...girl walk into a bar. They end up talking about a suicide prevention program on college campuses that uses chalk drawings of famous inspiring people in history and inspiring anecdotes about the inspiring people. Then they fall in love, and produce a half dozen magical mathematics-performing children. They grow old together, mourning the son who fell from the sky in a flaming spitfire, celebrating the daughter who proved the existence of 14 dimensions. They do not speak of the atomic bomb.

They die of natural causes at old age.
