sirius_sit_down[The video feed begins. It's obvious that someone else is holding the communicator. Sirius is sitting in a wingback arm chair, dressed in expensive robes, his hands folded neatly on his lap.]
Good evening, Barge. A small announcement. I'm graduating.
[A thin, tight-lipped smile, a far cry from the thousand-watt grin the real Sirius would have offered with his own graduation announcement.]
It's been a difficult journey. I won't pretend otherwise. I spent most of my life fighting who I really am. Even when I was faced with the broken, blood-stained truth of it. But I realised, in the end, that fighting my own nature was as imbecilic as fighting the air in my lungs. What was the point? I am Sirius Black. I am the last of the male line of the Noble and Most Ancient House of Black. Toujours Pur.
[He pauses. His eyes have never once looked away from the camera. He never seems to blink.]
I'd be remiss if I didn't thank my warden, John Watson, for the time he invested in me. I also want to thank my dear friend, Severus, for always being there. I know I can continue to count on you as I make the transition from inmate to warden.
[Private to Martha]
Dearest Martha, no need to be so insecure. Last time I checked, I wasn't in the market for a boyfriend.
Even if I was, Severus and I are just good friends.

Mozenrath isn't our Mozenrath. He claims to be a visitor. He's a fan of using insults a four year old would use. He also implied he would use magic.
