Let's store the boolean there then!!
That boolean can indicate if it's a fancy character, that way all ASCII characters are themselves but if the boolean is set it's something else. We could take the other symbol from a page of codes to fit the users language.
Or we could let true mean that the character is larger, allowing us to transform all of unicode to a format consisting of 8 bits parts.
