big bangs!

Okay so the drafts are both done and I've incorporated a lot of my beta comments on the STBB fic, so the files are going off to the BB folks. Hurrah!

But I need to make up summaries before they go. I hate doing summaries. (Luckily I already chose titles.) So I would love your help! There are separate lines for pairings/characters, so they don't need to go into the summary.

First, startrekbigbang. Here's my first pass at a summary, from an excellent suggestion to base it on the deal memos in Variety.

(A modern-day Hollywood AU.)
Pavel Chekov ("Charlie X") and Gaila ("Bread and Circuses") have joined the cast of small budget drama "That Which Survives," funded by Fleet's indie imprint Academy and supervised by Nyota Uhura.
The debut feature from longtime script doctor Leonard McCoy, former show runner on sitcom "Three to Tango," centers on a college student coping with his father's terminal cancer. Chekov plays the son, Gaila the nurse. The father is yet to be cast.
Also attached are director James T. Kirk and producer Spock, the team behind the blockbuster Bibi Besch spy-girl franchise starring Carol Marcus, the latest of which, "A Taste of Armageddon," opened last month.

Ryan and Simon have been working together on Idol for eight years and dating for almost as long; they've got their London-LA relationship down to a science. They hide in plain sight, they get close friends to pose as girlfriends, and if they combine business and pleasure on a few trips, no one is any the wiser.
But when Simon decides to leave the show, one of them will have to find the courage to do what it takes to keep them together. Luckily they have friends like Ellen and Elton to show them the way out.

Help is welcomed!
