Yup, you're first to act and don't want to give away a free card to the flush draw. Bet enough to kill pot odds for the draws and hope someone has a Q

Villian either has the flush or wants you to think he does. Hard to say call this but at the same time it is hard to lay down AA. You would think if he had the flush he would play it out and not push leading me to believe he is bluffing.

Tough spot. If you check, you are likely to face a pretty large bet by Villain representing the made flush. I might elect to bet out smaller now since it is unlikely he is STILL drawing. He either has the made flush or was never on that draw in the first place. It wouldn't make sense that he was drawing to a dry Ace.
I say bet about $6 and if you get popped a bunch, lay it down. If he doesn't have the flush, this smaller bet might look like you are begging for a call and YOU hit the flush.

Did you misread the action again? You say "hard to say call this"...do you mean the extra $.05 that the SECOND Villain raised All-In? There are 3 people in this pot. Hero bet $5, Villain1 (who is the real problem now) called, and Villain2 raised an extra $.05 all in. Then Hero and Villain1 called.
