Absorbed, aim (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

intent

This clue is a double definition.

'absorbed' is the first definition.
('intent' can be a synonym of 'absorbed')

'aim' is the second definition.
('intent' can be a synonym of 'aim')

(Other definitions for intent that I've seen before include "With mind fixed on purpose, concentrated" , "Mean to" , "Resolved; purpose" , "Keen" , "wrapped up" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
