"It's not random. It's from soul energy. And there's a little more to it than just tingling." So she didn't completely understand it, and that was just as well, because like hell would Nobunaga explain it!

The fastest, most direct way to get Nobunaga to do something is challenge him. Sort of like telling him not to do it -- he will definitely do it!

He just instantly falls into a waltz, ready to a little forcefully guide her. "For the record," a low, very irritated growl, though he half expects, maybe even hopes, that it will make her laugh. "I may be the only man in all of Japan who cares about such things, in my time, but I have giant white eagle from the court of Austria as a present. I named him Vienna. I know how to waltz. Next you will act like I do not know how to handle horses." The bright side is that insulting him also overrode his usual embarrassment about dancing with others; so intimate (though singing is worse!)

Stepping in exceptionally close, he gives her a dangerous grin again, dropping his voice to her ear only. "I will tell you another thing. I know how to improvise too."

Because Nobunaga was nothing if not constantly trying to challenge humanity's concepts of propriety. To whit: he holds Valdis against him (VERY not traditional for a waltz!) and slips one hand down to her ass. This is the other reason he's not married in his time. It would take an insanely strong will, or time traveler, to deal with him.
