John Candy TF/MC with weight gain

Note:
This is based on experiences i’ve had with people who have judged my work in a questionable manner or have just said the same stupid thing over and over again.  And also this is based on a few dreams I had last night and has a possession element as well since it involves a ghost of some kind.   I have been kind of hesitant about doing a TF into him because he is dead in real life and I try to be as respectful as possible,  but since he is someone I admire a lot I find that it’s easy for me to at least try.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Internet trolls and a-logger wannabes are practically no different than bullies,  only swap out the wedgies and other forms of bullying with insults, lame meme references and weening.  Take for example our rather antagonistic protagonist Alan Parkerson aka Lulzhunter40,  a scruffy know-nothing lay-about who was constantly searching for poor saps to make into the next big lulcow -  unfortunately for him everyone else ignored him and didn’t listen to a word he said,  but up until this point his mistake had been picking fights with people who clearly knew better than to pick a fight with him.

That included his latest victim Nathan Forester aka Monstermaster13,  formerly known as Drmusic2.  Or as he so affectionately dubbed him the ‘Werejohncandy guy’  because of his character creation which was basically John Candy as a yeti or sasquatch-esque monster,  he loved to pick on him for this reason alone and yet he always lost,  for a good reason..his insults weren’t original,  he was just rehashing the same material other trolls had used before him and claiming them as his own. 

One night he was talking to his troll buddies about how the concept of said character was ‘stupid’ according to him when Nathan himself spoke up and objected,  now he truly did have enough of this man and his stupidity.

“Enough…”

“Is the werejohncandy guy going to defend himself?”

“I have a name you know,  and my name is Nathan Forester.  The werejohncandy is a fictional character -  well,  fictional in the real world that isn’t featured in these particular stories -  real in this world and the monster world in general,  but still...also his name is Chumsley. ”

“But you pretended to be him at one time claiming you were a natural born one.”

“That was an RP character,  it wasn’t real.”

“But…”

“But nothing,  you and every other internet troll took it way too seriously.  I’ve never been one and never will be.  And you think that it means I want to wear John Candy as a costume? Uhhh, he’s dead,  he’s been dead since 1994.  At least in whatever world/dimension you originated from,  but in this dimension he is very much alive and well…”

“That guy on the blog said so though.”

“Oh you mean the blog that no longer exists?  That blog that made up rumors about Tim Burton directing the Twilight movies and also made a post about a children’s book adaptation of The Dark Knight?”

“Uhhh…”

“Well he clearly didn’t understand the character and the idea.  I didn’t say I wanted to be the character or be John Candy in general.  Granted if he was still alive in your world I would have brought him here to this dimension and given him a hug.  But I think we all know that he’s dead and there’s no changing that.”

“What about those early blog entries YOU made?”

“Oh..those?  I was merely experimenting.  I was portraying a fictional version of myself and none of the events in those blogs are canon with the events in this universe.  The whole becoming fused with the werejohncandy character thing was part of a satirical episode of the series that parodied The Fly.   The blogs that I previously owned and used are mostly all satirical video blogs and journals.”

“That’s not what the guys on the forum said..”

“They just dislike me in general,  they’re just weening.  It’s never cool to do that.”

“They…”

“I know,  they thought that everything that happens to the fictional version of me happens in THIS universe as well.   It doesn’t,  none of the events in that universe are canon to the ones in this universe at all.  And fyi,  I don’t count the forum war storyline as being part of either universe to be honest since I wasn’t involved with either of those. Despite what they have told you.”

“Wait...you WEREN’T involved in that storyline?”

“Heck no,  I was only talked into doing them in the universe of that storyline to try and stop people from harassing me,   nothing I actually said in that universe was in character and nothing from that universe exists in this one.”

“But there was this whole thing about Werebelushi In Shades…”

“Werebelushi In Shades is a Spin-Off of one of my review show skits.  His show takes place in the same universe as the one we live in and with the same characters but what happens in that universe is  different than what goes on in this one.  It's a spin-off and thus doesn't count as part of the main storyline."

“What about the Were-teenage girl?”

“She is part of the forum wars storyline which as I have mentioned,  has nothing to do with me at all.  In addition to this she was basically just a No Celebrities Were Harmed parody of Ke$ha and Miley Cyrus.”

“What about the were-nudist colony and the were-objects?”

“Again...forum wars, nothing to do with me.”

“You swapped bodies/forms with John Candy in one of your storylines...which one was this?”

“That was an AU storyline that takes place in the 80’s.”

“There’s one question about the werejohncandy I don’t get...why did you make him immortal and unable to die?  I bring this up because during the forum wars storylines they made a big deal out of it,  and well...it has been plaguing my mind for quite some time.”

“Ah,  that was part of the original concept where he was a demigod who protected the mountains and forest and he was immune to physical harm but also had a factor that made him immortal.   That idea was scrapped though.”

“Aaaaw...but I liked that concept.”

“The other concept had him as an imaginary friend/guardian angel.”

“That was a pretty good concept too.”

