What does "FLARE AROUND" mean in this sentence?
She's playing a game with you,and you're playing with her.
First of all we have tolook at your behavior, okay?
If I flare around my arm, and go like this...she's getting into prey mode.

I think it means to "flail"
Flailing is mainly used to describe the movement of arms of legs when they are moving in quick way with little control.
So basically they are flopping their arms around

This is the dictionary definition of this word:
flare
fler/
noun
1.
a sudden brief burst of bright flame or light.
"the flare of the match lit up his face"
synonyms: blaze, flash, dazzle, burst, flicker
"the flare of the match"
2.
a gradual widening, especially of a skirt or pants.
"as you knit, add a flare or curve a hem"
verb
1.
burn with a sudden intensity.

2.

But in some examples I saw it used in a simular fashion to "flail"
In the example you gave I like to imagine it like how fire moves. its rapid random movements with a snap to them.
I hope this helps,
