Interesting is that it matters if one puts colons after words:

one % :

\pic

two:

\pic

Anyhow, the problem is that tikz messes around with cq. assumes nullfont 
to be in a certain state which is asking for troubles.

In font-set.mkvi there is some provision for this (which I don't like), 
but anyhow, one can uncomment the \dorecurse line

\def\font_preloads_reset_nullfont
   {\dorecurse\plusseven{\fontdimen\recurselevel\nullfont\zeropoint}% 
keep en eye on this as:
    \ctxcommand{resetnullfont()}% in luatex 0.70 this will also do the 
previous
    \globallet\font_preloads_reset_nullfont\relax}

maybe tikz should push/pop nullfont dimens to be on the safe side as 
there is no rule against setting nullfont

(btw, this problem has shown up before)
