Two planets tidally locked with each other, orbiting a single star. The days do end up being the same as their orbital period, but that's only going to be 6-8 days bc they're orbiting in such close proximity.
There's a lot of other fun effects of this, like very frequent eclipses and the other planet going through phases daily on one side of the planet while the other side has no direct interaction and feels much more like our planet.
Woah that sounds a lot more complicated to explore! Best of luck with it ๐
