For example, if i do run it with the & at the end it does what I want, yet obviously (to my knowledge) you can't get back to the subshell
Type in "fg" which means foreground. Also works for jobs suspended with "Ctrl-Z". "bg" can be used to put jobs suspended with "Ctrl-Z" into the background (as if run with &).
Googling for "job control" could help. I would also suggest reading a UNIX/Linux Shell Tutorial. It's worth learning a few helpful commands to get your everyday shell work done quicker.
Googling? Do man bash and read up on job control.
