Default Absolute 25c: KQo first in on button, reraised, AAQ flop

Please comment on my play on both streets. No reads (I'm new to the table). Absolute .25 game generally plays very tight for these stakes, especially full ring.

(EDIT: OK, here's the full HH.)
Stage #242153952: Holdem No Limit $0.10 - 2005-12-07 20:31:08 (ET)
Table: JAPONICA AVE (Real Money) Seat #2 is the dealer
Seat 2 - Hero ($11.40 in chips)
Seat 3 - BUFFETT ($9 in chips)
Seat 4 - VEEB0Y ($9.65 in chips)
Seat 5 - PIRATEJOE ($8 in chips)
Seat 6 - JIM WISLER ($10.75 in chips)
Seat 7 - NUTTZALLDAY ($24.75 in chips)
Seat 8 - FORT ($10.75 in chips)
Seat 9 - GHOSTTRAIN ($18.60 in chips)
Seat 1 - DIMITRIT ($9.65 in chips)
BUFFETT - Posts small blind $0.10
VEEB0Y - Posts big blind $0.25
*** POCKET CARDS ***
Dealt to Hero [Kh Qc]
PIRATEJOE - Folds
JIM WISLER - Folds
NUTTZALLDAY - Folds
FORT - Folds
GHOSTTRAIN - Folds
DIMITRIT - Folds

[As Qd Ad]
BUFFETT - Bets $1.50
Hero - Raises $3.50 to $3.50

(For full result see link.)

Rationale: Preflop He min-reraised so I'm getting reasonable pot-odds if I can keep from getting stuck with a dominated hand. There's also some chance he's on a resteal although my table image is a blank slate.

Flop: There's a reasonable chance he has something like JJ , TT, or two big diamonds and I'm ahead, or KK and will give it up to a raise. (The paired aces probably make him think the same thing I think, i.e. it's likely neither of us has an ace.)

Certainly if I'm reraised or even called, I don't take any more aggressive action. (Even if I catch a K or Q, I can't be beating any hand that calls me here except a flush draw.)

Looks alright, I guess. Raised/reraised pots with lots of paint cards are always tricky, but I like to play aggressively in situations like this (I raise preflop, am reraised, ace flops). If they have an ace, you'll know soon enough (and for relatively cheap). If not, they'll have a tough time calling your bets, even if they're ahead.

On a side note, making people click another link to actually see your hand is kinda lame, best to post it directly.

I changed it above in deference to the majority. Guess it's a matter of taste, but I find that site quite handy.

Thanks for the reply.
