I have rarely seen emojis -- they appear as diamonds in my Emacs on a
tty -- but my understanding is that it isn't feasible for us to define
our own.  So I think there is no way to make a GNU emoji, and no way to
tell a story about GNU with emojis.

Is it possible to express the idea of "Hello" with emojis?
