Us youths call that 'edging', I think. [ he is conceptually familiar, if that's what noa is getting at.
anyways, if kaiser was trying to play it cool with that response, it isn't very effective because the maneuver noa pulls on him is crazy effective on him. maybe it's a combination of kaiser having sharp senses along with being so unfamiliar with gentleness and not thinking to expect it in this scenario, but kaiser was fairly certain that he isn't so much as ticklish before this moment — nevertheless, the touch has kaiser twitching from his leg all the way up to his shoulders because, unfortunately, it feels really good. he looks a little freaked out about it too, like. what the hell is this! he has quite literally never felt something like that before and he can't hide his shock over it.
kaiser is not risking speaking and having his voice come out weird after that. he simply acquiesces and unfurls his leg as steadily as he can, pretending like that didn't just happen. if he doesn't acknowledge it, then maybe it's not real. ]
