I would love some rust and/or dusk lore!
Rust and/or Dusk you say... I love the spooky boys so much 💕
Rust lore...I actually have two different versions of horrorswap I rotate, so I'll focus the one that's more similar to good ol' horrortale, in that the human fell and ultimately left, leaving Alphys to be queen. The core eventually stops working, etc etc etc, but the roles of the brothers are actually very similar to how I interpret HT, which is to say that Coal had actually taken advantage of his brother's injury to manipulate him into consuming human to stay alive.
Their roles are almost like a 50/50 split between Dove and Patch's, in what they did and their relationship with each other, but unknowingly to either, Rust learning the truth (and specifically, that his brother had lied to him) is what eventually sets him on a downward spiral to becoming as entirely paranoid and harsh as he winds up by the events of the main story. He may always be smiling, but he is very, very far from happy.

Dusk lore!! Since Rust's lore was a bit heavy, I'll provide something lighter. After Undyne became queen and Papyrus became the sole captain of the guard (as well as he primary advisor), the brief period of time before the core shut down was actually not so bad.
Things still weren't great, and the human leaving along with killing the king had certainly left a lot of monsters in the throes of grief, but the impact the human had still leaned relatively positive. That, on top of Undyne doing her damndest to get things to some level of stable led to a lull of something almost like peace, for the first time in a long time.
Calm before the storm perhaps, but for a moment, things were...alright. A little better. And some of those memories were amongst the few that Dusk retained at times after his head injury.
Unrelated but look at this plush I found earlier

papy request! choose for every diff pap a different fanfic trope <3
Oh boy fanfic tropes uhhh okay okay I will do my best! I’m not super well versed in fic and tropes so bear w/ me here lol
.
Rus (undertale) - devoted knight. Not to one person, rather a cause. His friends and loved ones, protecting them, taking care of them, by whatever means he has.
Edge (underfell) - collapse. He works himself so hard, it was bound to happen eventually. He’s not going to learn his lesson.
Stretch (underswap) - overheard at the worst possible time. Whether it was his secret spilled or he found something out he wasn’t meant to, I feel like Stretch is very good at finding himself in the wrong place at the wrong time without fail.
Copper (swapfell metal) - (platonic) slow burn. He’s a stubborn asshole but with enough goofing off and late night talks, he might open up a little, and be better off for it.
Ghost (fellswap glass) - framed. Uh oh! Looks like you’ve been framed for a crime you didn’t commit, and now it’s up to you and you alone to find a way out of this. Good luck!
The rest under the cut!
Uno (glitchedswap) - disappearance. It’s been many years since the sudden unexpected disappearance of Papyrus Gaster, but the hole his absence left still seems to be growing.
Heartfell Papyrus - soulmate birthmarks with a twist. That twist being that…he doesn’t seem to have a mark. Oh dear.
Lace (lovefell) - heartbreak in the rain. Self explanatory.
Rosewood (mafialovefell) - curse. He’s had a curse put on him, and only true loves kiss can break it...
Boss (mafiafell) - isekai. I would love to put his ass in a situation. /j but seriously. “Medical malpractice”. He is subject to experiments beyond his control. It does not end well.
Luck (mafiaswap) - lost the bet. Like rags to riches but in reverse. Will he be able to climb back to the position he once had?
Hawk (mafiatale) - poison. Uh oh! You’ve been poisoned. Is this gunna end at the hospital or the morgue?
Dove (horrortale) - second chances. He deserves a new lease on life, after everything…right?
Rust (horrorswap) - memory loss. He loses his memory in a terrible accident…but maybe that’s for the best.
Dusk (horrorfell) - life candles. And his has almost run out…
Ice (invertedfell) - (platonic) forced confessions. Trapped with a friend in dire circumstances and after a point, all they have left to pass the time is talking.
Clover (sweetswap) - flower shop. He’s always loved how colorful flowers are, even if he’s been partially colorblind since his accident.
Pictoris (outertale) - arranged marriage. But maybe it won’t be so bad after all..?
Aurigae - (platonic) slow dance. He gets pulled into dancing by a friend. He was having a terrible day, but…that helped. Maybe more than he’s even willing to admit.
Antares (outerfell) - space pirate. Is this a trope? I honestly don’t know but I love the concept and am standing by this.
Elester (demonfell) - absurd meet cute. He’s a demon, he needs to be placed in the story by extreme means, right?
Dos (glitchfell) - ghosts of the past. Something from his past is haunting him, and he can’t outrun it forever.
Void (vesselfell) - [redacted] coffee shop. He likes coffee :*)
