* In the Fallout games at least insects and animals survive, as well as some plant life and microscopic organisms. It's an outdated view of what a nuclear apocalypse would be like but it at least shows that there would still be some animal life. The Stitchpunks' world likely has some elements left, since there needs to be oxygen for all the fires and explosions that happened, but no living things at all. Life will have to start all over from a primordial state before Earth gets back to having any sort of evolution lines or animal kingdom.

* The Seamstress. A giant snake with a porcelain doll's head that grafts the dead body of 2 onto her tail and uses it to hypnotize 8 into submission, before sewing him inside her body and dragging 7 away. She boasts numerous appendages just designed for chopping up and sewing up innocent stitchpunk skin. Also, to silence 8, she sews his mouth shut. Yeah...

** One send Two out into the Wasteland on purpose. He said it was for the good of the rest of the Stitchpunks, but may have felt regret. He at least felt understandable fear when he saw Two's body weaving towards him. For a moment One might have thought that Two had come back as a ghost or zombie to haunt him. Then after he's saved from the Seamstress he wakes up to see Two's eyes, now forever dilated, staring right into his.
** Poor Eight was sewn up and taken to the fabrication machine, then had a few moments of panic and horror before his soul was taken out. He was a thug for One but still had the innocence most of the other Stitchpunks have (or had).

It's sad to think they're still around, possibly originally used to warn people to get to safety but now just trying to seek out whatever life they can.
