With the latest chapter of White Brigade out in Japanese, I've been able to solidify a few theories/hypotheses/concepts about the codes that RBCs and neutrophils have.

First up, the code gives you a glimpse of their seniority, since they're assigned at birth in chronological order.

The alphabetic prefix in the front (two alphabets for RBCs, one for the neutrophils) is like a modifier for that code - it indicates the "generation", and then the numbers indicate their position in said generation.

So to say, AA5100 may have a bigger number than AE3803, but with the alphabets you can tell she's definitely a little older, but still close enough to have reasonably been in the same class/batch, with the prefix going AA, AB, AC and so on. Hence you can also tell that the age gap between them is smaller than that between AE3803 and NT4201.

On the other hand, neutrophils only use one alphabet because they just... aren't as numerous as RBCs are. And reflecting in real biology about how shortlived they are and thus quickly replaced, it would be likely that when the "counter" runs out at Z-9999 it would simply rollover and reset to A-0001.

That said, this also gives us insight to the squad. 1146 is the oldest, followed by 2048, then 2626 and then 4989.

Spoiler warning for White Brigade Chapter 19!!!

As we've come to find out, Band Cell is coded 7776, and that his new rival is 9689. We can definitely tell it was a code assigned at birth due to it being the primary record of each "student" at the bone marrow school. 9689 also lashes out at 7776 about his incompetency despite seniority, confirming that 7776 is older than 9689. On relating that implied hierachy back to the squad's, it is definitely supported since 1146 has been described as the eldest brother and 4989 the youngest.

Interestingly, it does quite make sense chronologically that 7776 was a tiny myelocyte at the time when the squad were relatively young band cells released on a left shift because of this, and that at this time 9689 would be at the point transitioning from promyelocyte to myelocyte.

Either way, it's great insight for all of you who are planning to make OCs of RBCs or WBCs

A Confirmed Bachelor (AE-3803 Scenario)

Warnings: Slight fluff.

Anonymous Request: CAW: 3803 is confused why no one hits on 1146 when she thinks he's very handsome and kind and everyone in the body seems to think he's perfect/amazing. 1146 tries to tell her it's because he either intimidates others w/his stoic unfriendly demeanor, is too passive at interactions and uncomfortable outside his comfort zone outside his circle, his musings and emotional mood swings throw them off, he's the most awkward cell alive.  She still doesn't get it. -_-;

AE-3803 didn’t consider herself the most observant cell in the body. She asked questions, tried her best to stay alert and paid attention when the situation demanded it, but she never truly noticed things unless they were so obvious that everyone else knew about it or if someone pointed it out. In this situation, these factors were somewhat intertwined.

You see, she had been signing in for another work cycle with AA-5100 to accompany her. NT-4201 was assigned some time off due to injuries sustained after the most recent viral invasion, but was otherwise fine. While 5100 was directing a few fresh faces to the most recent updated map that was mounted on the wall, 3803 kept herself busy with taking note of the many oxygen canisters that she was required to deliver that day.

She had never thought about it before, but she was oddly reminded of U-1146. They were both upright, could withstand a lot of pressure, impossible to break, and there were times where 3803 was somewhat happy to carry them. Of course, 1146 was a lot better to carry and hang around with.

He was also cuter to look at… a better conversationalist…

“Who’re you thinking about?”

3803 blinked. “Mr. Neutrophil.”

5100 smirked. “I wasn’t expecting you to answer so candidly. Should I be asking why?”

“Do you think that Mr. Neutrophil is good looking?”

Eyes wide like saucers and mouth gaping like a fish, 5100 whipped back to check on her young friend. She was so in shock, 5100 found herself reeling again when she saw 3803 nonchalantly grab a spare clipboard and check the address for the signer instead of acting like she said something scandalous in front of a close friend!

How blunt can 3803 be?

It took several tries for 5100 to gather whatever sense she had left to ask, “What?”

That caught 3803’s attention.

It wasn’t the question itself, but rather, it was the way her coworker had said it. Compared to 3803, 5100 was cool and level headed, the sort of cell that would remain calm even when the body was in the throes of a great crisis. However, even 5100 fell prey to circumstances that seemed too volatile or out of the ordinary to even try treating them like everyday catastrophes.

There was no way 3803 would say something like that without breaking the facade of tranquility laced with curiosity.

“You know,” 3803 said bluntly, “attractive. Don’t you think that Mr. Neutrophil would be considered a catch for anyone trying to pursue him?”

“Are you…” 5100 choked on her original question of ‘Are you trying to pursue Mr. Neutrophil?’ to something not as obvious, “are you implying that someone out there is trying to pursue him?”

“But that’s the thing!” 3803 gestured to all the cells milling about the area. While most were other red blood cells prepping for the beginning of the cycle, there were also a number of immune cells (most neutrophils, but there were also a number of platelets and macrophages) interspersed among the populace. A few of these cells happened to glance at 3803 for her outburst, but shortly returned to their duties when she waved them off with a shy smile. “I don’t think I’ve ever seen or heard anyone say anything positive about him. Ever.”

5100, now understanding that 3803 was only concerned about her friend’s prospects, had somewhat calmed down. The brunette took a breath to collect her thoughts and to make sure that she didn’t blurt out the first thing that had come into her mind.

Her young friend wasn’t ready for that conversation yet.

“Well,” she began diplomatically, “have you considered it’s because he’s an immune cell? Most cells outside of the immune system aren’t too attracted to the cells who defend them because they can be quite… overzealous at times. Also, he’s…” No offense to 1146, but even 5100 was immediately on guard when meeting him for the first time. Not even 5100’s cool headed nature was enough to have her hold firm and steady in the face of a bloodthirsty neutrophil. “He’s not exactly the friendliest upon first meeting.”

This time, it was 3803 who openly gaped at her.

“What are you talking about? Mr. Neutrophil is so amazing!” The clipboard that 3803 had been loosely gripping in her hands was thrown aside to a nearby desk. The clatter of plastic did little to dissuade the smaller erythrocyte from ranting with vehement passion about the wonders of her best immune cell friend. “He’s kind, compassionate—have you seen him take care of Backwards Cap and Leader Platelet?—he takes care of his squad members, has a good eye for tactics and strategy, and—”

As the younger red blood cell continued to speak up about the many virtues and strengths that her friend had, 5100 couldn’t help but smile in irritated fondness. Cluelessness wasn’t always an endearing trait, specifically if it could land 3803 in trouble, but 5100 was willing to let that slide.

If 3803 could still find and embrace the negatives while actively looking for the positives in her friend, then so be it. Perhaps she’ll realize one day that there was a reason why she was so quick to his defense.

“—and... Are you laughing at me!” An enraged, but mildly amused pout turned down the corners of 3803’s lips.

“Of course not!” Feeling just a tad sisterly, 5100 dismissed professionalism completely and lightly pinched 3803’s cheek. “Talk to your neutrophil friend later. Maybe he’ll give you some better insight about his love life.”

It got exceedingly difficult to bite back a laugh at how 3803’s eyes beamed with sheer happiness at the mention of 1146.
