CHARACTER TROUBLE

So, I've got this OC named Foreman, and he's a shape-shifter. That's awesome, but I've hit a snag as regards the science behind his ability.

Right now, the idea is that he can alter his molecular structure, but when he morphs into somebody smaller, like River, or a young child, where does all that extra mass go? And how does he get it back when he reverts to his regular form?

Now, I could follow WoonSocket's idea in the comments on Starfall - Chapter 2 and make his ability a telepathic one, as in, he projects mental illusions, or maybe he could project optical illusions. Making the change wouldn't be that big of a deal.

What do you all think?
