contents Let $Γ$ be a Coxeter diagram and let $J \subseteq Γ$. Motivated by 3-fold flops, Iyama and Wemyss study the hyperplane arrangement in the Tits cone intersection of $J$, which is a $J$-relative generalisation of the classical Coxeter arrangement. For $Γ$ of finite-type, we show that its complexified hyperplane complement is a $K(π,1)$ space for the normaliser (quotient) of the standard parabolic subgroup of the Artin--Tits group attached to $J$. For general $Γ$ we show that Brink--Howlett's groupoid, which describes normalisers of parabolic subgroups of Coxeter groups, has its universal cover described by the wall-and-chamber structure of the Tits cone intersection. We use this to show that wall crossing sequences satisfy an "atomic Matsumoto relation", generalising a theorem of Ko and answering questions raised by Iyama and Wemyss.
