1 day 1 hr confidence:

medio burlones/cómicos/mamarrachos

Explanation:
The difference in Spanish between being a "bufón, burlón. cómico, mamarracho" and the literal translation of each term in English may be subtle but in the context such as above, can determine the entire correct interpretation.

Example sentence(s):

Entonces él se devolvió y de forma sorpresivamente burlona, la increpó...
Los bufones ocuparon un lugar privilegiado en la historia medieval.
