Bear with me but imagine Rook being very young/small when Viago first took them in and they have nightmares early on and both suffer from it (Viago being annoyed and stressed out by having a sleep deprived and anxiety-crippled crow) so a decision was made to have Rook sleep in the same room as Viago.
And I don’t mean like Rook sleeps on the couch in Viago’s bedroom because we all know he doesn’t sleep either, I mean like Rook sleeps on a chair in the corner of Viago’s lab while he crafts poison, having his cloak draped over them while they sleep. Them sleeping on the couch while he goes through papers in his office.
Like Rook starts learning to sleep through loud arguments and poisonous fumes and can now sleep everywhere whenever anytime, and they don’t have nightmares anymore
