[He opens his mouth to ask more, but those zombies are closing in and... there's no time for any of this, is there? Right.
So he'll just reach out and take this stranger's hand. Trying to focus on... on making a contract happen, whatever that even means. And he feels... some kind of warmth. A spark of some kind.
[there it is--Oswald can feel that spark travel all the way up his arm and into his chest, his self--everything that he is--attaching onto this person's magic, binding them together. It's a surge of power like nothing he's ever felt, and there's a smirk that curls the corners of his mouth as he feels it swell inside him.]
That's more like it.
[and he turns to face the second wave, twirling his umbrella before flicking it open]
[It's a strange feeling, inside himself a moment. Almost like a light tug, before it settles and everything feels normal. He just... takes a careful step back, not exactly wanting to be close to any of this.]
Thank you. [great, he's going to dive back into this, this time dispatching them even faster, barely needing a flick of his wrist to send them flying. the immense amount of power that he's getting from this makes it feel almost effortless, and he smirks as he stops--and the zombies collapse to the ground in a heap after hardly ten seconds]
[It's quick. Whoever this is... he's strong, for sure. Edward lets out a breath, before his legs give out and he's dropping to the ground, just catching his breath.
This is all just way too much. One moment he's in the infirmary, the next everything's going to hell and he's in...
That's the spirit. [LISTEN, ANYTHING THAT'LL HELP RIGHT NOW]

It's odd. But not unpleasant.]

Hello? Can you hear me? This is Chaldea Command Room. Do you read me?

Um, y-yes! I read you!

And I... made a contract with a Servant?

Well...I suppose we'll worry about that later. Nevertheless, it's good that you're alive.

Mhm. I'm still a Magus. I'm not going to die this easily.

[He'll steel himself some more, then. If there's a goal... If there's a goal, he can do it. He just has to do it.]
Got it. I can do that.
