Making the most of an online internship at a boutique

I hope everyone's doing well in these crazy times. I'm working in a small boutique bank this summer as one of two interns, and I wanted to hear any suggestions when it comes to making the most of this experience.

The internship is entirely remote and is fairly unstructured. I'm trying to toe the line of being ready to help with whatever I can while not being too naggy towards the senior bankers who are scrambling to get things back to some shred of normalcy, but I fear for the next few weeks there won't be much meaningful work. Any suggestions about how I can optimize this experience and show the partners that I want a return offer, without meeting most of them in person? Thanks
