4th Wall Event BEGIN!
[The intercom flicks on, and after a few vague shuffling noises, a piping voice begins speaking:]
Greetings, residents of the Thor! The Improbability Drive has been engaged, and...well, it seems this month we've, uh, quite literally crossed paths with one of our sister ships, the S.S. Sif! Drive engineers are working on the calculations to safely disengage us from one another, but until then, don't panic! We're quite stable for the time-being. In fact, if you're interested, the captain of the Sif has extended an invitation to the Thor's residents - please feel free to visit the Sif for the duration of our encounter! Alternatively, we've extended the same invite to the residents of the Sif, so...please be kind to our guests!
That's it for now. We'll keep you updated as the situation progresses.
[Aaaaand the intercom clicks off.]

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy has this to say for the S. S. Sif:
Originally interred into the Fleet three hundred fourteen years ago, S. S. Sif specialized in collecting fine art and rare species the Universes over, in addition to its duty in providing moving residence for the refugees from the simultaneous planet destructions. It now houses the four largest art collections in the known universes, including the Living Art Gallery made famous by Yffrn Jcnntalo in XXXXXX. Most pieces found in this gallery are interactive with their viewers, fun for the children in the lighthearted sectors, more intrusive when venturing toward the dark and seductive.
Thankfully, no actual damage is usually done, given the holographic nature of most the art pieces. There are a few mishaps, recorded for postery's sake and often replayed in pubic for general consumption.
The seventeen zoos are state of the art, usually only allowing escapees during planned hours. Many of the breeding programs here on the S. S. Sif are considered a wild success, helping to preserve non-sentient species across the worlds.
Don't ask about the sentient zoo. (Be wary of any alien with one long body, five fingers on the head, and a giant eye in it's palm. Be very wary.)
Also known for a variety of fine drinking and dining, the S. S. Sif has been producing massive exports of alcohols not found elsewhere in the universe since one IID mishap blessed a young matriarchal household with an uncanny knack for figuring out how to make basically anything drinkable enough that it takes two shots to kill you.
"One shot to live," is a common saying found plastered throughout the S. S. Sif.
The S. S. Sif also has one of the most active racing networks among the fleet, if largely by biological means. Chocabi racing, rainbow lizard charges, and Gnuxpuff sprints can be seen in the recreation levels daily. Betting is a favored pasttime of many citizens of the S. S. Sif
The 4th-Wall Event begins now and will end late-ish on Saturday, April 30th.
