Answer 2

Answer:

Indirect characterization

Explanation:

Indirect characterization is a literary element in which an author provides a description of a character by describing his actions, speech and thoughts. This allows the reader to develop an idea in his mind about the way a character is. This is different from direct characterization, which occurs when an author explicitly lists the qualities that a character possesses.