“You know what?  Now that you’ve given me your reasons as to why you are obsessed with my work and why you have so many questions about it,  it makes me think that you’re not a bad guy after all...maybe,  maybe you’re just confused.   Maybe I could teach you a few things and answer a few more questions.”

“I would like that...could you tell me about the first few Tales From The Web seasons?  Because there's something about those that has always been eating away at me.  I’m a fan of the show in general but could you tell me what exactly you think of the first few seasons of it?”

"Sure..well,  it wasn't exactly what I call the best of the show or the best season of it for that matter.   Looking back at them,  they don’t hold up well.  Granted a LOT of people could relate to them with the antagonists being trolls and bullies and everything but it’s not my favorite of the show’s seasons to be honest.”

“The one where the hunter gets turned into a weregrinch as punishment also stuck out as one I could relate to,  and the cockroach tf in the very first episode is still one that I view as one of the scariest transformations in the whole show.   It’s kind of a shame that you don’t view them as being as good as they used to be.”

“Don’t get me wrong,  I still think they are good episodes but they haven’t held up well. A lot of the earlier episodes basically were cautionary tales like Grizzly Tales For Gruesome Kids and Tales From The Crypt and a lot of the so called protagonists who were transformed were usually unlikable to begin with.  It’s just when people started criticising it as being unfair and that the character didn’t do anything wrong,  that’s when I had to point it out to them.”

“I have a question i’ve been meaning to ask you...you said that you know John Candy or at least his ghost..right?  I remember hearing that in one of the storylines that the fictional version of you does know him.   I might be remembering this incorrectly,  but I do recall that you brought it up, is this true?  I just want to know.”

“Yes, it’s true.”

“Do you think you can bring him here?”

“I can’t bring the dead back to life and even if I could,  it wouldn’t be a pretty picture.”

“Are we talking Romero’s zombies here or something like that?”

“Romero and a little bit of Raimi.  Trust me,  you wouldn’t want to know what happens when I attempt to resurrect the dead.  It’s gory, graphic,  messy,  creepy,  messed up and extremely horrifying for all those involved.”

“Could you summon his ghost?”

“Yes..”


Nathan concentrated as he performed a spirit summoning spell that summoned the ghost of John Candy from Alan’s dimension into this one,  concentrating extremely hard as he did so, the spirit of the comedian materialized right before him as he floated around for a few second. Alan couldn’t believe his eyes,  there was the spirit of the comedian floating around with a grand smile on his face. 

“Wow,  that’s incredible.”

“Of course it is...expect nothing less from me.”

He reached over and tried to hug the comedian,  but then he realized that he couldn’t, mainly because Candy was still in his ghost form and obviously he needed a body.  But luckily though, Candy had a solution,  he politely asked Alan to open his mouth and Alan obliged,  he dove down his throat which in turn possessed Alan.   His stomach gurgled a few times as his skin slowly began to lose its imperfections, his scraggly and scruffy build started to bulk up and gain weight as his chest and torso broadened.

In addition to this his clothing slowly grew and changed to fit his growing body as his stomach broadened as well,  his arms broadened and his hands pumped up in size to become much larger as his fingers thickened a bit,  his whole body in general was gaining weight to give him a slightly cuddly appearance as his rear inflated a little and his legs lengthened and broadened a bit,   he didn’t mind this though as he quite liked it.    His back and shoulders broadened a bit as he elevated in height to 6’3,  as this was happening his mind was already altering and he was thinking about all sorts of wonderful times he had throughout his life.

These included being a member of the Second City comedy troupe in Toronto and also of being a former athlete and also an actor and comedian,     his neckline changed as his jawline broadened a bit and gained a double chin of sorts,  making him look quite cuddly,  as if he wasn’t already cuddly  -   his hair lengthened a bit and turned from its dark shade of brown to a lighter shade that was still sandy colored as his eyebrows thickened a bit.  His eyes widened and darkened a bit as his nose changed shape,  his features morphed and reshaped themselves as his voice altered,  becoming a bit deeper but also becoming jovial and cheerful sounding with hints of a Canadian accent of sorts.     His features and voices had become those of the ghost’s full bodied form,  actually all of him had changed that way too.

His memories were becoming clearer now,  as he remembered who he was,  he was John Candy, the late great comedian and star of films like Planes, Trains and Automobiles.  Cool Runnings, Delirious,  and Uncle Buck.   John looked over at Nathan and smiled as Mel the koala-girl manifested in front of them.

“Yesss!  I did it!  I finally managed to have someone come back from the dead without it resulting in them becoming a zombie or Deadite.  I can’t believe I actually did it.  Maybe i’m getting better at this.  But just to be sure….John, are you in one piece?  You’re not falling apart are you?   You don’t have a desire to eat brains or swallow my soul,  right?”

“Of course i’m all in one piece.  And i’m fine.  Thank you very much for asking. And also thank you for bringing me here.  I am sorry for what the version of Alan did in the forum wars storyline and how he treated you,  I guess at the time he didn’t know better.  And he was probably just lost and confused..”

“That’s alright,  he is forgiven and so are you.”

“You’re not mad at me?”

