When two people independently say or do something at the same time, it is customary for one to shout: "Twinkle toes!" and begin counting. Not sure why on the counting, but that's all I got.
Mary and John both said, "I wish you were here" at the same moment while talking on their phones. Mary exclaimed, "Twinkle toes!" and John just laughed.

This is when a person disappears without telling anybody where they are going and for how long. The person doing a twinkle either is found completely oblivious that they are "missing" or they return as stealthily as when they left
Person 1: Dude where did Bernie go?
Person 2: I don't know, I didn't see him go, he's doin' a Twinkle
Person 2: I don't know, I didn't see him go, he's doin' a Twinkle
