Okuu continued building her sand castle, which was really more of a featureless dome because she couldn't decide where to put anything, when somehow a shrill noise managed to pierce her singleminded devotion to making a very big house. Currently it was about five feet tall and wide, but Okuu wanted to make it even bigger. Maybe an idea for a feature would come to her soon.

Regardless, Okuu waved at the clown who had made the noise and pointed to her wondrous dome-shaped house with no doors or windows or individual rooms.

"Hi, mister clown! I'm making a house for my friends and I to live in!"

Then, she noticed all the other people she had met in one big group and waved at them too.

"I'm making a house!" she announced proudly.
