Old letters and book marks
Thorn and Wynn are runes that English once wrote as letters; Long s was, by Unicode's names list, common in Roman type up to the 18th century. Dotted cross is, by the same list, a mark scribes used in the margin as a highlighter. All are plain text and paste anywhere.
Where the look comes from
Dark academia is a subculture and literary internet aesthetic. The three emoji groups follow that: what lies on a desk, what stands in old halls, and the weather outside.
- A name wrapper copies the word name: paste it, then type yours over it.
- Whole sentences in these letters: gothic text generator.

Which emoji make a dark academia combo?
Two or three that set one scene. Late in the library is books, a candle and a hot drink; Rain on the quad is a rain cloud, a classical building and a closed umbrella. Each combo copies as one piece.
