Summary
Or, 'How I Learned to Stress Out and Ruin Everything': a gripping tale of tears, danger, tender hearts and derring-do, in which I take on a world that isn't as made-up as I thought it was and my choices really, really matter.
[A self-insertion story that has been a long time coming but was also inspired in no small part by YourIdiotWriter's SATOKO and Tozette's Day One.]

Summary
After Daenerys Targaryen, queen of the small European principality of Westeros, discovers that she is infertile, she has six months to declare a legitimate heir to the throne, or else, under Westerosi law, it will pass into the hands of her distant cousin Robert Baratheon. With no immediate family and no children, she has no choice but to turn to the very last of the Targaryen line: nearly eighteen years ago, her late brother Rhaegar eloped with an American named Lyanna Stark. Rhaegar and Lyanna were desperately in love, but family pressures eventually prevailed, and after Lyanna died during childbirth, Rhaegar returned to Westeros to remarry, leaving their son, Jon, with Lyanna’s brother’s family in Los Angeles. His adoptive parents – partially for his own safety – never even told him he was a prince.
Now, Dany has six months and all the resources of Westeros with which to turn this grungy LA teen into crown prince material – all while keeping his royal identity firmly under wraps from the court, the press, and his ragtag bunch of friends.
(Or, The Princess Diaries AU, in which Jon Snow is Anne Hathaway and Dany is almost as cool as Julie Andrews.)

Astray in a treacherous time by reincarnation_fan

Summary
Coming to terms with being in the past was not easy, but it was impossible to deny. Arriving practically on top of a Targaryen with a living dragon made sure of that. Either he had somehow ended up in the past, or he was suffering through a very vivid nightmare.
Then, as if finding himself in the past wasn't bad enough, Jon had ended up back in time right in the middle of Targaryen family drama at its worst. And unfortunately for him, the entire House of the Dragon seemed convinced he belonged in their family.
Jon would very much like to know why everyone he met was so certain he was a long dead prince. He still looked like Jon Snow. (He had checked.) There was no way he and prince Lucerys Velaryon could look so alike, right?
As they lived centuries apart, no one living ever knew that Jon Snow and Lucerys Velaryon were identical. If not for a whim of the Valyrian gods, even Jon would have remained none the wiser.
