I think they are seriously messed up. They have to be.

Even if we assume that they went to a point of no return out of curiosity, only told Asriel that they hated humanity to appear to be a better person (it is logical to assume that monsters don't think too favorably about the people who overran and imprisoned them for selfish reasons), and that their dark humor doesn't stem from actual cruelty, there are still two really messed up things about them:

They have committed suicide by eating buttercups, that is, a slow, painful way. After witnessing the symptomps on Asgore. This is conscious self-abuse, to say the least. They have also included probably the most innocent monster in a plan that involved the above mentioned suicide (losing his best friend in the process) and trying to kill six other humans. Hatred or not, it is not normal for a child to seriously plan on killing others, not to mention themselves.
