True alignment

You know what, I'm happy Ethan is in a place where he can afford to pay people back
- Also amazing that he kept track of his debts over all this years!
  
  Honestly, he probably just forgot and found a random slip of paper with a note on it while moving or something.

Lawful good would have taken inflation into account and paid $8.91
- Depends - LG might have paid $7 because future inflation wasn't part of the terms of the loan (and is not normally).
  
  That sounds like either LN or LW (Lawful Wangrod)
- Chaotic good might even be something more like breaking into your bank and erasing part of your debt by way of repayment.

I have my friend a cell phone when he was struggling.
He insisted he paid me back when he gets back on his feet.
He died before he paid me back. I like to believe that this would be him if he was still with us. 🥺

I know a guy who is the opposite of this in a way. I, as a joke, decided to remind him that he owed me $7 for pizza that he never paid me for back when he was part of one of my DnD groups. He got mad, insisted that he already paid it, and then blocked me and started telling coworkers that I was trying to steal from him. (We used to work together, no one believes him but he keeps trying to tell people that, but only to people who knew me for some reason which is how I know.)
- Oh no, you're trying to steal $7!
- Overreaction of the century right there.
  
  He still hasn't gotten over being kicked from the group because he made the other players uncomfortable, one of whom still works with him, and he blames me because I wasn't willing to kick the rest of the group instead. (Yes, he actually suggested kicking every other player and just finding new ones who would, and I quote, "agree with me more")
