His head is simply swimming with magical calculations; moving the castle would be so much easier if Sophie hadn't whitewashed the bracket marks on all the walls. Nonetheless, if he figured it out once he can do it again. It's just more work.
And when one is in the midst of that type of intense concentration and focus, it's a good idea to take a break and head down to the local for a pint. In particular, it's a good idea to head to the pub at the end of the universe, because the only person likely to nag him there is Sophie, and it's an off chance she'll be there. She might well be too busy hanging her head over having cleaned the place so thoroughly that she's hidden all his magic. If she does follow him, though, that's all right. She's worked almost as hard as he has at covering up for some grievous mistakes and he's not cruel enough to recognize she deserves to step away from it all as well.
Either way, it's no matter. Moving into the bar, he takes a seat at a table and shakes back his hair and sets one foot crossed over his knee. If there's one place in the world where he always feels at home, it's in a pub.
