[She is, in fact, wrong. In actual fact, Austria specifically requested her help. Of course she would have ordinarily asked Germany, or failing that, any one of her acquaintances, but the problem is, she's getting pretty much everyone's presents today, and she'd prefer not to spoil any surprises. So obviously Prussia is the only person left she can ask, because she doesn't care about her surprises, and apart from anything she's pretty sure Prussia doesn't either, being the impatient person she is. It's difficult to shop for her, actually, so Prussia gets the privilege of coming along and just choosing something. Within a reasonable price range.And while she wasn't necessarily expecting her- she didn't know if she would even agree and she didn't get a call or anything, god- she is, at least, not asleep or otherwise loafing around. She's dressed- in a a very pretty, wintery, seven layers of fluffiness to keep the cold out sort of outfit- and made up and she's currently running a brush through her curls. Or rather, dropping the brush,

The hell? And you couldn't text me something like that? Or Tweet? Or message me on Facebook? Or send me an ask on Tumblr Or-
[She goes on quite a bit...Prussia is on every social networking site ever. Twice. Seriously she is the easiest person to get in contact with. But once she gets the destination plugged in Prussia takes it and hits enter, dumbass, and drops the GPS on her dash. After a second a voice in very mechanical robotic German starts giving them instructions.]
Tch, idiot. Do you know what an email is? Kesesese, freaking awesome! I'm buying the most expensive thing in the store!!
[She's kidding. Probably. And poking at the screen doesn't do much luckily, though enjoy looking at all the settings and so on...just don't change anything.]
I'm damn positive you have at least one because I remember laughing my ass off when you got it.
Try something like that then stupid. But then half of my Christmas present would be to see your reaction!
[Just gonna ignore that question about what she wants because she...doesn't know. Sure she's been crying all over the meme about wanting a new PSP but that's mostly to bother Gil. There are a couple video games and books that have maybe caught her eye once or twice but, for the first time in her life she's been so absorbed in getting things for other people she hasn't thought of herself. It's a really weird feeling, make it stop.
And no it's not important, though Prussia just looks over at her with a clear "keep your hands to yourself" look about her when the next instruction comes out in French.]
But I don't like corresponding electronically...tsk, keep it under €80!
[Which is her absolute upper limit for her closest family and friends. Everyone else is more like 20 tops. Aww, Prussia, are you finally growing up and being selfless?
Whoops. She stops touching...but soon enough starts poking at the radio instead.]
It's better than dragging me out here under false pretenses. If I didn't know any better I'd say it's almost like you want to spend time with me.
[She just rolls her eyes at the spending limit. Of course there's a catch. And no, shut up, damnit once she sees something shiny she wants she'll be back to normal but just sitting in the car like this she can't think of anything.
Once she stops touching Prussia reaches over and turns it back to German. Because. And as soon as Austria manages to get the radio on a metal station pops up. Quite loudly in fact.]
[Well okay now she just laughs because her reaction is too funny. Silly Austria, she should know by now there is no classical music to be found in Prussia's car.]

[Fiddle, fiddle...what does this button do? Oh...aha. Eventually she gets 'Cafe Hawelka, Wien' entered in somehow, and holds it out again.]
Is it right? Will that work?

[For a moment, Austria is quite fascinated by the device, though she makes a face at the voice.]
Mm...useful, aren't they...

[blinks] Wait...you're saying I get to buy myself a Christmas present with your money?
[Buhyoo Lottie, it's quite fascinated isn't it? But there's nothing she can do about the voice, except change it from male or female.]
Yeah, hasn't West gotten you like a truck load of them?

[She's poking at the little screen now.]
Mm? Ah...I don't recall...

[Poke, poke...oh...she changed something but she doesn't know what it was, oops. That's not important, right?]
Yes well no one took the time to explain to me how to use it so I put it away somewhere. Tsk.

What did I tell you about touching?

[Grumps, keeping her hands to herself and ducking down so most of her face is hidden in her scarf and collar.]
Reply
[Well since she asked for it...FLOORS IT and goes off top speed towards their destination. Hiding won't save her now.]
