Do Affini usually collect giant dolls?

NSFW

Several pictures are attached to the post, none of which show ‘William’. They show a series of Terran-sized dolls posed in various positions throughout a standard Affini hab unit. They all wear unique outfits, but their faces are nearly identical. Each falls somewhere between femininity and androgyny in terms of general appearance.

Woof, what a weird two days it’s been. Luminaris Miss Lophiris picked me up yesterday and I mean that both figuratively and literally. I don't believe she let me touch the ground a single time until this morning. I can understand if she didn't want me falling behind (the hab we're in is pretty far from the med bay), but I wanted to give this whole one-legged thing a shot before I decide on if I want a prosthetic, y’know?

Anyway, that's not really why I made this post. As you can see from the attached images, this hab is just…filled with giant dolls??? The damn dang things are creepy as all hell heck and I'm pretty sure one of them has been staring at me. Now, I don't know if these are robots or if Luminaris Miss Lophiris is just messing with me, but either way it's making my skin crawl. I said I'd keep an open mind about this wardship situation, but this seems a bit ridiculous.

Also, skipping that C-blocker dose yesterday was probably a bad call given the fact that I was with her for the entire rest of the day. Her biorhythm had me scrambled until she dropped me in my room (which is, thankfully, doll-free), but even without me being right next to her, I guess her room must be next to mine because I could hear it all night. I took a puff of the inhaler and that was, thankfully, enough to help me get out my head (especially after my cuff pricked me with a Class Z). Waking up now, though, and having the clarity to think back…God, it was so weird.

I mentioned before how Captain Hirtanis's biorhythm had me zoning out whenever she was around. Luminaris's Miss Lophiris's biorhythm seems similar, but it's got its own distinct quality to it. Where the Captain's had me so relaxed I could barely notice what was going on, Luminaris's Miss Lophiris's had more of a…whatever the word is for a thing that makes you docile (pacifying?) kind of effect. I couldn't even hardly think about doing anything other than being in her vines and letting her do everything for me. It was a nice feeling, but it didn't feel right, if that makes any sense?

Anyway, with the C-blocker in my system again, I think I’ve settled enough to get through today. I’ll give it a few more days to see if I can get Luminaris Miss Lophiris to tone things down a bit (I didn't even think about doing it yesterday, for whatever reason) and if the dolls stop being creepy, but if not…well, does anyone know how to request a change of caretaker?
