Initial Letter with Emoji

In some random playing around, I saw that the ::first-letter pseudo-element is happy to match an emoji. And then initial-letter is happy to bump it up in size which feels like an easy way to make a kinda fun looking list that would survive syndication and such.

A decorated letter V for a dropped capital, formally an inhabited initial, from an 1884 book about Vltava in Bohemia (Czechia). The V has a mermaid in it, & fishes & an eel swim about her. She’s naked (do mermaids wear clothes?).
Decorated initials are used in print at the start of a chapter, or at the start of a section without a title so you can find it easily.
