[Crowe enters the diner, looking around for the man he's only spoken with on the phone. He looks around for obvious not!drones, and you certainly fit that description.]
[Spy isn't here about the watch, he's just here to test out his ability to do things one-armed. He'd really like to be here in disguise, but he's saving that until he knows he can function properly beneath the disguise.
And then. Vimes' plate. What. What.
Vimes, have a Frenchman with no right arm looking at you with this face as he passes your table.]
[Dias isn't sure if he's interested or not, but Celes has been giving him a seriously cold shoulder since he lost his fingers, so having a reason to get out of their house is probably just as well. Besides, he is getting sick of girls people being hurt.] ...I'm not promising anything, but I want to hear what you're planning.
[Vimes looks up from his breakfast, taking a moment to finish thoughtfully chewing his bacon before responding] It's simple. I was a cop back in my world, and from what I can see there's a lot out to harm the people who have been taken here. [He looks around at the drones in the diner before continuing] What I am proposing is forming a Neighborhood Watch to help keep the people safe.
I know that much. What I want to know is how you plan on protecting people. I've seen what this town can do - it can change itself in the course of a day, and drag off dozens to be murdered or maimed in a single night. And that's just the town itself; there's plenty of people who are dangerous all on their own.
I want to know how you plan on actually stopping any of it. [Dias' tone is almost confrontational, but judging by the way his eyes are searching Vimes' face, he actually does hope the man has an answer.]
My only plan is to keep the peace...but if it comes down to it, I'd be arresting the people behind this, not killing them, if that's what you're asking.
[Med'an's brought along his staff for the meeting. It's not necessary, but he's planning on sitting near the Post Office afterwards, waiting to see if anyone needs healing. Plus, it makes him look like he means business. Maybe.
He scans the booths for any non-drones around; he himself sticks out rather well with the green skin and the giant mage staff.]
[Vimes only gives him the briefest of glances before returning to his meal. Back home he deals with wizards and trolls on a daily basis. In fact, the LACK of shock may make him stand out]
[[OOC: Discworld Trolls come in many varieties, but all of them large and made of different types of stone]]
[Med'an does look something vaguely like a troll, although he's definitely not made out of stone. XD Med'an looks at him, looks around, looks at him, decides to go for it.]

[Vimes you are offending his French sensibilities. Seriously. He is so offended right now by this affront to good cuisine.]

Nah, if it was slop it would be a bit murkier. THIS is a good breakfast. Gets the heart pumping nice and hard.

It's an uphill battle, but it's worth fighting.
