The voiceless part I understand to mean that Bruno is "shocked and stunned and not a little bit amazed" [1] at Steven's masterstroke which came out of the blue and trumped all previous efforts -- a true "deus ex machina", a thunderbolt from Olympus -- or if you want a one-word colloquialism, he's gobsmacked. The -ly'rs part means that in his shocked state he has tried to emulate the timbot's characteristic sign-off [2], but failed to get the syntax correct.
