Is it?  Did Harry strike any kind of bargain when he demanded that Toot's people be freed from
bondage?  Toot knows, and he didn't try to take on the Skinwalker for pizza alone.  Yes, Toot likes
the pizza, but it isn't strictly mercenary..  Eb and LTW understand that, they witnessed Toot take on
the Skinwalker to protect Harry.  Toot says, "for you," not for pizza, but for Harry.

TrueMonk:
No matter how it was before, now Harry saved ALL the pizza. So I think it is safe to say that if they were not his vassals before they are now.

Of course he does not have their eternal loyalty, but if he continues as he has begun he will have their loyalty forever. In practice it is much the same.

Are we sure that the White Christ wasn't a wizard? What he did when he was crucified seems a lot like a Death Curse to me, and that's not counting the spells that he cast to heal the ill, purge demons, etc.

Is there a WOJ to the contrary?

morriswalters:
Armies play for pay.  You may attract them to your banner for any number of reasons but you pay them to make them able to fight.  Toot Toot was made the leader and Harry curried favor from him by flattery and Pizza.  Harry's treatment of the faeries made them sympathetic and willing but they aren't bound. At least I don't think they are.

TrueMonk:
But with this line of argument Macones trouble shooters are not really his either. I am pretty sure they won't keep working for him 8f he stops paying them.
