Initial Text
A student with a mohawk motions you over to a strangely familiar sight: a dozen or so people drinking and keeping the chill away with the help of a barrel full of burning garbage. Apparently, they decided that was the appropriate lighting scheme for their Halloween party.
You notice a few workers along with the punks. They're all passing around beers, basically all Metros.

Choice Text and Results
Stay and chat
You chat with everyone around the burn barrel. The alcohol has certainly loosened everyone's tongues.
The punks seem quite happy with how their party turned out, even if there are still some insane drones and, in their opinion, equally insane Midgard Security wandering around.
The workers are drinking to the deaths of several colleagues, but are glad that the work is wrapping up.
You've earned 4 XP in Will
Collect some beer
You manage to collect a few bottles of beer, but they mostly seem to be hoarding the good stuff for themselves. Which, you suppose, is probably fair.
You found: 3 bottles of Metros Light
Pass a Metros Light
You pass around a bottle of Metros Light and end up with a bottle of Metros coming back around to you. It doesn't occur to you until a while later that the bottle you got back is both full and has a different color label.
You found: Metros Special
Pass a Metros Special
When you pull out your Metros Special, one of the punks whoops and offers you a bottle of some weird microbrew for it. Well, it probably can't be worse then Metros.
You found: pumpkin microbrew
Leap to the attack
Several of the students scatter, dragging others, but two are sober enough to stand and drunk enough to fight.

Leave them be
Yeah, you get enough burn barrels in Southside, no reason to screw around with them here.
