ecstaticTHERE WILL BE SPOILERS.
Seriously. If anyone comments here at all, THERE WILL BE SPOILERS. So please don't read and then yell at me because you encountered spoilers. You were warned. (I will not reply to every comment; I call partial comment amnesty. But I may well join some of the discussion, or answer questions or whatnot.) I will be DELETING all comments containing spoilers which have been left on other posts. No one gets to spoil people here without a label.
You can also start a discussion at my website forums, with less need to be concerned that I will see everything you say! In case you wanted, you know, discussion free of authorial influence, since I always wind up getting involved in these things.
Have fun, and try not to bleed on the carpet.

In Chimes at Midnight, Toby owed a favor to the night haunts.
However, in Once Broken Faith Toby mentions that she did the favor..
Did I miss something or is Seanan McGuire going to give us a short story about that?

As a bonus, she also helped a bunch of changelings in Silences.

The Night Haunts never specifically ask Toby to fix the problem. Eigil (the one who currently wears Devin's face) tells her to fix it, yes, but never says anything that would indicate that it would be a formal request.
Toby actually makes the deal to save Tyablt after this interaction. So yes, she still owes the Night Haunts a favor.
I think Toby used the situation to her advantage. No the Night Haunts never specifically asked, but it was something that they told her to do (even though she was going to do it anyway). She just made it seem that she interpreted it as a request ans voila! A debt that they need settled! Not exactly fair, but hey Faery isn't fair.
