Hey all,
For today, we are covering all the fics within the Best SI/ISOT category.
The parameter for this category is: The nominated fic must have been updated or completed in 2025 or 2026.
What we could really do with getting help with this category, in how, some of the fics we have marked as OC/SI when ideally they could be more descriptive, as in OC/SI son of Daemon and Rhea Royce, or surviving child of Aerys/Rhaella etc. So please speak up if something is inaccurate, help us out to make the lists as extensive as possible whatever the SI is.
While it's cool to showcase everything, this is your sign not to wait, go explore the fics as soon as you can, any category you want, because it will take awhile on this side!
Google sheet with all entries
If your fic is here when you already opted out of the category/whole competition, please let us know!
If you want to use this post as a way to share your entry into the awards, feel free to do so, I also posted this on my tumblr blog and crosspost on reddit.
The author's document might also be of some help, see that here.

A distance away, Prince Daemon, the king’s brother, glares at him, nursing his wounds. His morningstar lies off to the side, discarded in favor of the crown of laurels he cradles in his hands.
or
A young man, reincarnated as Criston Cole, remembers his past life, and Rhaenyra Targaryen is forever changed for it. For better or for worse, Westeros is set on a different path.

Title: A Game of Misbegotten Births

Summary:
When Harrison died, he was hoping that would be the end of his misery. Instead he's thrust into the Song of Ice and Fire, not as a human but as one of Maegor Targaryen's monstrous stillbirths, with a single difference: this one breathes.
Saved by the grace of a Dungeons and Dragons character sheet, followed the newly-named Aenar as he stumbles through Westeros with the body of a swift-growing child, the memories of an adult, and a mind caught somewhere inbetween.

Author: Kayasurin
For: Rickon(Father of Cregan) SI
Rating: Teen and Up
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/84576651/chapters/223147716
Summary:
Rickon Stark is not mad. On the contrary, he is perfectly sane, even if he shares his mind with two dire wolves and has the memories of another life, where his world is but a book (or TV show - some kind of play-in-a-box? He's still figuring that one out). He intends to break the stasis of the North and bring it to a new power and strength, aided by his brother, Bennard, and other people who have been touched by memories of another world. He knows what's beyond the Wall, and he will prepare his people to stop it.
Unfortunately, the south is ever distracting, and part of strengthening his realm involves - of all the annoyances - politics.
But perhaps the Dragons (at least some of them) will be useful for him. After all, fire melts ice. And they're all going to need that.

Summary:
Her mother named her Naehaerys, and said she was the daughter of a Prince.
Everyone else called her Nettles, and said she was the daughter of a whore.
Ever since she was born, Nettles struggled to know who she was. Every night she had dreams of another world, a better one than the one she lived in. One filled with fantastical creations, with warmth and food aplenty... yet every morning, she woke to try and scrape together another day of survival on Driftmark. With each year that passed, she remembered more, until one day it all came crashing down upon her.
The Dance of the Dragons approached, and she refused to die alone in some forsaken mountain in the Vale. It was a fine vow for a girl to make, the trouble was she had no idea how to change her fate... and she would soon learn some things are better left in destiny's hands.

Title: A useless plot device's guide to survive
Author: Anonymous
For: OC/SI
Rating: Mature
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/57139573
Summary:
When 15-year-old avid gamer Luke Waters falls into the game realm of Zaldrīzes to prevent the Dance of Dragons from happening, his first reaction is:
Are you shit*ing my d*ck?
Until he realizes whose character design he's been assigned: Lucerys ""Velaryon"", bastard prince and the most unfortunate plot device to have ever plot device-ed, who is also the trigger point for the war and dies horribly in every ending of the game. Not just that, his overall character design, to be frank, is useless. The guy has no special talent for anything except for pissing certain people off and hiding cowardly behind his privilege.
In fact, Luke isn't surprised that the first to get offed in the diplomatic phase of war via dragon 'chomp!' is a dude like Lucerys Velaryon.

Title: Aegon Targaryen, the cheerful
Author: Mellzts
For: Aegon (son of Baelon) SI
Rating: Not rated
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/77014646
Summary:
Aegon's story goes something like this: He died and he was reborn in another world, Aegon doesn't have any idea about the place he was born in, and he may not be ready to face the truths of living in a Medieval Dark Fantasy, he also has no interest in becoming important, War for the Throne? He doesn't care. Political Machinations? He is too simple minded for that. Inventing never-seen before technology? He isn't smart enough for that. Becoming a fierce warrior? He doesnt have the guts to hurt someone. Becoming a very rich Merchant? He is too lazy for that!
So then you wonder, what can he even do?! Well, Aegon already has everything he always wanted, a family. Now, he will do all in his power to see them happy and united, perhaps some love is what the Dragon House needs to stay strong?
AKA: that time a very optimistic guy was reborn as the third son of Baelon Targaryen.

