HoTD Viserys, I recall him running his fingers across the candles in Balerion's room and not having any sort of reaction. that has to either be his fire immunity...or leprosy? but I thought the latter would have made that even more painful.
Daemon also flew unbothered through a plume of Vhagar's fire. I'm going to assume that wasn't just a lazy edit and that had some substance to it.

The idea of Targ's being fireproof is...messy and sorta unclear.
My personal read early in HotD is that it was Viserys leprosy. But you're right, the fact of the matter is that within show canon it established that Dany is fireproof when they double down on that in late era Thrones. Within the ASOIF books, Dany is the unburnt in book one as a result of all the magics that were at play with Mirri Maz Duur's magics in 'saving' Drogo and thus sacrificing Rhaego (Dany's baby).
