Default NL100 - AQo in BB vs loose raiser

Hi,

short intro of myself: I'm a decently successful MTT'er ($50-$150 stakes) who's played for about 1.5 years. I want to try cash games mainly to improve my deep stack play in tourneys (my biggest weakness), but possibly to split my time between the two as well. I'm rolled for higher stakes, but NL100 seems like a decent place to start. Starting at full ring to ease into the whole thing.

Anyway, this is a spot I find difficult. This particular situation can be a tad special due to stack sizes I guess, but otherwise I'm still a bit lost here....so much easier in an MTT where you can usually just push or fold [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Hero ($129.60)
UTG ($107.50)
UTG+1 ($99)
MP1 ($19.10)
MP2 ($97.50)
MP3 ($103.95)
CO ($40.30)
Button ($69.85)
SB ($108.15)

Preflop: Hero is BB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP1 calls $1, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises to $3</font>, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, Hero calls $2, MP1 calls $2.

Flop: ($9.50) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>

Some reads: the shorty is VERY tight-passive (18/0 stats), the raiser is loose and fishy (25/8), usually slowplays big hands. Not too aggro either preflop or postflop.

What's the best line PF here? Reraise? As played, on the flop?

Big non-pocket hands like AQ/AK just seem so ugh to play OOP in general, any general pointers here?