“Of course I am not mad at you in anyway,  I mean you’re John Candy.  And you know,  even when people do get angry at you,  they don’t do stay mad for long and they usually apologize to you afterwards anyway.   Besides,  we’re even...you helped me a long while back in one of the canon timelines and I helped you in the SCTV City universe.”

“You’re right there…”

“And more than that,  we’re close friends.  The version of you in the non-supernatural world may have passed away but you’ll always be alive and well here,  it’s basically your own version of being immortal as it were.  And you can come here anytime you want to and anytime you need a helping hand,  just call on me.”

“What about the version of Alan in the forum wars though?  I fear he might not be able to understand how you do the things you do,  or what the storylines that have me in them mean,  or us in general for that matter.”

“Don’t you worry about that,  I have an idea.”

“Does this idea involve a spell by any chance?”

“Oh,  it certainly does. You know it does.”

Mel looked over at John for a few seconds and hugged him,  she couldn’t believe her eyes..seeing the legendary comedic actor that Nathan had told her so much about all these years right before her,   it was fantastic and also very satisfying.

“Wow...it’s THE John Candy!  Eeeee!”

“Easy there girl…”

“I can’t help it,  you’re just as lovable as Nathan said you would be.  And you’re so cuddly too, almost as cuddly as me.  I’m Mel by the way.  It’s very nice to meet you,  i’ve heard a lot about you and it’s all good things too..”

“I know all about you too,  Mel.  You’re also pretty cuddly and I hear you’re quite a heroic marsupial as well.  It’s good to see that there are people and monsters in the supernatural world who are kind and generous.”

“Well I do my best...and woah,  Nathan was right about you,  you ARE extremely cuddly. Are you a fellow marsupial by any chance?  Or a Pandaren like Soo?  Because you definitely remind me of a Pandaren.”

“I’m just me…”

“Aaaaw.. I thought I recognized you in the World Of Warcraft universe. That Pandaren priest definitely sounded and acted a lot like you,  and then I looked it up.  That character was you, it was a pandaren version of you.  Soo never told me that you visited Azeroth before.  She did say something about a pandaren priest who is the real article and that what you see is what you get, reminded me of  Del Griffith.”

“Yep,  that’s my Pandaren form.  I use that form when I visit Azeroth and when I meet up with friends from there.   In case you’re wondering,  I bring Eugene Levy with me on my travels as well,  his Warcraft form is a Night Elf.”

“I’m so glad that i’ve gotten to finally meet you.”

John turned to Nathan as he looked over at him with a knowing smile, which in turn lead to him getting an idea as he got his spellbook and chanted a few times.  He had just the spell to use on the forum wars version of Alan,  he concentrated as he fused a bit of his aura with John’s and then transferred over to Alan over in the dimension the ‘Forum Wars’ storyline took place,  nothing happened at first but that changed when he found that he had powers like John’s as well as a few magical abilities.

“So...what kind of spell did you do?”

“Basically  I combined both our auras and fused them with his.  And he has your powers and a few other magical abilities now which I think will come in handy if we needs me”

“Any side effects to that?”

“He may involuntarily transform into you but i’m sure you are okay with that.”

“Are you kidding me?  I love that.  I can have someone to fill in for me when i’m on adventures with you guys,  this has to be the best thing ever.   Thank you so much for doing this and for helping me.”

“No problem,  now as I said it’s an involuntary transformation but over time he will master the ability to do it at will,  at the moment it’s sort of monster form at night or whenever it does dark ordeal but he will get used to it.   And i’m sure he appreciates this as much as we do,  besides..what better way to learn?”

“So it’s sort of a Were-Me ordeal?”

“Well technically...a little bit but not really.”

“But he does have my powers?”

“Yeah he does...plus two supernatural factors that will prove to be pretty useful.  One of them being that he is now ageless and thus immune to aging.  The second being that he has a healing factor that activates if he is close to being injured in anyway and also prevents him from catching illnesses of any kind or suffering from any medical problems.”

“That’s definitely good to hear.”

“Now...what do you say we go on an adventure?”

“Sure…”

And thus with that the three of them went off an adventure and they met many new monster friends along the way,   in addition to this they learned a little bit about the various aspects of the supernatural world in the process.  An educational and entertaining experience was one that all three of them had and they enjoyed themselves.   After all...who wouldn’t want to go on an adventure with John Candy?

As for John,  he was glad to be in the supernatural world and to have friends who liked him for who he was and that his human world counterpart was still missed and loved by fans,  and also he was beyond satisfied that he didn’t have to be in ghost form anymore now that he had his body back and everything.   And also as a bonus,  he was even more pleased when the Forum Wars version of Alan discovered how to transform into him at will,  because not only did it mean he had someone to fill in for him when he was on adventures but also he had another way of being active in that world.

Remember my friends,  even though bullies and internet trolls and the like may be complete pricks on a regular basis - sometimes you might find one that actually just feels lost and confused and isn’t really into the trolling business,  and sometimes these ones just need a bit of guidance to lead them down the right path and maybe someone to help them,  like a mother figure or...yes,  indeed...a father figure.
