Your two questions are interesting, I hadn't really thought about them until now. I hate to do this, but I recently poseted a little theory/headcanon (depending on perspective of course) right here http://undertale.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:52701. I think it can answer the two questions about Chara as well. I'd prefer you to read it before the rest of this message, as I think it'll add some more background to the theory. If you don't want to though, I’ll write my response like you haven't read it.

I think Asriel absolutely sees Chara as a murder. Reason? She wanted to murder a village, her home village none the less. It's pretty simple.

Here's a harder one, why does Flowey care about her in the genocide route? He knows she’s a bad person, if not from before, then now, the whole killing spree and all that. This is where my little piece comes in. In the very last paragraph, I talk about this exact subject. Chara is sociopathic, unable to feel love. She’s the only person in the world (at least that Flowey knows) that could possibly relate to what he’s going through, not being able to feel love as well. In the section of dialogue you were talking about, the second time after trying to kill Asgore, Flowey says the following, “I just like to think there’s someone out there… Someone that I won’t get tired of. Someone like ME.” This piece of dialogue directly supports Flowey’s want to be with someone “like” him, someone that can’t feel emotion, someone that could truly be his friend, not a toy for him to play with. He believes Chara fills that role, so of course he wants to be with her again.

That brings me to the neutral ending, Flowey doesn’t seem to care about Chara then, yet he does in the genocide route? I disagree with this entirely. He says, again from the same section of dialogue you were referencing, “There’s only one person I could care about anymore. And even then, I couldn’t TRULY care about them.” Notice he puts emphasis (caps) on the word “TRULY.” I don’t think this means he doesn’t want to be around Chara, nor that he doesn’t care for her, just that even if she was back, he couldn’t feel genuine love for her. This isn’t some crazy plot twist, just him admitting to something we already know from Asriel’s story.

Uh.. yeah, that’s it. You said you’d already opened discussions about your questions before, but I couldn't find them. If you send me a link, I'll post this answer on those as well.
