[ Their house is as ridiculous and luxurious as you would expect it to be if you've crossed paths with Subete at some point, which also means that it comes equipped with an alarm system naturally. Both standard and magical variety. And although Gil hasn't intruded inside the house proper (just inside the genkan), he's certainly inside their grounds, so same thing almost.
The standard alarm is what alerts Hikage first, though it's not overly blaring or unpleasant, just a distinct tone that repeats in a rhythm. He's passingly familiar with it at least because in the early days of their robot invasion, one occasionally set it off now and again. Still, he wasn't expecting it so he definitely tumbled off the couch he had just settled on, making a beeline for the control panel with accompanying video feed, not even hearing his phone go off.
Who could even-
...perhaps he should have expected this. ]
