AITA for refusing to let another artist use my work, despite having referenced hers to make mine in the first place?
( 💎💎💎 <- for search purposes)
I (2XM) am an artist. I will not beat around the bush and will say I'm pretty skilled; I worked hard, for years and years, and I've earned it. Now, I don't steal art - if someone stole mine, I would be pretty fucking mad, so I would never do the same - but I've used other works I've seen to inspire mine, sometimes.
Y (??F) is another artist I know, and she's also good. She makes different things than I do, but it's fun seeing others work in somewhat different mediums. A while ago, she made this piece that I thought was beautiful, and I made something of my own that drew from it. I think it's the best work I've ever done, actually. I showed it off, and most of my friends recognized the inspiration almost immediately (we follow the same people), but didn't say anything of it. Y found out too, but didn't seem to care. If anything, she seemed almost flattered.
Recently, Y's work got destroyed (it was a physical thing; an accident happened, it was ruined). She cared a lot about it, and wants to try to make it again, but she wants to make it as close to how it was before as possible... so she wants me to send her mine, physically, to use as a reference.
Here is where people disagree with me: I said no. Yes, I was inspired by her work, but I created something different. It is my own. What she wants to do will take what I created and make it a footnote, something about "Thank you to F for making this possible," and my own won't matter as much anymore (she is much more popular than I am, so I would be forgotten). At least, that's what I feel would happen.
She's pissed now though, and her also more-influential friends are all saying I'm being selfish and how can I say no to her when she was the reason I could make mine in the first place. The greatest irony is, hers wasn't even wholly original either, but inspired by another famous work! I just don't see why mine should matter less than hers and I should have to give it up. So many people agree that I should, though, that I owe it to her, to the point I barely know what to think of it all anymore.
So, AITA?
"My name is Mira Miyakawa. Al calls me "Boo", Seth calls me "Sugar". I run a bakeshop in bumfuck nowhere, and I ran away from the city to escape all of... all of this. I like the color red, but pink is pretty good too. I prefer beef over chicken, I like the taste of raw cookie dough, and I would do anything for my boys. You fuck with 'em, and now?... I'm not sorry for what I'm gonna do to you."
Cassandra (Casper)
"Okay, so... slashing my best friend/crush of like a decade's tires on the little scooter he uses for work with this sick ass knife I carry for totally sane and legal reasons might seem extreme. But it's totally justified from where I'm standing."
Rienne (Rookie)
"If you had told me when I was in law school that I would be in a committed relationship with my criminal boss after graduation, I would have never believed you. And yet, here I am, gifting him a pistol expensive pen and holding his hand as he waxes poetic about my impact. I'm not sure how I got here either."
Jax (Star)
"What's up everyone, it's ya bitch AppleJax coming to you live from my bedroom as always!!!"
Masami (Angel)
"When I woke up to find a seven foot tall demon himbo standing in my kitchen and raiding my fridge for sandwich ingredients, I thought I was having the worst combination of sleep-paralysis and sleepwalking ever. Wake me up from this hell pwetty pwease"
Yin (Sunflower)
"I (2Xf) have the absolute cutest boyfriend in the world (2Xm). We're both pagan, and we both have an interest in plants. I 100% want to propose to him, but I want to incorporate flowers into the proposal. Any advice?"

The song’s lyrics reveal Sahara’s vulnerability and introspection, showcasing her talent as a songwriter. Sahara’s achievements include being a finalist in the 2022 International Songwriting Competition and Nashville’s Unsigned Find Camp, as well as securing the third spot in the Vanda & Young Songwriting Competition in 2019. Furthermore, Sahara boasts multiple QLD Music Awards, along with the 2020 Carol Lloyd Award and the esteemed Grant McLennan Fellowship earlier this year. Her music has been featured in a number of placements, including a Haagen-Dazs commercial with Bradley Cooper, and the NBC series Girlfriends Guide To Divorce. With airplay on global stations, including BBC Radio Scotland, 2XM RTE Ireland, and triple J in her native Australia, as well as Passport Approved worldwide, Sahara’s music continues to resonate.
