fine.

can't raise flop, can't fold flop. more equity on turn and his bet is a reasonable size to call down in the event he's bluffing. Realize equity on river - no need to donk (unlikely a worse hand calls) but can't fold in the event villains overvaluing QX or thought he was vbetting 7x on turn/river.

Idk about the turncall. I would probably checkraise or just fold leaning towards folding. But I think calling being the worst option here. I think people just call too much on turns specially oop.

Probably Qx, can't we raise river? Or is it too thin?

Yeah I was thinking that but then looking over it we're beat by 28 combos {QQ,TT,77,Q7s,T7s,AsKs,As9s,Ks9s,As8s,Ks8s,As6s,Ks 6s,As5s,Ks5s,As3s,Ks3s,As2s,Ks2s,Q7o,T7o} and beat 40 combos of 7x. I was thinking that some of that 7x won't bet on a paired board with a flush possible. But if we think he can value-own himself with all 7x and Qx then raising river for sure. I'm not sure he'd bet so big on the riv with Qx... or even with a weak 7x... it is a backdoor flush I suppose... maybe AQ/KK/AA would triple, so maybe x/r riv is good, dunno.

Think I agree, {AA,KK,AQ,9s8s,7x} is enough to justify it

I agree with flop and turn. Turn call vs x/r... I just don't think we need to bully for the pot at the moment, we have showdown value and good outs to improve. I'm also pretty sure that anything that is going to fire a 3rd barrel at us on the river is also a safe fold if we don't improve.

On the river, I think I prefer a decent sized lead bet instead of x/c, despite how transparent it may seem. Villian is often going to give up on a bluff or just take a free showdown with Qx type hands.
