Default Stars $10/180: Taking Heat on the turn w/ scary board

Villain is 21/18/3.7 over about 60 hands; the only reads I have is that his c-bets seem to differ in size from value bets
(not too relevant here).

The money is still far away, and I have an above-average stack.

I check the flop because the board seems scary. I wish to keep the pot small, if possible (any feedback here is appreciated). Additionally, I have some outs if I'm behind.

Following the villain's turn push, I think my decision is pretty close (though I'm leaning towards a call).

Please tell me if you think it's close, or if I'm being a nit.

Thanks in advance!
