Confused with TP-turned-trips

Blinds: $0.25/$0.50 (3 Players) BB: $50.00
BN: $50.00 (Hero)
SB: $50.00
Pretty new table, playing on Ignition so no significant reads from the past.
Preflop ($0.75) Hero is BN with K A 5 5
Hero raises to $1.75, SB folds, BB raises to $5.50, Hero calls $3.75
Given the width of my RFI range, BB being unknown, and me having AKds with a pair... I think folding ends up being too tight. So I call. (It's not a great spot for a 4bet, I don't think.)
Flop ($11.25) T T A
BB bets $6.50, Hero calls $6.50
Sort of like preflop, I just feel like a fold here is too tight, but I'm not thrilled about where I'm at. They can have Tx and AA (though I block the latter), but they can also be taking a stab with all sorts of stuff I'm beating (JJ-KK; low-mid rundowns that have totally missed)... given the wet flop (with KQJ and dd firmly in their range)... maybe a call is just asking for trouble, but I'm not sure.
Turn ($24.25) T T A A
BB bets $24.25, Hero
At this point, I feel like I'm actually in pretty good shape. They now can't have AA and I also beat all of their Tx except AT and TT. I also outkick or tie other Ax (though I can be getting freerolled a bit by other AK hands).

Their potting is somewhat discouraging, but folding the best turn in the deck seems wrong. Weird spot...

having a pair hurts our hand but im never folding. if we call we have 13 left for river pot of 74ish. I would flat and hope he bricks river with AQQJ,KQJT etc type hands. might be a problem if he will check though because that will change the dymanic and it might be better to shove turn to get max value. AQQJ for instance, isn't folding for 13 more, but might end up checking a 2-9 or diamond river looking to showdown.
