ARGH, I knew I should have written this down fully.
OK, A.C. has something like this she's been working on (and my current plans have it being announced at the end of SerenityCon, after all the excitement),
but her's actually RESTARTS the biomodification proccess. By SerenityCon she'd have managed to essentially multiply biomod a tree. However, the stress
on the system is so great that extreme life support is needed.
It's based off the idea that biomods continue to support themselves (for things like healing), and as such produce quiescent and active handwavium from
their dormant supply to maintain the biomod. A.C.'s procedure is to extract some of this 'maintenance' handwavium, grow it up to trigger levels,
mix it with plain handwavium then flush the modies body with it.
Needles to say, A.C. wasn't exactly in a good frame of mind when this idea came to her (see the story Paving the road to Hell).
(I've bounced this around backstage with Fnord with no complaints as of yet. Probably because of how difficult it is and because it technically doen't
give the recipient a second mod, just changes the existing one.)
