Karkat makes a look that's not a smile, but is satisfied when the case lands as he'd planned. The effect is readily apparent: with the button depressed, a path lights up along the tiles in red, linking between the block and its proper wall spot. It's not a straight line, though, and two of the other blocks occupy spots along the path.

"Okay, this looks straightforward enough. Obviously we need to get the block from point a to point b, and that path is too obvious to ignore. I'm guessing the other blocks will have their own paths once we get to them and press their buttons, and obviously they're going to have to move anyway so we can get the first one into the right spot."
