[He hmms a bit, and waves a hand from side to side in a 'maybe' motion.]
Somewhat. To put it very simply... everything is made out of aether. Individual bits... I don't think can be put under a... what do you call it - microscope. But you can watch the flow of it with special equipment, measure it.
It's a bit like how everyone has a respiratory system - air goes in, it circulates, air goes out. And aether works similarly - you take aether into the body and it's used to help construct it or feed it or whatnot. Then it flows out gradually, or with the use of magic. When we die, aether is released from our bodies and joins the Lifestream, where the aether of our souls is broken down and joins with others to form new souls.
By that explanation, your aether sounds more like my thanergy than atoms, although— forgive me if I've explained this one already— we aren't all equipped to handle thanergy innately. Or... eat it.
[Except for, well, sickos. But he's not going to get into that right now. He sits back, waving the checker idly.]
If it's measurable, it's close enough to atomic structure. But we're getting off topic. Come here and study with us whenever you're able; we'll draw up some charts to do a proper comparison of all this eventually.
[This is not a bit, even if the whole class will likely just be Nara'a and maybe Nico. It's fine, he'll enjoy it.]
Anyway; you don't have to sign up, or anything like that, but Allen's the person to talk to if you want to feel more official. Otherwise you can just start turning up.

[That's fun, right!! Chemistry!!]

[Not right now, because he senses this is a chalkboard and notes kind of lesson.]
And I'd love to study here. Things work so differently... I've been trying to rebuild my frame of reference a bit, but it's a little slow going.
