'a' looks most interesting, and 'b' is something I would like to get if B responds submissively. However, 'c' feels honte, and is very important for making sure Black doesn't get a really strong attack potentially on both my groups . I need to think about this.
I'm a little hesitant to play this move, as it feels like it could be really bad and I am setting myself up for embarassment. But if it is bad I don't see it. If Black protects his territory, I will treat it as a forcing exchange and he has played 5 stones to secure that area. If he tries to attack it, I can treat it light and solidify my top in the fight.

Approved.
I don't have a better move though I, too, am hesitant about making this one.

Man, this is a tough one. Really tempted to take sente here and go to H6, I feel that's the biggest point. If I responded here I'd just play r14 and preserve the invasion aji on top and the attacking aji on the right

Violence hasn't been on for a long time too. Should we start looking for a replacement?
