DBL would be your weakest action ( like an immediate 2nd negative ) .

But 2Q's is a positive hand ... so pass! ( = forcing ).

I would double to show bust. For bad or worst I require an ace or 2 Kings for a positive response (King and queen is borderline, you can do both depending on shape, spots etc).

Some play X shows bust
Suit shows that and some values but not as strict as 2/3 top honors
So pass would be forcing

2N 22-24?
I don't think we set 3♥ sufficiently to score better than our game. If MPs might gamble 3N, but IMPs 4♦ planning to rebid 5♣ if available.
Be the partner you want to play with.
Trust demands integrity, balance and collaboration.

Partner could potentially have no heart stopper or Axx or something so I'd bid 3S. If he chooses a minor over 3N that cannot be bad.
