pocket dimension roughly the same size as the known universe full of teddy bears."My KC pile so massive it's an underground sun.",This is a reference to Utsuho Reiuji, who's primary job at the Palace of the Earth Spirits is to regulate Hell's underground sun/nuclear fusion reactor. It is therefore hinted that Flandrishi's pile of this worthless currency is vibrant and golden enough & in plentiful numbers enough to be comparable to the Sun itself, or that the pile is the size of the Sun (864,000 miles / 1,319,000 kilometers).
