Mostly just buying up properties and businesses. Nothing too underhanded. Yet. [So nothing she could pass on to Jerry. Even if she didn't agree with the system here, she wasn't against keeping Silco on Jerry's radar. Especially since she was about 99% sure Silco complained to Jerry about Vi punching him and got her sentenced. But she knew it would only be the start. He had to work his way back up, to the amount of power and money he had in Zaun.
It's honestly been a lot, trying not to think about all this for this last year. She had it thrown in her face when that maze appeared, had to see the death and destruction herself, but she still tried to move past it. She knew it would do her no good, to linger in the unknown. And while it sometimes drove her crazy that Vi never wanted to talk about her past, she was immensely grateful that Vi did not bring any of it up, because she didn't want to talk about it either.
But here she was, opening that valve, letting out the flood gates she had been holding back in for so long now.]
At least-- [Her voice cracks a little, but she takes a deep breath when she feels his hand on her shoulder.]
At least, your return confirms that time hasn't gotten away from us. Once we find our way out of here, we can get back to them. [And hopefully, it won't be in vain. Hopefully it won't mean the last time she saw her mother alive was long in the past.]
