flayn too good for the world that kasaneena had to take her out

Honestly despite the shadiness Flayn had pretty overwhelmingly positive feelings about Shinobu right up until the RECORD SCRATCH moment.

Even taking that into account, though, her feelings aren't really negative either. They're mostly mixed. She's completely sure that Shinobu lied, but she thinks she can understand the reason why she did so - to protect someone she loves. It was a noble gesture, and Flayn isn't quite sure she wouldn't have attempted to do something similar if it had been someone important to her under suspicion.

But still, she lied.

And since killing Giyuu ultimately ended up saving them all - which Flayn is honestly really confused about because she was attempting to begin making her peace with being an Island Ghost forever - she can't help but wonder: what if it had ended there? What would have happened if Dimitri had taken Shinobu's life, and Giyuu had been able to overpower Dimitri? What would have happened to Shinobu and all of the other dead then?

There's a lot of what-ifs, and what Flayn hates most of all is that the bloodshed was really necessary. She still doesn't dislike Shinobu at all! But it's definitely awkward. She never wanted anyone to kill for her sake, and Shinobu bluffing about being responsible for her death ended in Dimitri having a lot of blood on his hands in the name of revenge. Shinobu suffered, and Giyuu suffered watching it, and Mitsuri suffered watching them both, and Flayn keeps looping back to "Dang, what if I'd spoken up about not feeling well earlier in the week and hadn't died of poison?"

Soooo basically while Shinobu is someone she admires for her strength, looking at her brings on a lot of guilty feelings and I rEALLY HOPE THEY MANAGE TO WORK IT OUT ONCE I CAN GET OFF MY BUTT AND GET TO THREADING AAAAA.
