* The premise of the book is that this starship's crew is trapped in a CosmicHorrorStory: The laws of physics seem to warp themselves around the ship leading to nonsensical situations where lower-ranking crew members are obligated to die whether it makes any sense to or not. At first it seems like something the command staff is doing, but they seem to be utterly unaware that anything is going on. If anything, they seem to be weirded out as well but unable to actually latch onto there being a problem. What's worse, whatever is causing this will even supersede their own free will and make them do things that make no sense to them (and seems to be doing the same to their commanders). Eventually they figure out the reason: [[spoiler: They're all fictional characters subjected to the will of a lackluster writer.]]

The only defense (and ''that's'' not even reliable) is to hide from the bridge crew and remain BeneathNotice.
