Not on what most people would consider working. Working on something deeper, something just he can feel and see. He's been working on trying to understand the way this place works, trying to get a feel for the difference in the world around him, the 'ground' under his feet... all of it.
And unfortunately for him, well, he happens to be part of a family who can get absorbed in things for literal centuries without interruption. Or maybe 'fortunately'. He's missed some crazy %h!t.
For the moment, though, he's finally rejoined the rest of the folks on board and he's wandering around the party a little. He spends a decent amount in the bar obviously, but the card games call him for a moment even if Silk had been very clear he wasn't to play any of them if he wanted to make friends. The arm wrestling gets a glance but he's never been the type to enjoy competition without a point so he just observes and moves on.
He actually spends a decent amount of time in the library listening to the poetry readings. It reminds him of listening to his grandfather when he was younger, and of listening to various bards and storytellers who've visited the Citadel over the years. At least here, he doesn't have to worry about people getting details of his own exploits completely wrong to a worrying degree.
Twister just has him baffled, but he'll spend a decent time there trying to figure it out.
The hanger however, is where he's going to end up and he might be interested in getting into the ring if anyone's up for it. He's an Alorn, after all. If there isn't drink, song, and fistfights, he's doing it wrong.
