Richard,
Given that those particular two variation selectors have already given
very specific semantics for emoji sequences, and would now be expected
to occur *only* in emoji sequences:

usurping them to do something unrelated would probably not be a good idea.
For experimentation purposes, VS13 and VS14 would be safer.
