There should totally be some trans!Max fic. It would explain the layers and the hair and the hiding!

Other Max plot bunny: some kind of boywives thing. Possibly where Max isn't sure how he ended up with the three of them. Or possibly music producer Max's assistant arranges the boywives, mostly because he wants someone else to take over running the personal side of Max's life.
Sean is the first wife, because he was older and seemed responsible enough to take care of things, and he was experienced enough to teach Max the ways of love. Tom is second, because Max thinks Sean's lonely. Ryan is third, because he's always around and Max can tell Sean and Tom like him.
At work, Max is totally in charge, but he doesn't really exert his authority at home. He's happy enough to let them work out schedules and keep the house. Until the time he comes home and Ryan's bleeding all over his kit. Then he very firmly insists Ryan get his hand stitched up and stop playing until it heals.
Eventually, Max figures out he's in love with them. Even more eventually, they hit him over the head with the fact that they love him too.
Being who I am, this also became very kinky in my head. Max and Ryan are switches, Sean's a sub, and Tom's a voyeur.
Max doesn't know anything about kink to begin with. Ryan brings it up, after they've stopped pretending they're not all sleeping together, but before they have actual group sex: "You know how Sean is. He'll fuck you if you ask him to, but that's not his first choice."
This somehow turns into Ryan telling Max that Sean likes to be spanked and then Ryan spanking Max so he can get the idea.
And then Max spanks Sean on his night. On Tom's night, Tom asks him about it and gets off on Max telling him about it.
And then, on Tom's next night, when everyone's going to bed, Max says, "Tom and I want to watch you spank Sean." And then there's group sex.

I've also spent a lot of time contemplating girl!Sean. This is difficult because, as I've mentioned before, I'm having a terrible time conceptualizing girl!Sean. A few possible plot bunnies:
At least one incarnation of her sometimes/often wears Tom's clothes because they wear all the same stuff anyway and she doesn't have that many clothes (for a girl) and that lets her get a little more variety.
*
I was once trying to write Tom/girl!Sean/Mike in my head, and I kept getting stuck: Tom and Danielle break up (not badly, just sometimes even good things end), and Sean sort of has hopes but thinks nothing will ever come of it.
Sean runs into Bill and Mike at a bar or something, and Bill invites her to join them. She spends like half an hour telling them that they need to read The War of Art because it will change their lives.
She runs into Mike somewhere (a show or another bar) weeks or months later and he's read the book because she said he should. They talk about it, and Mike is really listening to what she has to say and engaging in the conversation. He asks her out, and she hesitates and says she has to talk to Tom.
Tom is sort of reluctant about it (duh) but says she can do what she wants. So then Sean starts dating Mike. They run into Tom out somewhere and Tom and Mike are not very happy about it, and Sean tells Mike, "Don't try to make me choose. I'll pick him every time."
And then in my head it was all weird and angsty and I could never get to the threesome part.
*
I did start writing some girl!Tom/girl!Sean kink in my head. Sean prefers rope, but can't do it herself so she has on cuffs instead while she waits in the center of Tom's bed for Tom to get home. Tom snaps a picture when she does. It's maybe unwise, but Tom usually doesn't get her whole body and rarely lets them out of her possession. She put one up for sale, once, the curve of Sean's cheek, the shell of her ear, the sweep of her hair, her eyes dark and deep. It sold out in less than an hour.
Sean says that's easy money, just the printing and shipping work, except for the work getting her like that.
Tom says, "Getting you there is the easy part."
But I don't know what I was doing with it, and I'm not sure there was anything that made it specifically about girls.

The other possibility for girl!Sean is to (a) make it not Tom/Sean and (b) switch pov.
Ryan is leading this life of happily hooking up with seriously hot women. Then at a show, one of those amazing, electric ones where everything is perfect, he looks past his kit and sees Sean and almost misses a beat because she's one of his best friends and he loves her to death, but did he always want to fuck her?
The night they hook up, Sean's wearing her own t-shirt, Tom's jeans, and a plaid shirt that she thinks used to belong to Max. They both expect it to be just a one-night stand, but then Ryan can't stop thinking about Sean and he does things like bring her daisies and something weird he found that she loves.
The daisies: Ryan's heard Sean complain about an ex who used to bring her red roses like he was checking it off a boring to-do list, so as much as he'd like to bring her red roses, he doesn't. He picks up daisies instead. He doesn't give them to her, either, just brings them over when they're all hanging out and finds something to put them in.
"Pretty," she says, smiling, when she notices them on the counter. That's all he wants, her pleasure in them.
And then there's dating and wooing and Sean doesn't get that she's being dated and wooed for a while:
They go out for dinner. Ryan drives, and when they get back, he parks the car and says, "I'll walk you up."
"Are you coming in?" Sean asks.
Ryan says, "No," and when he hugs her goodbye, he presses his lips to hers in a quick kiss.
Sean says, "Oh," and there's a quietly pleased little smile playing around her mouth. "Thank you for dinner." She slips through the door.
At some point, Tom says to Ryan, "You'd better not be fucking with her."
Ryan shoves him a little. "I wouldn't do that. Not to her."
