Yup - my first thought too!
Tea should ALWAYS be sent for...
(or should that be scent for)

Although it hasn't been presented as completely analogous, my instinctual impression is that she's standing around in her underwear right now ... Great, now I'm flustered!
EDIT: Also, I hadn't drawn any connection between Melon's and May's chassis being similar; I simply read it as Bubbles remarking on Melon being eccentric.

Bubbles just didn't want to get her new clothes dirty at work.
And I don't think that May and Melon have the same chassis. Based on what Bubbles said, Melon chose her chassis, and I doubt she'd choose one that's been called an "AnthroPC Reformchassis" as May's was.

Scented candles, or any open flame, are counter-indicated in an environment where they'll be welding. And the aromatic oils in the air may interfere with sensitive components. Steeped tea close up is probably for the best.

The fact that when we see Bubbles with tea it's in some kind of fantasy (e.g. background replaced, images not present in that setting), and now a candle is being asked for during what is akin to day-surgery, for anxiety (similar to how people may ask for sedatives for blood draws etc), can we assume that scents have the function of anaesthesia for AI chassis?
Otherwise, one would wonder, with all this about programs for senses, why it seems significantly common for AIs have this kind of sensitivity (Winslow's new chassis has it, even).

According to Bubbles, every scent provokes its own unique sensory reaction. Hannelore is adept at blending teas that create a strong hallucinogenic effect. However, yes, I imagine that there are some blends that create a feedback loop which, until it fades out, induces a somatic state where the central processor is unable to process sensory data and the AI is in state not unlike sleep mode.
