Why this must be read:

Bennett/Caroline is almost cannon in the way DeWitt/Dominic is almost cannon: rife with subtext and never a clear answer as to what went on in behind the scenes.  'time, like sand' explores the heavy subtext of  the few B/C flashbacks in the show. Here, pre-series Caroline has softer intentions then is suggested in the show, made more bittersweet as we know exactly how it ends between them.

What I also love about this story is the use of second person, which isn't for everyone, but works well here to take us inside Caroline's head and her often hard to pin down motivation.
