Mirrorstepping 

When you almost bump into someone, but move out of the way, but then they move the same way too, so you both move the other way, etc.

‘Dude, quit mirrorstepping everyone.’

Mirrorshipping

Mirrorshipping is when you or someone ships a character with an alternate version of themselves (same character,different universe) this term can also be used when let's say a character splits into two different versions that are different enough.

Not to be confused with selfcest, which is when a character falls in love with themselves (no different universe. no different personality, the same identical person falling in love with a copy of themselves.

In conclusion, mirrorshipping is when you ship a character with an alternate version/ alternate universe (AU) of themselves.
