Summary
Fic tennis is a game played by "volleying" a story back and forth in pre-set increments (500 words, or 1000 words, or whatever length is agreed upon beforehand). There is no behind-the-scenes discussion of the plot outside of the fic; each writer has to roll with the other's plot and character additions during their volley. It is an improvised story, built by passing a single document back and forth, and it's hella fun.

“J-Joe?” Nicky tries, heart pounding in his ears.
Joe’s shaking his head, scrambling backwards and away, looking over Nicky with a wide, disbelieving gaze.
“No, it can’t be. I watched you die. We burned your body, Nicky- what the fuck is going on?” Joe asks, his voice a quiver that cuts to the quick .
Nicky wishes he had an answer."
One universe's Joe lost his Nicky; in the other, Nicky lost his Joe. Now they've been thrown together, and everything is not okay.

Summary
At over seven-hundred and fifty, he fears he has started to forget what mortality feels like. He sees death everywhere he goes, in all forms. Sometimes it is natural, predicted. Sometimes it is merciful, and sometimes it is violent and cruel. Almost never does it exist in the realm of the unknown.
Where do people go when they vanish? How long must they be gone before others declare them dead?
To vanish as a mortal is to surrender to a death sentence, it seems. People do not vanish. They die.
Where does that leave his family, if they defy death?Or:
In winter, 1832, Nicolas and Sébastien are hired to guard a family of fur traders as they make their voyage to Alaska, when disasters occur and they become lost in the wilderness. Nicolas finds a letter from Yusuf telling of Sébastien's wife's sudden death and he must swear to keep it a secret while he navigates their way back to their family, against the elements and the fragility of the human mind.
