( 2/1 context )

1D - ( 2C ) - 2H - ( p )
??

x x
A x
A J x x x
K J x x

( partner's 2H shows 5+ cards and forcing 1 round ) ....
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
To you:
2NT doesn't seem right with no ♠-stop(s) eventho have ♣-stop(s)...
3C doesn't seem right; eventho "no clear direction", shouldn't this bid be stronger ?
3D doesn't seem right with only 5 cards... and not the greatest at that...
3H doesn't seem right with just 2 cards ( although A x might be an exception )...

What is the "least lie" ?

Edit: Wouldn't 3C be a game force ?

2NT seems right to me, it's not a lie at all. I don't recall this bid promising stoppers in all the unbid suits, just in the suit they bid (arguably not even in that suit).

Easy 2NT

"Well to be perfectly honest, in my humble opinion, of course without offending anyone who thinks differently from my point of view, but also by looking into this matter in a different perspective and without being condemning of one's view's and by trying to make it objectified, and by considering each and every one's valid opinion, I honestly believe that I completely forgot what I was going to say."

Somewhat balanced? Check.

Stopper in their suit? Check.

Minimal HCP? Check.
Please note: I am interested in boring, bog standard, 2/1.
