Aeris shouldn't be acting as a healer and a protective sister at the same time to the same person.
No, she shouldn't. But her lessons in ethics were sadly lacking, because it wasn't actually that likely that she'd be seeing patients directly. Her abilities are such that she's more likely to do a 'healing rain' ala Advent Children to cure a plague, and most of her abilities focus on working with the Planet.
Aeris should be protecting her brother especially one as vulnerable as Sephiroth. Acting as someone's healer and then threatening them?
Protecting her brother is the most important motivation for her in this scene, and why she made the offer to check Brangwen over. She couldn't think of any other way Brangwen would actually believe the threat. She's wrong, Brangwen would have believed her perfectly well if she'd made a point of taking her aside, talking to her about what happened to Sephiroth and then 'casually' commenting 'I can do that same sort of thing to you, and I will if you hurt him', but she doesn't quite realise that.
Also brainwashing? ugh disgusting loathsome. a clean death would be kinder.
Totally agree, but Aeris wouldn't be in the mood to be kind to Brangwen if she hurt Sephiroth or took advantage of him.
If/when Aeris comes into her full power and knowledge; she should look into fixing Sephiroth's brain.
Unfortunately by now that would just do real damage, since the behaviour patterns are entrenched, and there is quite a bit of real love there for Cloud.
