As a castmate, I have some serious concerns about how willing Rook is not only to get drunk around someone who's proven that he very much can't be trusted around people who are in their right minds, much less people who aren't. Considering that the person in question also murdered Havemercy, who Rook values above most things- as well as people- and his brother, it's a little unsettling that he would be willing, upon arriving, be quite so amicable. I understand that his memories aren't quite all there, but that isn't actually the case in this instance, considering that in his first reply to him, it's stated that Rook remembers exactly what Rolo did to Havemercy. And Rook is hardly the type to forgive and forget

1) It's pretty much canon that Rook holds his alcohol well. Considering that he's always on guard around Rolo, it's even less likely that he would get drunk to a point of being not in his "right mind"; there's no one in the world that he trusts enough to get shitfaced drunk in front of, to the point of being unable to handle himself.
2) At the end of Rook's last stay on Atia, Rook and Rolo had come to a tentative, if somewhat reluctant, ceasefire. Rook doesn't have a moral high ground in this situaion; given the opportunity, he would have revenge-killed Lelouch without a second thought, fully aware of what Lelouch means to Rolo, so on some level (albeit a very buried level), he understands Rolo's motivations, even though there are no forces in the universe powerful enough to compel him to actually forgive Rolo