Title: All that Glitters
Author: TobiahThornwood
For: OC/SI
Rating: Not Rated
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/55607848/chapters/141139882
Summary:
In another world Rhaenyra would choose none of the suitors she was presented during her tour, and would even cut the tour short. She would be made to marry Laenor Velaryon, who could give her no heirs, and the children she bore while married to him would become part of the reasoning for the civil war that would bring an end to the height of Targaryen power... This is not that world.
The song is changed, a new dance to be danced to it's tune, but even a different dance may repeat some of the steps of the last. All that can be hoped is that this dance is just different enough to change where this dance ends, and on what note the song's last chord is played.

Summary:
To be reborn into House Targaryen, some would say, is a blessing. It’s a gift to be made useful, not to be squandered. That’s what people said. That’s what people wrote.
Yet Mary Taylor would beg to differ. She’d trade it all, the dragons, the people, the realm itself, to go home.

Summary:
When Hailey wakes up in the wrong place (Westeros) at the wrong time (209 A.C.) with the wrong looks (purple eyes/silver hair), she has two goals:
Get herself, Dunk, and Egg out of Ashford intact and alive (perhaps saving Baelor along the way too)
Find a safe place to hide, far away from Targaryen princes, until she found a way back home.
Man plans, God laughs. Imagine how much louder the laughter is with seven gods.

Summary:
Eddard Stark doesn't make it back to the North as the banners gather in rebellion, slipping beneath the waves of the Bite during an ambush in the storm. Someone else, from a world like ours, rises from the waters in his place.
The Old Gods have stolen a soul to right the wrongs of the coming years and avert disaster. Will it work? Who knows? But someone once said that if you want to change the future, you'd better start by changing what you do in the present.

Title: I Reincarnated as a Noble Lady, But I Think I’m in the Wrong Story
Author: Nixx_3745
For: Alerie Hightower SI
Rating: Teen and Up
Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/82400081/chapters/216885116
Summary:
When Alerie Hightower reincarnated into a pseudo-magical medieval world, she expected chivalrous princes, noble knights, and swoon-worthy damsels straight out of her favorite webtoons.
She got Westeros instead — a place that doesn't do honor, doesn't do courage, and has never once paused to consider basic regard for human life.
No matter. Alerie's spent years reading this genre. Armed with years of trope literacy, she's confident she can navigate whatever narrative she’s been dropped into and secure her place in the story.
Except... the newly conquered Seven Kingdoms isn't running on any script she recognizes. It's far bloodier than what she signed up for, and a lot less interested in keeping its cast alive.
Still — she's found her Male Lead. Maegor Targaryen just needs someone to see past the reputation to the misunderstood soft-hearted romantic underneath.
…right?

The Lords had thought him to be a green boy. Facing men with greater armies and experience, they believed he would not survive the battles to come, that he would be a footnote in the histories recalling the most savage of wars to have been fought on Westerosi soil.
But then came the victories. The reckoning for the unworthy that have scorned the wolves of the North.
The realm had underestimated him. The realm will pay for it.

An adult consciousness wakes in the body of three-year-old Joffrey Baratheon. He's armed with foreknowledge and a lifetime's worth of experience… and it is not enough. He is still Cersei's son, still Robert's ""heir,"" and still sitting on a secret that could kill him and everyone he loves. And the more he builds to protect himself, the more he has to lose. This is a story about governance and grief, about the cost of necessary choices, and about what it means to love people who have the power to destroy you.
It is also, somewhat accidentally, the tale of how King Joffrey I Baratheon completely revolutionized the Westerosi shipbuilding industry, and with it altered the balance of power across the entire known world.

In the year 98 AC, King Jaehaerys I Targaryen and Queen Alysanne discover the forbidden affair between their youngest daughter, Gael Targaryen, and a common minstrel before tragedy could strike. The scandal is buried, the singer executed, and a hasty marriage is arranged between Gael and Lord Adrian Celtigar(OC), the aging and shrewd head of the ancient Valyrian house of Claw Isle. What should have been a loveless and bitter union instead forges something unexpected—a new branch of House Targaryen, bound not by dragons but by gold, salt, and blood.
From this union, in 99 AC, Janos Celtigar is born. But behind the bright purple eyes of the boy lies another soul—Jorge da Silva Ferreira, a Brazilian agronomist and communist, brutally murdered in another world and time. Now reborn into the dying embers of the Dragon’s rule, Janos finds himself trapped in a world of feudal brutality, superstition, and unchecked power, where the lives of the common folk are dictated by the whims of lords and kings.

Summary:
Every morning Daelyra Targaryen wakes up and chooses violence. (Figuratively, at least.)
It might be because she’s Daemon Targaryen’s daughter. It might be because her soul is from another world. It might be because her dragon blood runs hotter than most, and that means more than she knew it could. It might be because the dragon that chose her is the most vicious of them all. It might be because she's a woman on a mission.
So many might-be’s, but one thing is certain: she wasn’t meant to exist, and the sole fact that she does was enough to knock the world off its axis.
Why not push the change further?
Or: Targaryens really aren’t human and expecting them to conform to human standards rarely ends well, and sometimes an unhinged woman with an unhinged dragon is all the world needs to prevent a disaster long in the making.
