Final Fantasy VII[]
Tifa and Aerith first met when Aerith and Tifa's childhood friend, Cloud, teamed up to save Tifa from Don Corneo. Tifa reveals that she wanted to confront Don Corneo, as suspects he has something to do with Shinra. Despite not knowing her personally, Aerith was eager to help Tifa, although Tifa didn't like the idea of dragging Aerith into the affair. Should Cloud get picked by Corneo, Tifa and Aerith are brought into a room where Corneo's men plan to have their ways with them, but both women knock them out before they could and share a high-five.
Their friendship continues to grow, and once they learn Shinra's plan to drop the Sector 7 plate, Tifa asks Aerith to rescue Barret Wallace's adoptive daughter, Marlene, establishing trust between them. Later, Tifa, along with Cloud and Barret, head to Shinra headquarters to rescue Aerith after she was taken by the Turks.
After Aerith, Tifa and their party escape Midgar, they agree to help Cloud in his quest to hunt down Sephiroth and stop him from reaching the Promise Land. Since Aerith wishes to learn more about her Ancient heritage and Tifa wasn't going to let her friends fight Sephiroth alone. When they got to Gongaga they come across Zack Fair's parents who are worried about their son, while the mention of Zack, as he was Aerith's ex-boyfriend and the SOLDIER that Tifa met six years ago, causes both of them to rash out of the house. As their journey takes them to the Temple of the Ancients, where Aerith learns more about her heritage and finds out they need the power of Holy, she leaves Tifa and the others as she makes her way to the Forgotten City. Even though they were able to catch up with Aerith in the Forgotten City, as she meditates to call upon Holy, Sephiroth murders Aerith. Tifa kneels by her body before running away in tears. She later watches Cloud place Aerith's body in the water.
Devastated by Aerith's death, Tifa knew that they must continue their hunt for Sephiroth, as their journey brings Tifa and the others up north. Where they find recordings that were made by Aerith's parents, before Hojo found them and brought Aerith and her mother to Shinra while her father was killed by Hojo's men. Just as Tifa's father was killed by Sephiroth, who later turns out to be Hojo's son. From within the Lifestream, Aerith continues to aid Tifa and their friends as they work to save the planet from Meteor.
One year later, in the events of Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, Aerith's possible presence in the Sector 5 Church, as a spiritual avatar of the Lifestream, could have been what healed both Tifa and Cloud as they lay in its flowers.
Fanon[]
This section is in need of major improvement. Please help improve this article by editing it.
Aerti is viewed as the main femslash ship of the Final Fantasy VII fandom, and is sometimes rivaled with the het ships Clerith, Cloti and Zerith. The ship's popularity grew after the FFVII Remake was released and showed a few Aerti-like moments.
Because both FFVII women appear in the Kingdom Hearts series through KHII, fans sometimes like to focus on their KH counterparts in KH related fan made work. Like MMD Art fan-comics, of the KH/FF fanon universe, and fanfics, beside the other FF and Disney characters with the original KH characters. The rare KH side of the femslash ship could also have it being rivaled with the het ship, Squaerith.
