“Excellent!” the clown said, grinning down at you.  He crouches and puts the hand holding you down to the ground, so you step off, staring up at him.  “Now then, let’s get you back to normal, and then, we can have some more fun for the audience.”
He snapped his fingers, and immediately, you felt yourself start to grow.  It’s subtle at first, with a swelling feeling that starts in your feet, but it spreads all over your body, until your entire self is expanding in size, bit by bit.  Thankfully, just like before, your clothes is growing along with you, so you don’t have to worry about that.  And so your body swells up in size, little by little, and you get taller with each passing second.
As you grow, your body increases in mass to fit the change back to normal, and you feel your hips expanding, your hands growing, your legs swelling.  It’s comforting to know that you’re returning to normal.  First your head was only up to the clown’s foot.  But soon you’re up to his knee, then his waistline, then his stomach, then his chest, until you’re as tall as him again—back to your normal height!  Your body catches up quickly, and soon, you’re all back again, a regular-sized clown in front of the main clown.
“Perfect,” the clown says to you, smiling.  “Now . . . let’s make you a bit smaller, a bit cuter.  Trust me, my audience is going to love you that way.”
He stretches his hands out, then brings them together in a /clap/.  After that, he reaches into his pocket, and pulls out a pink clown nose.  He holds it out to you, offering it, and says, “Take it.  It will change you to a better version of yourself—trust me, you’re going to look perfect.”
You nod and take the clown nose.  Then, you put it on your face.  It fits perfectly over the clown nose that’s already there, going right over it.  After a moment, the nose begins to change you.
You start shrinking again, which makes you cry out in surprise.  You just got your height back and now you’re going back down again?!  The clown puts a finger to his lips.  “Trust me,” he insists.  “You’re going to look great once this is all over. . .”
You slowly nod, and let yourself go down in height and mass, not resisting the change anymore.  You shrink down further and further, your head no longer reaching the clown’s—now it’s down to his chest, and still shrinking.
Your hands and feet reduce in size, and your legs go down in size.  It doesn’t stop until your head reaches the waistline of the clown—you sure are short now!  You’re as tall as a child.  But it doesn’t stop there.
You feel your face stretching, and your eyes become wider on your head, increasing in size.  If you could see your pupils, you would have noticed them increasing in size too, until your eyes are more like an anime character’s: big and adorable.  Then, all of the stubble on your chin shrinks back into your skin, disappearing from sight.  Your hands tingle, and you look down to see that your nails are now painted an cute pink color.  Your feet tingle as well, and you can only guess that the same thing has happened to them, within your big clown feet.
Then, the transformation stops, and the clown smiles at you.  “You look adorable now,” he coos.  “Come on—I know a place we can go hang out before the big show.  Come with me!”
He marches away, and you follow him, confused but curious as to what your destination will be.  The two of you leave the circus and walk along the road for a bit, until the two of you reach a public park.
“Now,” the clown says, walking around the park, “let me tell you more about myself.”
He snaps his fingers, and you’re suddenly muscled.  “I used to be a normal person,” he says, snapping his fingers again: now you’re fat.  “But a mysterious magician gave me these powers.”  Another snap: now you’re huge, your head reaching the sky.  “Since then, I’ve used them to entertain people.”  One more snap: you’re as tiny as a mouse!  “And you can be a part of that too—if you want to be.”  Last snap: you’re back to your cute, normal self.
The two of you return to the circus, and the clown gives you a smile.  “I have to go there soon,” he says, pointing to the big top.  “How about you join me, apprentice?  Be a part of my act?”
You think for a minute, the nod.
“Excellent!” the clown says.
“This is going to be great.”
