And do you think that he would get along with Andrius, Megan, and Iris?
Since he's a god no one can give you the exact date of his birth/creation. In simple words, he was born/created after The One Being was defeated and the realms came to existence.
Demiral and Andrius: He knew his father. Actually, he considered adopting Andrius when Alistar and Diondra were killed, but his duties would prevent him from being a good father for him. When he found out that he has become immortal he was both surprised and terrified. He was afraid of the consequences. Did Andrius deliberate his decisions? Immortality is too much for a human being in his view. I imagine he would also help him to control his powers while being grateful that he doesn't have metal powers of any kinds.
Demiral and Megan: Ah, Kitana kahnum's wife. Demiral gets the chance to meet her whenever he pays Kitana a visit. First, he had some questions about her powers and her past. And I think he would be like a father figure to Megan. He would be happy to help her with her problems.
Demiral and Iris: He respects her and, of course, consults with her as much he consults with the other Elder Gods. He's down if Iris wants to spend time with him; otherwise he wouldn't ask her to do so considering she has many important things to do. Demiral is pretty much busy as well, so I'm not sure how these two can spend time together?
For the Mina asks, could I maybe get some headcannons of her, Megan, Andrius, and Iris?
Andrius: Let's be honest he'd spoil her. She'd have this man wrapped around her little finger the same way that her mother did. I actually envision her teen self to be a healer, and who better to learn from than her talented uncle? I can also see these two having tea parties together as Andi tells her about his travels
Megan: Definitely a big sister/little sister vibe from these two. Mina would be so excited to see her whenever Megan comes to visit. She'd love to hear all about Outworld and Megan's "pretty princess" (aka Kitana). Oh and Mina would gift her "Good luck" plushies whenever she heads back to Outworld
Iris: Varian would encourage Mina to pray to her whenever she feels lost. When Mina gets the chance to actually meet her, she'd be over the moon asking a bunch of questions. She'd be fascinated by Iris and her powers and would want to learn them (even though she cant). And who knows, maybe one Mina will offer to serve her. But there's no guarantee that Iris will say yes
What do you think of the parallels between Red Son and Mei's conversation with MK and Ne Zha's in the first part of EYD? I don't see it talked about often but it's a very clear parallel, like even the body language lines up
Red Son: "For now鈥攖his is probably one of the few places left that the Lady Bone Demons putridity hasn't reached."
Mei: "But- what if I fail everyone? What if I...lose control?"
Red Son: "*sigh* My parents have succumbed the the Lady Bone Demon's power, like countless others. You, and the noodle boy, will stop at nothing to free them. That's how I know you won't lose control鈥攜ou can't. Because your the only hope I- the only hope this world has left."

Ne Zha: "Even from here I can feel her retched aura."
MK: "Yeah..."
Ne Zha: "I fear Monkey King was right. The Samadhi Fire is the best chance we have at stopping her, the fool never should have take off on his own."
Ne Zha: "Let's make this quick- get in, get Monkey King, and regroup with the others."
MK: "Wait! What if- what if Monkey King is better off without us? What if we just get in his way?"
Ne Zha: "I've known Sun Wukong a long time鈥攈e is not the loner he pretends to be. He seems important to you-"
Ne Zha: "-So I can only assume you are as equally important to him. If there's anyone he needs right now鈥攊t's you."
MK: "Get in, get Monkey King, get out."
Ne Zha: "That's right."

Anon, you are so correct.
So, there are actually a couple of parallels here. One, you have the clear Mei and MK parallel (both asking their "what if" questions) with Red Son and Ne Zha offering support (putting a reassuring hand on the other's shoulder). However, there's ALSO a Mei to SWK parallel鈥擲un Wukong both fails everyone and loses control by the end of the episode, getting possessed by LBD:
Which is then followed by Mei eventually getting kidnapped, failing everyone, and losing control:
So then later in EYD, you have Red Son going to get through to Mei, and MK going to get through to SWK. (Though, SWK gaining control through MK's supports leads to Mei losing control, just like how in 3x10 Mei gaining semi-control of her powers through MK's support leads to SWK running off and then losing control of himself.).
Which, all of this contributes to their Chaos/Freedom VS Control/Imprisonment conflict that's been going on.
And it's also interesting, because Mei has kinda been like...following in MK's footsteps when it comes to her arc.
"I know what it's like to have a power you don't know how to control鈥攖o feel like the fate of the world is in your hands, and you have no idea what to do!" (Which, this is MK's experiences during s1-2), and then in s4 Mei loses her sword in 4x05 ("How am I supposed to protect everyone without my sword?" "A sword is powerless, without the hand that wields it", which was basically what MK experienced in s3 after he lost his staff)(There's also the "fakin' it until you makin' it" parallel). But, in a similar vein I think MK is following in Mei's footsteps for certain parts of his arc, (Our beloved 3x10 and 4x08 parallel, Red Son training Mei in 3x11 is similar to Macaque helping MK in 4x10, Mei with the Samadhi fire being the best chance against LBD like MK was their best chance against Azure, also look at this here).
I need to sort more of my own thoughts out on this, but currently this is how I feel:
ppl be like "my opt fr!!!" and it's the most sibling coded duo you've ever seen. what do you mean they wouldn't leave eachothers doors open and hide their food from the other. what do you mean they would totally get together they're currently exchanging the most foul and out of pocket insults to each other and will act like nothing happened in 5 minutes. they would trade the other for a single dime without a thought more yet engage in hand to hand combat with whoever messed with them. "do you see the vision" No I do not
