Two rooks vs. queen?

the advantage that the queen has over the rooks is that it's just 1 piece and thus easier to work with. Therefore, it lets you be lazy.

But with no pawns or other pieces on the board, couldn't the queen just perpetually check the opposing king?

With no pawns you have a draw. But I agree, you have to play the rooks with more proficiency, or you're going to get nailed with a fork.
