My narrative requires that, at a certain point in Hellion Prince, Damarhis finds a certain individual charming.  Said individual is now doing their level best to charm, and my inner Damarhis is recoiling in a fit of paranoia.  He's not supposed to be this perceptive, dammit.  And if he figures said character out too early, the plot accelerates entirely out of my control into unknown territory where things start happening long before my outline says they are supposed to, and without the full structural support of foreshadowing, worldbuilding, and evolving relationships to contextualize them.  Or, you know, something else happens for roughly 30% of the novel, and I haven't got a bastard clue what that 30% might be.

What do I do?

(Other than sulk, RP, and scribble stories about peacockboys).
