Knight of Swords and Knight of Pentacles

Speed against method, with no feeling in either card. The tradition reads this as the most purely operational Knight pairing: one wants it now and one wants it right, and the situation will be decided by whichever gets its way rather than by a compromise.

An unromantic pairing for two courts. Associated with practical disagreements about pace: moving in, committing, deciding.

The deadline against the standard. Read where both are legitimate and the disagreement is structural rather than personal.

These two do not meet in the middle in the tradition; one of them gives way. Working out which, deliberately, beats finding out later.
