i think it it between C and D?

anonymous · Answer

It should be C, third person omniscient is like an overseer because it tells what everyone is doing not just one. So D would not be right because it does not talk about one character only. :)

anonymous · Answer

oh okay, so the third-person omniscient always talks about all the characters?

anonymous · Answer

Yep...third person omniscient talks about the whole story using all the characters, it's like one of those imaginary narrators that sees everything that's happening.
