Holy shitballs. I really shouldn't be so tempted to make a sheet for this...
I will watch for now.
I swear this game is one that has lots of people saying they'd like to play but not playing. Its very odd. Oh well
"I'll stay Pianissimo for a while, I think.
Forte is too loud."
Sing a quiet dirge to lure sailors from the shipwrecks around me to shield us from the boxerbots.

You sing a dirge but either you a little off key or there are no shipwrecks around here because no sailors come to your aid.
-2 acclaim.
Apoptosis makes a deep, growling sound.
"Gee, thanks! Now I've gotta deal with these bastards in real time!"

Name: "Apoptosis"

You spin your right arm around and it flows outward like a whip, transforming into a half dozen long, electrical eels. You slam them into one of the bots and they wrap around it before discharging a burst of electricity. It doesn't disable the bot but it does seem to injure it and maybe render it less capable. [boxer bot 1 400/600]
There do appear to be only three combative boxerbots left (unless our first sight of them was mistaken and there were more than six in the room). See spoiler for relevant quotes.
You both open the door out of this car and stand on the platform between the cars, prying open the door to the next car just enough to peek in. There are more robots in there, but they're different from the others. Their bodies are like rounded upside down pyramids, all huge broad shoulders and thin waists with long legs. Their arms aren't the same metal tubes either; they're huge hydraulic things ending in metal fists, with buzzing sawblades protruding from each knuckle. There look to be 6 of them in the next room, standing in a circle around something.
Despite Threnody's continuing terrible run of luck and his smearing blood all over the robot and its circuitry, Apoptosis manages to unscrew the top of the bot's head and get into its robotic brains. He hacks the bot so that it won't attack but the command doesn't propagate to the others. Hmm.
[6] You hack another bot to be non-combative.
[11] You explain what you're doing the entire time you hack the other bot, inserting various witty banter and quotable one liners. Its still not that interesting, but a bit more so now.
5 acclaim!
"You okay, Threnody? You're babbling nonsense. That train sure did a number on your brain, huh? Well, let's get back to the front."
Head back through to the carraige the fencer bot was in. Carefully sidle through the boxerbot room, trying not to disturb anyone.
Pardon me, fellas, just going through. Don't mind me. Just going forward to fight evil and bring justice. You know the drill. Er, never mind about drills. Nope. Haven't seen any drillbots or anything like that at all. I don't know what you're talking about. Eh heh heh heh."
Description: a white mask, with black around the eyeholes and scowly eyebrows.

[3]
You attempt to slip into the boxer bot room and then out again without being noticed. You get about 4 steps in before a boxer bot turns to look at you and you have to dive back into the previous room to prevent yourself from being seen.
"Alright, well that direction seems a bit...dangerous"

"Whelp it seems their nothing I can do to help here than, maybe those boxer robots need being destroyed”
Go to the train car with the boxer bots and Apoptosis, grab one of them and throw them against another boxer robot.
[6]
You run back into the boxer bot room and grab the first boxer bot you see that isn't already under attack from Apoptosis. You wrap one hand around its neck and then grab its lower back before lifting the entire bot above your head. You hold it there a moment before turning to the other boxer and hurling your captive directly into it. They both crunch together like cars colliding and go flying into the far wall [boxer bots 2-3: 100/600 HP]
Boxer bot 1 is stunned for this turn.
Boxer bots 2-3, though damaged, untangle themselves and move back in. Bot 2 attacks Apoptosis[3] with a slicing uppercut. Apoptosis dodges back but still catches part of the blow and four gashes are cut up along the length of his chest [-150 hp]. Bot 3 attacks Tachanka [6], who manages to dodge but in the process shoulder barges Apoptosis back into the train car's rear wall, half embedding him there. Luckily his unique biology makes him immune to damage from the attack, but it does stun him. His electric eel arm melts back into a normal limb.
