C12H23 and a side of sulfur

"Carbon monoxide is a molecular bond. It consists of one carbon molecule, and two oxygen molecules."

"You idiot, the bond is not molecular but ionic."

I felt my lips quiver as I rubbed my face. These two were both idiots. I smacked the back of Quincy and Tariq's' heads. They pouted as I sighed and said.

"The bonds between carbon and oxygen are covalent you dumbasses. Only covalent bonds occur between two gaseous elements. Ionic bonds are between a natural element and a gaseous one, while molecular bonds happen between any two elements. How the hell do I have two idiots such as yourselves on my team?"

Quincy and Tariq then bowed over and over as they said.

"Please don't forsake us Miss Astrid. We are not complete idiots."

I laughed out loud. I love the honesty. I then patted their heads as they slightly blushed.

"I will never "forsake" you guys even if you are complete idiots. Even idiots have their use after all."

Tariq and Quincy sniffled.
